Some Men still live in rental houses because everyone depends on them at home.
Most can’t even afford cars because their salaries feed and educate so many people. Today is dedicated to those men who wake up everyday to work hard so that their families are well taken of.
"They mean so much to me and I'm proud to represent them on the inside of my jacket."

Minister of State @yves_Iradukunda welcomed a delegation from @ANSYS led by Mr. Lou Major, Managing Director for Africa, for the signing of an MoU between MINICT and Ansys. The agreement establishes a single framework through which universities and polytechnics can be onboarded to access Ansys simulation software and licenses, supporting wider adoption of simulation tools across institutions.
The MoU supports the introduction of simulation into teaching and learning through training, lectures, demonstrations, and industry connect sessions with students and lecturers. It is aligned with ongoing efforts to strengthen the link between academic training and industry requirements, and to enhance the development of practical engineering skills relevant to the evolving digital economy.
I remember April 1994 as if it were yesterday.
This short testimony goes to the youth, but especially to those who dare to speak of a “double genocide.”
I was not hunted.
But I remember how Tutsis were hunted.
I remember conversations with my Tutsi peers.
Fear in their eyes.
Total despair.
Wondering where to hide.
I remember Tutsi neighbours trying to return to their places of origin, hoping to find safety, and never making it.
Some were killed on the way.
Others were killed when they arrived, in places they believed would protect them.
I remember churches becoming places of animosity.
Places of slaughter.
And I remember not understanding how people could suddenly become so cruel.
There was a roadblock near our home.
People were stopped and asked to present their IDs.
If your ID said Tutsi, you were to die.
If you had children, they were to die, no matter their age.
If you were pregnant, the unborn child was to die first.
The unspeakable had become normal.
There was a nearby forest.
Killers had given it a name, CND.
And we would hear them say they had taken people to CND.
That is how death was spoken about.
Casually. As if it meant nothing.
No one questioned it.
Those who could ask were the same ones killing or giving the orders.
At no point during the Genocide against the Tutsi did I hear of Hutus being hunted for being Hutu.
Tutsis were hunted. Systematically. Ruthlessly.
Yes, some Hutus were killed because they were mistaken for Tutsi.
Yes, some Hutus were killed because they refused to kill, or because they chose to hide and protect Tutsis.
Yes, many Hutus died on the way to exile, mostly from cholera.
But they were never hunted to death for being Hutu.
Let us not distort history.
Let us not equalise what was never equal.
To the youth, Rwanda was once dead.
What you see today did not exist.
And yet, we rose.
We rebuilt.
We chose unity over division.
Today, Rwanda stands strong, among the fast-developing nations, guided by visionary leadership under H.E. Paul Kagame.
Under Inkotanyi, who stopped the genocide when the international community failed to act.
Our dignity was restored.
Today, amahanga aratwubaha.
This is not something we can ever take for granted.
We must stand together to protect our country and our leadership.
We must stand together to fight any harm against Rwanda.
We must stand together against any form of genocide ideology.
We must stand together against denial, so that “Never Again” becomes a reality.
Today and forever.
As our President said, Rwanda cannot die twice.

PM of Barbados on H.E. President Kagame.
"Since I last saw you, I visited your Memorial, and I must tell you that for me seeing you again, is a very emotional moment because you are a giant among men. And I feel the need to pay tribute to you tonight"
I got bone to pick 💀 Specifically with the prices of Kigali restaurants, events, brands,.. What is happening here ? Why are we fooling ourselves?

"Our history has taught us many lessons that we must build upon. Many of them involve pain and difficult times. But even with those hard moments, despite the many challenges our country and our people have faced, the most important part is that Rwanda did not disappear.
From the lessons that our history teaches us, and from what we have learned from what happens in different parts of the world, we see there are some people who want to act as if they created other people. But that is not true.
This means that we, as a people, decide for ourselves, we choose what is right for us, and we work to provide for ourselves. And even if the things that help sustain us may not be complete, and may be supported by help from elsewhere, they must add to what we already have; they do not replace what is ours. They do not strip you of the rights you inherently possess. You are who you are, a Rwandan from Rwanda. The help we receive should add to what we already have. You might express gratitude to whoever provided that support, but this does not give them the right to behave as though they created you. That must never happen." President Kagame | Meeting with RDF, RNP, RCS Officers and other Ranks.
Today we celebrate Rwanda’s Liberation Day, a turning point that restored dignity, hope, and unity. We honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

I smile when people say we need strong institutions but NOT strong leaders. Truth: We need strong men & women (strong in the right manner -visionary big thinkers) to build strong institutions. There’s a reason why Rwanda works, why Singapore became what it is, why China rose.
