“Do we really accept that, as black people, we are somehow less human and inferior?

Accepting it is not simply a matter of saying “yes.” No one will ask you that question directly. You can even say “no,” but if you behave in the very ways that brought us to the kind of history we have lived through, then, in reality, you have accepted it. You have diminished yourself. And your actions become the evidence. The evidence is in doing the very things that others did, or in trying to justify them with explanations that should never be accepted.

There are no two ways about it. Good politics and a good ideology produce positive outcomes. Bad outcomes come from bad ideas. You do not need any other evidence.

Many of you are still young. You go abroad to study. Under normal circumstances, there is nothing they know that you cannot also learn. But you can come back having absorbed ideas without questions, ideas that take you away from who you are and try to turn you into something else, something that is not yours.

Whether those ideas are good or bad, there is one illness I do not think we will cure anytime soon: when, in your own mind, you stop being yourself and begin wishing you were somebody else. Why would you want to become someone else? To achieve what? In our own history, with everything we have been through, that is exactly how we lost our way.

And then you wait for someone from outside to tell you, “This is wrong,” and you immediately agree, without realizing that what is being condemned is you. It is about stripping you of your identity, and you willingly accepting it.” President Kagame | Unity Club Meeting.

The financing conversation was central to this year’s Inaugural Convention on South-South and Triangular Cooperation. A dedicated plenary on Leveraging South-South Cooperation to Finance the Sustainable Development Goals, featuring Herbert Asiimwe (@RwandaFinance), @GomeraM (@UNDPSouthAfrica), and @JKananura (@Kigali_IFC), moderated by Dr. Olugbemiga Adelakin (@UNFPARwanda), focused on how #SouthSouthCooperation can move beyond solidarity alone, towards structured, mutually beneficial partnerships that strengthen financial governance and accelerate progress on the 2030 Agenda.

Discussions highlighted the importance of institutionalizing #SouthSouthCooperation, moving away from ad-hoc agreements toward durable frameworks that can track and scale impact.

The panel emphasized defining shared principles for equitable partnerships rooted in horizontal peer learning and mutual economic benefit. Finally, the speakers focused on enhancing loan management and financial capacity across the Global South by strengthening local governance, mitigating risks, and leveraging regional hubs like the @Kigali_IFC to mobilize capital.

“When you see someone give himself so fully that he is even ready to lose his life, then serving the country at the level we have reached today, compared to that kind of sacrifice, should really not be too much for us.” President Kagame | Swearing-in Ceremony of New Government Officials.

“Leaders often should not look at themselves alone. They are supposed to come last, not first, in sharing the benefits that come from doing things well.

Too often, however, it is evident that some people put their own interests first.

Many even add arrogance to it, forgetting that ours is a service to the nation, not a contest between one person and another. The interests of the country must always come first. And when you serve the country well, the truth is that you too are among those who benefit. What matters is for people to see their duty that way.” President Kagame | Swearing-in Ceremony of New Government Officials

“Air connectivity, at its core, is about Africa’s ability to act collectively and obtain concrete results. For decades, we have spoken about integration, trade and free movement. We know what has to be done. We just have to do it.” President Kagame | African Air Transport Convention & Expo 2026

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

“A single market works best, when rules and standards are predictable and consistent across jurisdictions. The institutions mandated to lead this work already exist, and they deserve our support. The same principle applies to visa policies.

In Rwanda, we removed this particular barrier because we wanted people to visit, connect and discover opportunities. And as we know, it is just the right thing to do. We saw stronger business activity, increased tourism, and expanded air links.

Experience, therefore, shows us that openness and cooperation are powerful drivers of development. No single region has unlocked its potential, while remaining fragmented. Air connectivity opens immense opportunities and possibilities.” President Kagame | African Air Transport Convention & Expo 2026
