Avec Louise Mushikiwabo, nous avons fait le point sur notre coopération et les préparatifs du Sommet de la Francophonie prévu en novembre au Cambodge.
Nous partageons une même conviction : renforcer la solidarité et l’action collective au service de la paix. #Francophonie
In Kigali if MTN mobile money is not working, the economy stops; people forgot how to carry cash. It is now essential to have Airtel money also. Meanwhile, Rwandans are relatively good trust people. Strangers accept to give a service & you pay later. Kudos to motos & taximen.
As we approach the end of the year, I want to share one of the most unforgettable experiences from this past year in the beautiful country of Rwanda. I was invited by the Government of Rwanda, as an Arsenal ambassador, to witness the country’s remarkable work in environmental preservation especially the protection of its ecosystems and the reintroduction of gorilla families. From the very beginning, the dedication of local communities stood out, turning tourism into a sustainable, locally driven economy.
Rwanda’s leadership in addressing climate change left a strong impression on me.
Monthly community waste-collection days practised not only in Kigali but also across rural areas, show how collective action can create meaningful change. It’s an approach many countries could learn from. 🌱
I had the honour of meeting President @PaulKagame to discuss Rwanda’s long-term sustainability strategy, and I was also invited to take part in the incredible yearly naming ceremony of a newborn baby gorilla, a cultural moment that reflects the country’s conservation achievements.
The encounter that will stay with me the longest was spending a day with Rambo’s gorilla family, just a meter and a half from a silverback.
It was a calm, powerful reminder of our place in nature and our responsibility to protect it. 🦍
What moved me most was Rwanda’s spirit.
A nation that has faced immense hardship now stands as a testament to resilience and unity.
The warmth and openness of its people left me with a quiet but lasting sense of hope and a belief that renewal is not only possible, but already happening.
I want to thank the President of Rwanda, @Arsenal Football Club and Oorwanda for making this journey possible, and above all, the people of Rwanda who made me feel at home.
Rwanda will forever hold a place in my heart.
❤️ 🤍
I am deeply honoured and humbled to express my heartfelt gratitude to your Excellency @PaulKagame for renewing my term as a Senator. I pledge to work tirelessly, with integrity and dedication, to fulfil my responsibilities.
A businessman recently joked that in Rwanda today, it’s easier to borrow a smile than a bank loan because the moment you sign the papers, you start counting losses instead of profits. His story captures a harsh reality. Imagine a trader who borrows Frw 25 million to expand his business. By the time he finishes paying the loan in four years, he ends up returning nearly Frw 49 million almost double what he borrowed. With such heavy interest, it’s no surprise that many entrepreneurs feel like they are working for the banks, not for themselves.
According to the @CentralBankRw , as of June 2025, the country’s 11 major banks held total assets of Frw 9.6 trillion, a 22.5% increase from the previous year. These institutions control roughly two-thirds of Rwanda’s financial system, proving their immense strength and influence. Yet, while banks continue to grow richer, many small and medium enterprises especially in trade, manufacturing, and hospitality are struggling under the weight of expensive loans.
This imbalance poses a real threat to the government’s ambition of creating 250,000 jobs per year for the next four years. Sustainable growth requires more than profitable banks; it demands financial systems that allow businesses to breathe, grow, and employ.

Le Rwanda vient de faire briller l’Afrique durant une semaine.
● Pour la première fois depuis 103 ans d'histoire du cyclisme mondial, un championnat UCI s'est déroulé sur le continent Africain, à Kigali.
● 108 nations inscrites, faisant de l'UCI #Kigali la deuxième plus forte participation de l'histoire des championnats, juste derrière l'édition 2023 de Glasgow (110 nations).
● 330 millions de téléspectateurs dans le monde ont suivi ces championnats à Kigali, depuis 124 pays qui ont diffusé en direct ses championnats...
● Une première et une innovation rwandaise dans l'histoire des championnats du Monde Route UCI: Chaque coureur était équipé d'un système de suivi GPS sous la selle pour surveiller position et vitesse. Ce qui a renforcé la sécurité de tous les 779 coureurs distincts.
● Un événement majeur historique à l'issue duquel le Président Rwandais @PaulKagame a reçu une distinction honorifique de l'UCI, habituellement réservée aux vainqueurs.
Le Président de l'Union du Cyclisme International David Lappartient a estimé que sans l'implication du Président #Kagame, ces championnats n'auraient pas connu un tel succès.
Bravo #Rwanda
Bravo @PaulKagame
