President Pierre Nkurunziza of Burundi has gifted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle with a rare gift of 27 Million Dollars for having a baby boy.
Mr. Nkurunziza has mockingly praised Meghan as a real ‘slay Queen’ who changed from a chippie to a royal being. He has urged married women to emulate Meghan and shun from being unfaithful to their husbands.
“We also have a special bull for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle if they visit Burundi according to our culture. The cow is black and white in colour and it is already cleansed by the elders. The meat will be prepared on olive tree leaves. The visitors will eat only some special parts of the cow,” he said.
The Burundian President is not new to controversies. Earlier this year, his government was on the spot after the president ordered arrests of five small school girls. The girls were all accused of insulting Nkurunziza by scribbling over images of him printed in their textbooks
“As stipulated by the school regulations in Article 31 paragraph 28, these five students are permanently expelled from school,” a statement signed by L’Ecofo Akamuri School director Isaie Nkinzingaabo read.
The girls were however set free after spending some few days in jail.
Nkurunziza was also on the limelight after he publicly lauded his 12-year-old daughter and gave her an undisclosed amount of money on Labour Day during a ceremony to honour the country’s top workers.
According to the state broadcaster, RTNB, the president’s daughter, Naomie Nkurunziza, was rewarded for behaving well at home. The station further added that Naomie got the cash gift because she is hard-working and ‘loves Burundian culture and sport’.
This decade-old tradition has also seen Nkurunziza reward one of his sons, Jonathan – who was aged five at the time – his wife Denise Bucumi, and one of their nannies.
