Human Rights Watch on Rwanda is a 30-year pattern: anonymous claims, no site visits or forensics, sanctions first and investigation later. Richard Johnson’s warning on @HRW still stands: https://t.co/cSTjTnzoWI
On their latest report, @HRW cannot claim accountability while ignoring its own findings: Kinshasa arms, finances and coordinates with FDLR, Wazalendo, foreign mercenaries and the Burundian army, all dangerous armed forces/militias at the core of the conflict & human suffering in eastern DRC.
It should be clear that the RDF is not AFC/M23. Any serious investigation requires impartiality, access, forensic rigor, due process, and not conclusions announced in advance, or bombastic calls for sanctions.
The path forward remains the Washington Accords with balanced mediation, in pursuit of sustainable security, dialogue, accountability and regional cooperation.

One lesson i have learned is that not every argument deserves your time. Meaningful discussion requires openness to facts, reason and different perspectives. Without that, debate becomes an exercise in frustration rather than learning.
Hon. @DaudiKabanda, with due respect, I must set the record straight. I do NOT hold a Rwandan passport. This is a deliberate falsehood introduced by Hon. Thomas Tayebwa, and the truth must be told.
We have it ON RECORD — Hon. @Thomas_Tayebwa’s own words: “In every vetting session we have to fail someone, and this time it had to be you, Dr. Muganga.” Read that again. This rejection was decided before the process even began. It was never about passports, qualifications, or integrity. It was personal. It was calculated. It was discriminatory. And in due course, we shall release the audio that proves it. Stay tuned.
Hon. Kabanda, what I experienced in that committee was not parliamentary oversight. It was hatred. It was discrimination. It was racism, directed at me simply because I am a Munyarwanda.
Let me be clear: We Banyarwanda are Ugandans. We were born here. We pay taxes here. We build institutions here. We have given our lives to serve this nation. I personally have spent decades working tirelessly for Uganda, conducting thousands of interviews, engaging with thousands of people, sitting in hundreds of boardroom meetings across 56 countries. In all those years and in all those rooms, I have never once encountered the kind of hostility that Hon. Tayebwa directed at me. Not once. And to this day, I cannot understand the depth of hatred he carries toward Banyarwanda. I do not have to take my word for it. Ask the other members of the Appointment Committee, including those from the Opposition side. They were there. They witnessed it.
So I ask one simple question: what is Hon. Tayebwa so afraid of? What remains hidden that my presence at Internal Affairs would threaten to uncover?
Uganda belongs to ALL its citizens equally. Banyarwanda included. We are not second class citizens. We will not be treated as such. This selective and discriminatory application of the law must be called out loudly, and it must stop. The law is not a weapon to be aimed at one community of our own people.
We are Ugandan. We belong here. And we will not be silenced.

I honestly thought we had moved beyond this kind of thinking. Throughout our history, many Ugandans have lived in Rwanda for years, studied in Rwanda, worked in Rwanda, built families in Rwanda, and in some cases legally acquired Rwandan citizenship and passports. Today, many of them continue to live productive lives, either in Uganda, Rwanda, or elsewhere in the world.
So what is wrong with a Munyarwanda who also holds Ugandan nationality, or a Ugandan who holds another nationality? In an increasingly interconnected world, dual citizenship is not a sign of divided loyalty. It is a reflection of modern realities. People study abroad, marry across borders, invest in different countries, and build careers that transcend national boundaries.
If we look at Europe, one of the reasons the continent has achieved significant economic and political integration is because many countries moved beyond narrow notions of identity. Citizens can live, work, study, and invest across borders with relative ease. Their focus has increasingly been on creating opportunities, facilitating trade, attracting talent, and strengthening regional cooperation rather than questioning people’s belonging simply because they have ties to more than one country.
Africa often speaks about regional integration through organizations such as the East African Community and the African Union. Yet, at times, we still struggle to accept the very principles that integration requires. We cannot genuinely advocate for free movement of people, regional markets, and continental unity while simultaneously treating dual nationality or cross-border identities with suspicion.
The reality is that Africans have always moved across borders. Many of today’s national boundaries were drawn during the colonial era and often divided communities, families, and ethnic groups that had lived together for generations. It is therefore not surprising that many people feel connected to more than one country.
This mentality of viewing identity as a zero-sum issue can hold us back. Instead of asking why someone has links to more than one nation, we should be asking how those connections can contribute to investment, knowledge transfer, trade, innovation, and stronger regional cooperation.
Africa’s future will not be built by erecting more barriers between its people. It will be built by embracing openness, mobility, and the understanding that a person can belong to more than one place while still contributing positively to all of them. That is not a weakness. In today’s world, it is an advantage. #Uganda #UOX @ntvuganda@Parliament_Ug #KiUgandaKinyuma
Today I had an excellent interaction during my vetting with the appointments committee of Parliament of Uganda as they carried out their constitutional mandate. I outlined my vision for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This afternoon in Paris, President Kagame and First Lady Jeannette Kagame join French President H.E. Emmanuel Macron, along with senior government officials, members of the diplomatic corps, academics, researchers and friends of Rwanda for the unveiling of a monument honoring the victims of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi.

“‘Ndi Munyarwanda and Banyarwanda are among the tribes in Uganda. That is a simple fact. I am not Rwandese. Before I came here, I had two citizenships—that’s the Ugandan citizenship and the Canadian citizenship.”
Dr Lawrence Muganga has addressed questions on his nationality and dual citizenship.
