Talk:Pierre Nkurunziza

message: Pierre is listed as having 6 kids, but his wife is listed having 5.  Did he have a child with someone else?    — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.131.186.65 (talk) 15:16, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

message: This article makes reference to awards such as an honorary PhD given by Latin University of Theology in California. A quick check reveals Latin University of Theology in California to be a defunct degree mill, not accredited by any organization recognized by the US Department of Education, which was run out of a strip mall in Torrence.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:1E60:EF70:4C1B:4D6C:76B4:52D9 (talk) 11:58, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Dubious Awards

message: Good article. I feel, though, that we also need some mention of the fact that, according to Amnesty and Human Rights Watch, CNDD-FDD military strategy under Nkurunziza's leadership included the use of child soldiers, and deliberate killings of civilians (eg. http://hrw.org/english/docs/2003/12/21/burund6789.htm). Nkurunziza currently enjoys immunity from prosecution under a 2003 "de facto amnesty" but many Burundians believe that he's technically culpable for crimes against humanity. It's likely this will resurface at some point. 80.43.5.75 12:04, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Some passages are clearly lacking neutrality, so that parts of the article almost read like an campaign advert (“courageous”, “wise”, etc.)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.180.14.131 (talk) 13:29, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Neutrality

message: This article is incredibly biased, for a nation that is edging towards civil war to have the president described in such incredibly uncritical terms in very wrong. Note the juxtaposition of the section on this man banning jogging and the rest of the article describing him as a champion of the poor and a sporting hero.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angus 5:11 UTC 19/6/2014    — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.168.217.145 (talk) 05:13, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

message: Nothing distinguishes Born again Christians from Christians, Born again Christians does not constitute a separate religious body. I'm going to change the religious affiliation to something appropriate. Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 14:21, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

message: I tried to remove/fix some of the POV nonsense in the personal life section, can we remove the tag now? --AmaryllisGardener talk 00:44, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  POV tag, time to remove it? 

message: It should be mentioned in this article that in English language context the deceased president of Burundi is also referred to as Peter Nkurunziza (not Pierre Nkurunziza). It is important to understand that Peter Nkurunziza and Pierre Nkurunziza are in fact the same person.
I will include some examples referring to the former president as Peter Nkurunziza:
*Natacha meets Burundi Head of the State Peter Nkurunziza, regionweek.com
*The  president  of  the  Republic  of Burundi is His Excellency Peter NKURUNZIZA.
* WHISPERS IN THE CORRIDORS OF RWANDA’S DIRECTORATE OF MILITARY INTELLIGENCE – DEATH OF MUTAMA PETER NKURUNZIZA., rpfgakwerere.org
You can find more on the internet.--2003:CF:3F24:C33B:1898:7FA2:52:6AD0 (talk) 18:15, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: I think better sources will be needed for this. It is possible that Nkurunziza anglicized his name, but these sources do not prove it. Mainstream English language newspapers in Europe, North America and East Africa always refer to him as "Pierre". The sources cited in the Regionweek.com article use "Pierre". —Brigade Piron (talk) 14:25, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

text: On reflection, I think it's likely that "Peter" is just a mishearing of "Pita". —Brigade Piron (talk) 17:08, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
