                                      First Lady of Burundi Teaches Their Youth

 

First Lady of Burundi, Denise Nkurunziza

 

On December 27, 2013 the First Lady of the Republic of Burundi Africa taught the youth of Burundi how to love their country. She told them, “The importance of good governance will cause your children’s children to eat the good of the land. You may not see the great victories but if you honor your nation and live to obey God the nation will prosper.”

Ambassador Clyde Rivers says, “It is a miracle to have a First Lady of a nation not ashamed to teach her faith to the young people of her nation so they may have a great future.”

Ambassador at Large for the Republic of Burundi Africa

As the speaker at the Samaritans Feet Barefoot Gala in North Carolina, Mayor Patrick Cannon of the City of Charlotte presented Dr. Rivers, Ambassador at Large for the Republic of Burundi Africa, with a historic coin from the City of Charlotte. Ambassador Rivers was humbled by the wonderful introduction by Mayor Cannon and he said, “Charlotte is a beautiful place and the people so very kind, what a city!” He offered high praises of this great city in North Carolina.

The Barefoot Gala was a one-of-a-kind event. Everyone at the event wore formal attire and no shoes to represent the over 3 billion people around the world with no shoes. In addition, the event was a great success as it looks to help build a school in Burundi Africa.
