TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY FRANCOIS AUSSEILL -- Pacifique Nininahazwe, the Delegate General for the Forum for the Strengthening of Civil Society (FORSC), an organization for 146 Burundian civil society associations, speaks to journalists at his office in Bujumbura on May 11, 2010. Pacifique said during the interview that "here (Burundi), the civil society is considered like a political opposition". Human Rights Watch has urged Burundian authorities to prevent pre-election violence, as fierce competition between the ruling party and four or five strong opposition movements fuels tension between militants.
