Front for Democracy in Burundi–Nyakuri

The Front for Democracy in Burundi–Nyakuri (FRODEBU-Nyakuri), also known as Sahwanya Frodebu Iragi rya Ndadaye, is a political party in Burundi.

History

The party was established in June 2008 as a breakaway from the Front for Democracy in Burundi by Jean Minani and eleven other party members. Supportive of the governing CNDD–FDD, it took the name "Nyakuri", meaning "genuine".

Although the 2010 parliamentary elections were boycotted by the opposition, FRODEBU-Nyakuri contested the elections, winning five of the 106 seats in the National Assembly.
