Why are Rwandans so passionate about President Paul Kagame and Rwanda? Everywhere you look, it’s Rwanda this, Rwanda that. Kagame this, Kagame that.
Here’s how you know a country truly works: Rwandans aren’t afraid of their police. As simple as it sounds to Rwandans, other countries worldwide can’t relate.
In fact, in Rwanda, over 90% would tell you they feel safe around the Rwanda National police and Rwanda defence force. No corruption, no intimidation, just warm hospitality. (Small cases of indiscipline that raises amongst these forces, are dealt with accordingly and Rwandans know this)
Everything functions: electricity, IT in every service you need, safety, equality, cleanliness, name it. We are still a developing countries but we have plans in place on how to overcome this and that.
Mind you, in 1994 Rwanda’s economy collapsed really really bad. GDP growth turned negative. It was the worst country in the world. The absolute worst.
President Paul Kagame, together with Rwandans, built Rwanda into what you see today. That is why we all come together to protect what we have. We have our differences, but when it comes to defending Rwanda and President Kagame, we set them aside and stand united. We hit back accordingly.
When any outside force tries to cause chaos among Rwandans, that's when they realize Rwandans are built differently. They all defend their country however they can. Some people have tried to divide Rwandans and failed miserably.
Rwanda is proud to have hosted this historic UCI Road World Championships. I congratulate all the riders who competed across our capital city for their remarkable achievements and resilience. My sincere appreciation to my friend, David Lappartient @DLappartient, the UCI team, our partners, the security organs who kept the race route secure and the people of Rwanda whose energy and support made #Kigali2025 truly unforgettable.
This afternoon at Urugwiro Village, President Kagame received former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta, one of the EAC-SADC Facilitators for the Eastern DRC peace process. Their discussions focused on the ongoing efforts to achieve durable peace in Eastern DRC and address the root causes of the conflict.

🚨🇨🇩DR CONGO AGREES TO PEACE TALKS WITH M23 REBELS
After refusing for months, Congo will now send a delegation for direct talks with M23 rebels in Angola on Tuesday.
Facing military defeats and fading regional support, President Tshisekedi appears to be shifting strategy.
M23 rebels have acknowledged the invite but demand Tshisekedi publicly commit to negotiations.

“This war in Congo, people have tried to make it Rwanda’s war, but it is not Rwanda’s war. Rwanda did not start this war; rather, what those who started it wanted, is what we are fighting against. And that is what I am going to explain to you.
This war has its origins in the history I just mentioned. Some people who are called Rwandans found themselves on the other side of the borders that define Rwanda today.
It was not Rwanda that took them there. Rwanda did not move Rwandans to Kisoro in Uganda. Rwanda did not move Rwandans to Masisi, Rutshuru, and other places. Rwanda did not take them there.
Now, for those who found themselves there, if the governments of those countries want to tell them, ‘Get up and go back to where you belong, to Rwanda,’ if that is their decision, then they should expel them along with the land they live on, and remain with only what belongs to them.
If you claim to act in truth or seek peace, as all people do, then you must respect people’s rights.
Without a doubt, when you deny people their rights, they will fight for them, that is the fire I was talking about.
And when you drag Rwandans into this situation and blame Rwanda because these other countries do not want the people who are there, what do you expect us to do? We will stand up for ourselves .” President Kagame | #KwegeraAbaturage
🚨🇷🇼 PRESIDENT KAGAME: THE GENOCIDE WAS PLANNED LONG BEFORE 1994
“The genocide was planned well before, there was probably a power struggle, and the Hutus killed their own leader to create a pretext for it.
Bagosora was the architect.
He told people he was going back to prepare an apocalypse.
He was tried in the international tribunal for Rwanda for exactly that.”
