UTANYISE INKOTANYI TWABIPFA🇷❤
A powerful and emotional moment from Rwanda Day London 2013 on May 18, 2013, when Yunusu wa Maridadi, a Rwandan of Indian origin whose family has lived in Rwanda for generations publicly thanked H.E. President Paul Kagame for the incredible transformation of Rwanda. 🇷🇼❤️ The elderly man explained that when he recently returned to Rwanda after many years away, he was completely overwhelmed. He said the last Rwanda he remembered had been left in ruins after the Genocide against the Tutsi, and for a moment he even felt lost because the country had changed beyond recognition. What he found was not the Rwanda of destruction he once knew, but a nation rebuilt with dignity, security, cleanliness, hope, and unity. He described Rwanda’s recovery and development as a miracle that only someone who knew the country’s painful history could truly understand. His testimony touched many hearts because it came from someone who witnessed Rwanda across generations and saw with his own eyes how far the country had risen. Listen to this emotional testimony and share your feelings in the comments ❤️🇷🇼 #ThankYouYourExcellencePaulKagame #RwandaDay #Rwanda #GenocideAgainstTheTutsi #Kwibuka #RwandaRis

Under President Kagame, Rwanda has built a case for global influence through practical contributions to security and humanitarian protection. Its peacekeeping deployments, bilateral security partnerships and reception of displaced people demonstrate a willingness to share responsibility for challenges that extend far beyond its borders. Rwanda’s peacekeeping philosophy places the protection of civilians at the center of the mission, drawing on the lessons of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. That commitment connects Rwanda’s own history to its responsibility to protect vulnerable people elsewhere. In Mozambique, Rwanda deployed security forces in July 2021 at the government’s request to help confront the insurgency in Cabo Delgado. Joint operations have helped recover key towns, restore civil authority and enable displaced communities to return home. These gains show the human value of security cooperation. In the Central African Republic, Rwanda combines participation in the UN mission with a separate bilateral defence deployment. Its support has included force protection and assistance in securing the electoral process. In South Sudan, Rwandan peacekeepers serve through UNMISS, protecting civilians, including displaced women and girls. Rwanda has also supported training for South Sudanese officers and implementation of the peace agreement. Rwanda’s response to displacement extends that commitment beyond military operations. Following President Kagame’s 2017 offer to receive vulnerable people stranded in Libya, Rwanda partnered with the African Union and UNHCR to establish the Emergency Transit Mechanism. At Gashora, evacuees, including Eritreans and people from other African countries, receive shelter, medical care, psychosocial support and assistance toward durable solutions. Together, these actions show how Rwanda is a reliable and constructive international partner. Under President Kagame’s leadership, Rwanda has shown that a country’s influence can grow through the responsibilities it accepts, the partnerships it sustains and the people it helps protect.

Drawings from Charles Petrie’s book The Triumph of Evil: Florence Ngirumpatse, a UN personnel officer, was slaughtered in her home along with 10 others during the Genocide against the Tutsi by killers under the command of Callixte Mbarushimana, who was also a UN staff member. Mbarushimana later became a leader of the FDLR and died yesterday without facing justice for his alleged role in the crimes committed during the Genocide against the Tutsi. It would be better to share photos of Mbarushimana’s victims to honour their memory rather than a photo of Mbarushimana himself.

Le Rassemblement rwandais pour la démocratie (RNC), officiellement considéré comme une organisation terroriste et criminelle par Kigali, réclame désormais « une enquête sur la disparition de l’artiste Ben Rutabana », sept ans après les faits. Toutefois, cette prise de position suscite des critiques, certains lui reprochant de chercher à se dédouaner dans une affaire dans laquelle il serait largement impliqué.

Yesterday, RDB Deputy CEO @JulianaMuganza joined the official launch of Teleperformance Rwanda in Kigali, marking the global business services company’s expansion into Rwanda and its growing Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) sector. With operations across nearly 100 countries, @wearetpgroup's Rwanda operation will serve international clients while creating opportunities for Rwandan professionals to build skills and careers in the global digital business services industry. “Today is more than opening an office. It is about opening opportunities for young Rwandans to gain international experience, develop new skills and build careers in a global company while serving clients around the world from right here at home in Rwanda. Rwanda has made a deliberate choice to position itself as a place where global companies can build, operate and grow.” — RDB Deputy CEO @JulianaMuganza.

Rwanda is strengthening its place among mineral economies and its export earnings show the scale of that opportunity. With annual mineral export revenues targeted at US$2.17 billion by 2029, Rwanda is positioning its mineral resources as a foundation for lasting national growth.

Courage has a name: Dafroza Gauthier.💔 For decades, she has carried the painful weight of memory while standing firm for truth and justice. In the face of unimaginable loss, she refused silence. She dedicated herself to ensuring that perpetrators of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi are pursued and held accountable for their heinous crimes. Her story is heartbreaking, but her courage is extraordinary. 💔 Rwanda has recognized her unwavering commitment. President @PaulKagame conferred on Dafroza Gauthier the “Igihango National Order of Outstanding Friendship.” Honouring her remarkable contribution to justice, memory, and the fight against impunity. Her struggle reminds us that wounds may remain, but truth must endure and justice must never be abandoned. #Kwibuka #NeverAgain #Justice #GenocideAgainstTheTutsi #Rwanda #Accountability #FightAgainstImpunity
