Léonidas Sindayigaya, spokesman for the Ministry of Hydraulics, Energy and Mines announced on December 4 that the slowdown in the supply of petroleum products that has been observed in recent days is due to the logistical problem that arose in the fuel sector.
The Ministry reassures the Burundian population. “The supply of diesel fuel at gas stations will resume very soon,” said Léonidas Sindayigaya. He calls on consumers of petroleum products and various partners in the fuel sector not to panic.
Mr Sindayigaya promises that the government will find adequate solutions to this situation. The ministry calls on the various services in Bujumbura as well as those inside the country to fully respect the established order in this sector.
