How do we spend over a month now with no water. How do you expect us to live? Something needs to be done and I don’t understand even why we have to tweet for a basic need. This is my second tweet and still nothing has been done, I have got no response - /1
Whatsoever. No dms were sent to me or to the tweet my sister made. This is getting ridiculous, 4 full weeks and now we are a Wednesday of the 5th week. This is unacceptable and we need it fixed ASAP.

Imagine trying to sound deep by comparing a revolution to breakfast. 💀
Your brain said “nuance,” but your tweet said “Twitter philosopher in struggle mode.” 😂
Boy Log out
Unlike what the international community will have you believe, the idea that a political solution is necessary to solve the conflict in Eastern DRC is far from new. It is what Rwanda has been calling for, for YEARS. It is exactly what President Tshisekedi has openly and REPEATEDLY refused to do. And we will not join you in pretending otherwise.
The underlying message of the selective outcry is not that there is a sudden genuine concern for the plight of a country that everyone knows is a failed state. The message is clear: the decision made 30 years ago—that the lives of Rwandans are expendable in the face of geopolitical interests—still stands today.
That is why the leadership of DRC is enjoying the perks of sharing the same interests as their masters: talk crazy, recruit genocidaires and European mercenaries to fight your wars, sit back, relax, and let the international community bury the real issue.
What every resolution and statement is calling for is an immediate return to business as usual: a nation that must remain a lawless playground where leaders get their cut to go buy castles in Brussels, the international community thrives off the business of peacekeeping and poverty alleviation programs, and their companies protect their profits.
Every country throwing its weight behind DRC knows they would never tolerate a fraction of the kind of security threats Rwanda has been facing for 30 years.
The gaslighting is deliberate because the truth is bad for business. It turns out that in this equation, the citizens of either country don’t actually matter, and in the end, their goal is NOT in fact a path to peace.
It has been quite a trip watching panafrican activists , decolonialists become infuriated that Rwanda would reject a colonizer’s poisonous aid, rejoice over imperialist sanctions on African freedom fighters and remain mute about European mercenaries wreaking havoc in DRC. Smh.
Happy Heroes Day! Today, we honour our national heroes who upheld the very values of unity, truth, and justice that define our country today. It is the responsibility of all of us, young and old, to face challenges with fearlessness and integrity, to stand up for what is right and to continue building a nation that defies all expectations.
Rwanda was the only country in the world to sound the alarm on the recruitment and use of European mercenaries, by President Félix Tshisekedi of DRC, in total violation of a 1977 OAU Convention and a 1989 UN Convention.
Neither the UN Security Council nor the European Union, let alone the countries of origin of these mercenaries, ever condemned the outsourcing of this war, by the Government of Kinshasa, to these "barbouzes".
Following their defeat and the fall of Goma, the mercenaries fled to a @MONUSCO compound, where the UN peacekeepers protected them. And their governments requested Rwanda to facilitate in their evacuation, through Kigali, which we accepted.
