INCOMPETENCE AND POOR SERVICE DELIVERY
The Embassy Staff dealing with Visas applications are rude and incompetent. They don't know what are the requirments and people spend days and days looking for the outcome. The receptionist does not pick the phone, etc. Something must be done with those incompetent personnel. It is a shame for our Embassy and RSA.

Incompetence
I have had a very bad experience with the office in Bujumbura, and find the staff employed there unable to do their work competently. I have asked to see my Ambassador and still waiting a response! Communication is extremely bad.
