The Shame that is Burundi and Rwanda

Burundi and Rwanda, countries that have recently known genocides in Africa, are taking African politics decades back. While the incidents of political leaders killing their rivals have generally declined in many African countries (compared to the immediate post-colonial periods), political leaders in Burundi and Rwanda are taking the continent back to that time when political leaders killed their opponents or sent them into exile. That is why the upcoming elections in Burundi and Rwanda should be called out for the farce that they are.
