Two years into his third term, Burundian President Pierre Nkurunziza is focusing on the 2020 general elections, asking Burundians to raise funds for the elections.

He recently visited his native village of Ngozi in the northern part of the country, and deposited about $3,000 in the government’s account as part of his contribution to inspire other citizens to follow suit.
