"Discipline is important. It is what helps you decide what you want, how you go about achieving it, and why it matters. It guides you to make the right choices, to respect others, to respect yourself, and to keep seeking knowledge. When you have knowledge, discipline gives even greater value to what you know. It keeps you focused on your purpose instead of allowing yourself to drift into things that do not build you, but can instead destroy you.
That is why coming here for this training, being part of this Itorero, and everything you have learned is meant to instill discipline in you. If you embrace it, it will take you far. If you disregard it or fail to apply it as you should, it may take you only so far before your progress comes to an end." President Kagame | Indangamirwa 16th Cohort #MeetThePresident
"We always ask ourselves: where are we leaving our children? What kind of people are we leaving behind? Are they continuing on the right path they were born into, the one their parents built and entrusted to them? Or will everything that has been achieved have been in vain? All of it can go to waste.
People liberated this country. They put in place policies to bring Rwandans back together, policies that would drive development, so that Rwanda could move forward instead of remaining a poor country dependent on others. Are you going to let all of that be undone? Please, don't. I ask you not to. Do not be the ones who bring about such a tragedy." President Kagame | Indangamirwa Cohort 16 #MeetThePresident

“I hear what is popular among young people these days: vibes. I have nothing against good vibes. Vibes are not just for young people. Even those of us who are older can enjoy them. But if we are going to enjoy the vibes, we must have something solid to stand on, please. Don’t invest in vibes, invest in the foundation where you can now vibe. Because if there is no foundation, it won’t last.
We want things that are sustainable. We want to build a society that is resilient. You can’t built a society that is resilient on vibes. But a resilient society can vibe.” President Kagame, Chairman of the RPF | RPF Bureau Politique.
