Tanzania sets refugee deadline

All across the African continent there are refugees and no African country is host to more of them than Tanzania.

Many came in three separate waves from neighbouring Burundi, some arriving more than forty years ago.

With Tanzania now intent on reducing its refugee population, the government has set a deadline of July 31st for Burundian refugees to leave their temporary camps and return home.

However, some of the refugees are being given the option of taking Tanzanian citizenship, as John Ngahyoma reports from Dar Es Salaam.
