Today Rwanda is governed by Paul Kagama, who is credited with much of the country’s present-day development and stability, and he has cemented control of the political system, winning the three elections he has entered with most of the votes.
One of the indications of his willingness to govern fairly is his call to his new appointed leaders to serve with diligence and responsibility, reminding them that their role requires careful execution to assure the well-being of the citizens.
The call was made during a swearing -in ceremony for the new minister and officials, held on Saturday 18th at Urugwiro Village.
The most important thing the current government of Kagame is doing is to devote the principles of reconciliation and the spirit of teamwork to build a strong economic and developmental country, and to try to re-educate members of society on the values of tolerance, unity and positive participation.
This is plus achieving justice and punishing perpetrators as a basis for healing the wounds of the past and envisioning a better future for current and future generations.
The director of the Museum of the Genocide said to the media, Serg Rwigamba “The Kigali Museum received more than 144,000 visitors during the 10 months of the current year, 64% of whom were from outside Rwanda”.
The director of the museum explained how his country is making its best efforts to get over the worst civil war in the world. He highlighted that the purpose of the institution he lead is “to learn closely about the scale of the tragedy left by the genocide in the country and the events that led to this genocide and to learn lessons from it in the hope of not repeating it in the future”.
