Burundi Coup Leaders Surrender.. by Ashleyma77(m): 8:03am On May 15, 2015
Loyalist troops in Burundi early on Friday detained at least three leaders of a failed coup against President Pierre Nkurunziza, with an AFP reporter hearing the arrest by telephone.


The coup leaders’ spokesman, Venon Ndabaneze, was speaking to AFP confirming that the putschists had decided to surrender when loyalist troops arrested him, deputy coup leader Cyrille Ndayirukiye and another senior figure among the mutineers.
AFP remained on the line as the leaders were detained.

The leader of the coup attempt, former intelligence chief General Godefroid Niyombare, also said he was surrendering.

“We have decided to surrender,” coup leader General Godefroid Niyombare also said by telephone, adding that troops loyal to the president were approaching him.

“I hope they won’t kill us,” he added.
It was unclear what happened to him.

No soldier, you'll be given Gold plaque and honorary awards undecided

I would have loved the Military overthrow though, that President has been on seat for too long. Military action is the only way to unseat him.

When we all thought stability has fnnally returned to the country. Actually that is not the right way to go, you don't solve illegality with illegality. May this ''blood sucking president'' honourably reversed his devilish ambition. Like if you also pray so...

Sometimes we African countries usually draw our country backward...

How can some people decided to move from grace to grass, fry pan to fire and from democracy to military rule

We Africans we need to wise up more than planning coup in order to correct democracy lapses

That man is very foolish. Didn't he read history? You can't plan a coup you know you can't succeed. Is simply a death penalty. He is a madman.
