Show notes

In this explosive episode of The Long Form, independent photojournalist Teddy Mazina — now living in exile after fleeing Burundi in 2015 — reveals untold truths about his homeland’s political chaos. From witnessing the failed coup against Pierre Nkurunziza to his recent trip deep into M23-controlled territory in Eastern Congo, Mazina unpacks the roots of Burundi’s crisis, the reality of life under President Évariste Ndayishimiye, and why the conflict in the DRC could reshape the entire Great Lakes region. This is a raw, insider’s look at war, leadership, corruption, and the fight for a better future.
