Dear national police, in all humility, thank you for acknowledging that a mistake was done. However, this is beyond individualism, accountability should not be about individual police officers, the entire institution should be held accountable. We trust that there’s a chain of command upon which these police officers are acting.
And this rises more than just one concern,
It is not just about policing people’s appearances over vague standards that the law doesn’t clearly define, it is also about the recklessness with which these issues are handled which doesn’t only affect individuals but also erodes public trust of the police that we have always believed in.
The other greater danger is creating a culture where subjective morality is allowed to masquerade as law enforcement. Today it may be a woman’s dress-code but tomorrow what else will an officer decide is unacceptable? We come from diverse backgrounds and see things differently. We can’t enforce a law based on people’s emotions and outlook on life. As responsible citizens, we believe that a country should uphold certain values but values are strongest when they are shared principles, all we are asking for is clarity of which the Rwandan penal code punishes what you call public indecency.
My favourite day of the year 💙

Listening to survivors, I often have one disorienting moment where I can’t grasp how the person survived—death seemed so certain. And then they say, “Nuko Inkotanyi ziraza.”
Happy Liberation day mon petit pays, the country that survived. May the 4th be with us 🫶🏾✊🏾 #Kwibohora30
To the men and women who sacrificed their lives for us to have a place to call “Iwacu”, may we live to honor you by carrying the mantle forward.

She didn't have a place to call home, woke up took a gun, and decided to liberate Rwanda.
Next year July, Rwanda will celebrate 30 years of #Kwibohora30#Liberation30
It's been a journey of resilience and transformation.
There is so much vulnerability that comes with mental illnesses. Don't be the one shaming them and spreading stigma, instead, spread love. Be there and listen.
