2016, he jailed 11 pupils & expelled 300+ over the same. His face shouldn't be on books. pic.twitter.com/xOCpunXj3v
Stop being petty Nkurunziza. Scribbling has never been a crime. #FreeOurGirls pic.twitter.com/aPrUC85PxZ

Burundi has freed schoolgirls detained for doodling on President Pierre Nkurunziza’s picture in textbooks. It wasn’t surprising that the 7 girls were arrested. The big puzzle is what Nkurunziza’s pictures are doing in textbooks. What are they teaching in Burundi? #FreeOurGirls pic.twitter.com/VUcm4Z8zC7
