Burundi government authorities thanked the UE for their partnership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would like to thank the EU country members for their support. After Bujumbura central market caught fire, the EU showed their concern through their aid equivalent to more than 4million Euros that helped in the rehabilitation of six peripheral markets namely Kanyosha, Musaga, Jabe, Ngagara, Kinindo and Kinama as well as the construction of Ruziba new market. We recommend traders to protect theirs goods in insurance companies\u201d, said Pascal Barandagiye, Minister of the interior.<\/p>\n<p>The EU Ambassador said the rehabilitation of those markets is one of the initiatives to strengthen partnership with Burundi \u201cWhen Bujumbura central market burned in 2013, the EU ambassador of the time came on spot and agreed to help. It is in this perspective that Ruziba market has been constructed and six others rehabilitated in peripheral areas in Bujumbura. We hope the 1680 stalls available will be useful to Bujumbura people. This is one among other projects we do in partnership with Burundi government\u201d, said M. Wolfram Vetter, the EU Ambassador.<\/p>\n<p>People expressed their satisfaction but said they are doubtful about the distribution of the stands \u201cI am very happy but I fear we won\u2019t be able to get back our stands. You see now how the market looks like. It will be attractive to rich people and probably we won\u2019t get our places\u201d, said a young man met at Ruziba new market.<\/p>\n<p>The Bujumbura mayor said people who have a market registration card will have their stand. He encourages the population to take care of the market and work hard for both their economic empowerment and country\u2019s development.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The government of Burundi with the EU inaugurated six markets rehabilitated and one newly constructed in Ruziba, Kanyosha zone in Bujumbura on Wednesday 10th August 2017.
