00:25It is a bill that aims to strengthen the stability of the regional banking sector.
00:31Presented by Minister Yassine Fall, this text is part of a reform initiated in 2018 by
00:39the BCIAO to adapt the regulation to international standards.
00:43According to our colleagues, MPs have widely supported the initiative while recommending

00:59foreign investments in strategic sectors.
01:03In Burundi, the CNDD-FDD mobilized this weekend a massive crowd in Moyinga, less than three
