The military dictator of East African country Burundi has decided to fire all married government officials who have sidechicks.
Better pray this doesn’t happen in Ghana because we would have no government left!
Burundian President General Evariste Ndayishimiye announced the new measure as the next step in a long-running government campaign to ‘moralise society’.
According to the directive, every married government official who has concubines, or as they are more commonly known, sidechicks, faces the sack.
They have to get rid of them or probably make sure they are not caught.
Minister for Internal Security, Gervais Ndirakobuca, announced the directive.
According to him, all married government officials with ‘illegal unions’ outside their marriage would be dismissed.
Stage Two of ‘Moralise Society’ plan
The second step of the ‘moralise society’ plan, this directive is in honour of late Burundian President Pierre Nkurunziza.
In May 2017, President Nkurunziza, a born-again Christian, announced his great plan to moralise society.
He passed a law requiring couples within the country to get married by December 2017 or face legal consequences.
According to him, there was a population explosion in the country caused by men dating many girls simultaneously and impregnating them.

“We want Burundians to understand that everyone is responsible for his life, we want order in this country,” then-Interior ministry spokesman Terence Ntahiraja told AFP news agency.
Nkurunziza died in 2020, leading to military General Gervais’ takeover.
