Africa Roundup: Key political, economic and security developments shaping the continent and beyond

It's time now for our Daily Discourse. Wednesday marked 64 years since Burundi and Rwanda gained independence from Belgium, after first being colonised by Germany. The two neighbours in Africa's Great Lakes region share deep historical and cultural ties, but they have followed different political paths since 1962. This morning, we begin our focus in Burundi, reflecting on the country's journey since independence, the challenges it continues to face, and what lies ahead. To help us unpack these issues, Peter Ndoro spoke to the capital, Bujumbura, by Great Lakes region researcher and political analyst Patrick Hajayandi.
