Avuga ko ubu Leta y’u Burundi yahagaritse imikoranire na biriya bigo, kuko yasanze byaribaga, ntibisore kandi bigacukura mu buryo bwangiza ibidukikije.
Bunyoni yabibwiye Abasenateri, ubwo umwe muri bo yari amubajije uko umusaruro uturuka mu bucukuzi bw’amabuye y’agaciro ungana.
Yababwiye ko hari ibigo byamaze imyaka ine bicukura ariya mabuye ariko bidasora.
Ubwo Leta y’u Burundi yabazaga bamwe mubayobora biriya bigo, Bunyoni avuga ko babasubije ko nta kintu basanze mu butaka, ahubwo ko bateganya guhindura uko bacukuraga kugira ngo noneho ‘bagere ku mabuye nyakuri.’
Kuri we ngo birababaje kuko amakuru atangwa n’ibigo by’imari n’iby’imigabane byo mu Bwongereza byerekana ko hari amafaranga yinjira mu bigo byo mu Bwongereza byacukuye mu Burundi, ariko wareba mu kigega cy’u Burundi ntigire icyo usangamo bashyizemo.

Ikigo cya mbere gifite uburenganzira bwo gucukura zahabu y’u Burundi ni ikigo cyo muri Uganda kitwa Machanga Ltd.
Intara ya Muyinga niyo ibamo zahabu nyinshi. U Burundi kandi bucukura nyiramugengeri nyinshi.
