Yves Nzobatinya, 27, arrived in Rwanda from his native Burundi in 2016 as a refugee.
Nzobatinya says that moving forward, Burundians and the world were watching the newly elected president Evariste Ndayishimiye to bring all those languishing in refugee camps back home to rebuild their country.
In April 2015, Rwanda granted refugee status to the first wave of over 11,000 Burundians who had crossed into the country.
The above total includes Burundian refugees who fled since April 2015, as well as the smaller number who had sought asylum in Rwanda prior to April 2015.
Most Burundian refugees in Rwanda live in Mahama Refugee Camp in Kirehe District.
