The president of Burundi, Pierre Nkurunziza, a born-again Christian, is currently taking the lead in building free primary schools in his country. In addition to expanding access to education, the Burundi government is offering free medical care for pregnant women and children under age 5 to help reduce the nation’s child and infant mortality rates. The education and health-care projects are part of Nkurunziza’s efforts to bring econciliation and development in a nation where some 300,000 people died during a 12-year civil war between the minority Tutsis and the majority Hutus. Nkurunziza, who was saved while reading a Bible in 1997, says, “Everything we do we start by praying and end by praying because we have to remember to put God before everything.”
