The coordinator of this organization, Dr Édouard Nkurunziza, indicated that this rolling stock has a value of 114 million Fbu, promising that a vehicle will also be granted to each provincial office of the same health entities to strengthen the performance of supervision and supervision of health promotion technicians and community health workers.

The Director General of Public Health, Mrs. Cléophile Akindavyi expressed words of thanks for this donation to the address of the Kingdom of Belgium, through the support of Memisa Belgium. To the beneficiaries of the motorcycles, she recommended that they take more of a qualitative leap in the performance of their duties.
