To the young people of #Rwanda, being young is not enough. You cannot afford to waste any opportunity. Do not let the fear of failure or taking risks stand in the way of who you can be. Claim your rightful place in the world, no one will hand it to you

“Between dealing with existential threats and dealing with threats to punish Rwanda, without second thought, I will turn my guns to the existential threat.
We are not dealing with a situation that is new to us, we have faced existential threats for years. We had the worst tragedy in 94. You really come to me and start threatening sanctions because I am defending myself? You think I have any iota of fear for that?”- President Kagame
