Disclosing this in a statement signed by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, President Buhari made the pledge while receiving special envoys of President Pierre Nkurunziza of Burundi at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

According to the statement, the envoys, Maj.-Gen. Evariste Ndayishimiye and Ambassador Dieudonne Kwizera, briefed President Buhari on recent political developments in Burundi.


Buhari noted that Nigeria would continue to support all efforts aimed at achieving political stability in Africa because whatever happens elsewhere in the continent affects Nigeria directly or indirectly.

The President also expressed hope that all warring factions in Burundi should resolve their differences peacefully and learn to work together.
