Kagame umaze kwirukana  ba officers mu nagabo z'u Rwanda ngo kubera ruswa abahora, kuki ataratubwira aho abana be bakuye akayabo bafite bakaba bafite amazu muri Amerika. Kuki Kagame we atatubwira aho yakuye akayabo k'amafranga afite. Gufata indege buri kwezi akajya kwituma no gufata douche i Burayi, Amerika no mu  bihugu by'Abarabu nabyo ni ruswa nk'izindi.

Ruswa ni nyinshi mu Rwanda kuva FPR yafata ubutegetsi ikigarurira imitungo y'abahutu, isigaye ikayisenya indi ikajyana i Bugande.  Kagame yarangiza iti aho twakuye u Rwanda ! Ati u Rwanda rwari rwasenyutse nyamara ariwe warusenye.  Ati u Rwanda rwatangiranye nanjye.

Senators ask NBA about Rwanda relationship

How the NBA got into business with an African dictator (1:21)
How the NBA got into business with an African dictator (1:21)
  • Mark Fainaru-Wada, ESPN Staff WriterAug 27, 2024, 12:03 PM ET

Two U.S. senators sent a letter Tuesday to NBA commissioner Adam Silver accusing the league of "putting profit over principle," in response to an ESPN story that detailed the NBA's extensive relationship with Rwandan dictator Paul Kagame.

The bipartisan letter, signed by Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.), says the NBA "has long positioned itself as a beacon of social justice" but instead has continued "developing relationships with dictators and despots" such as Kagame.

The senators cited an ESPN article published last month that described how the NBA built a relationship with Kagame that, on the one hand, was central to launching its first league outside of North America, the Basketball Africa League, but, on the other, forced the NBA to look past persistent human rights abuses far worse than those it opposes at home.

In the letter, the senators wrote that, "Anyone who dares to question Kagame's rule -- whether it be opposition candidates or the free press -- is jailed, disappeared or brutally murdered." In addition, the senators questioned the NBA's business in China, which ESPN previously investigated.

The senators asked Silver to respond within one week to a series of questions. They want Silver to "outline the scope of the NBA's relationship with the Rwandan government" and to describe the steps the league is taking to improve the lives of Rwandan people, "including those subject to human rights abuses" by Kagame's regime.

Kagame has been Rwanda's president since 2000; last month, he was reelected with 99% of the vote.

NBA deputy commissioner Mark Tatum previously told ESPN: "The conversations that we've had with Paul Kagame have all been about improving the lives of Rwandan people. How can we create, how can we inspire and connect people through the game of basketball to make Rwandan peoples' lives better."

The senators concluded their letter to Silver by saying, "Playing ball with dictators and brutal regimes should not be the NBA's business model. Instead, the league should use its influence to advocate for governance reforms, including respect for the rule of law."

Objet : Menaces du dictateur Kagame envers la famille de Victoire Ingabire mises en exécution?

Triples i,
Sablez le Champagne mais avec modération !

Fire at the Home of Rwandan Opposition Leader's Mother in the Netherlands

Un drame pénible mais prévisible car on doit le lier à la situation de Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza actuellement retenue au Rwanda où elle ne peut pas sortir pour revoir sa famille qu'elle a quitté il y ans 14 ans.

Mais surtout en tenant compte des menaces récentes et directes et publiques du Dictateur Paul Kagame envers sa personne et sa famille comme les médias le rapportent.

https://www.therwandan.com/fr/appel-a-la-communaute-internationale-pour-proteger-victoire-ingabire-umuhoza-une-opposition-menacee-au-rwanda/


https://www.therwandan.com/fr/les-avocats-de-victoire-ingabire-reagissent-aux-propos-du-president-rwandais/

Ce drame doit être aussi lié aux missions du nouvel Ambassadeur de Paul Kagame aux Pays Bas, un tueur notoire et de profession sur qui les connaisseurs avaient attiré l' attention de ce pays dès sa nomination. Tout pays de l'Union Européenne devrait refuser son accréditation. Mais dans certains de ces pays, c'est Paul Kagame qui dicte sa volonté. Et voilà les conséquences!

Kagame aratagaguza amafranga  hirya no hino aho gukemura ikibazo cya gari ya moshi yasezeranije abanyarwanda dore hashize imyaka 30.


Kagame aratagazuza amafranga  menshi muri za sports ariko izo sports ntacyo zigeza ku banyrwanda. Mu mikino ya Olempike i Paris, nta munyarwanda wabonye umudari. Yaba Football, yaba Basketball, n'indi mikino u Rwanda ruri inyuma ku rwego rwa Afrika. Ibibuga byinshi mu Rwanda no gukorera imikino mpuzamahanga mu Rwanda ntabwo bizakemura icyo kibazo.

 

Mu gihe ibihugu byo mu karere birimo gutaha imihanda ya gari ya moshi ndetse no kuyitangiza nko mu Bugande, Kagame we akomeje gutagaguza amafaranga y'igihugu mu ngendo mu mahanga, gukoresha iminsi mikuru n'amatora afifitse, gufasha ibigo by'abanyamahanga gukoresha inama zabo mu Rwanda,  gutagaguza mu makipe yo mu mahanga, ndetse ngo  yiteguye no gufasha Formula 1 ko yakorerwa mu Rwanda.  Ikindi kibazo kandi abantu bibaza ni uko kubera imisozi igihugu gifite, kubaka imihanda ya gari ya moshi mu Rwanda bihenze kurusha mu bihugu byo mu karere. Yagamba rero akayabo k'amafranga ngo gari ya moshi yubakwe mu Rwanda. 

Imyaka ibaye mirongo 30 Kagame atubwira ko gari ya moshi igiye kuza mu Rwanda. None amaso yaheze mu kirere. Kagame rero yarashobewe, nta gisubizo afite ku byerekeye gari ya moshi mu Rwanda.

Twiteze ikibuga cy'indege cy'i Kanombe u Rwanda rutazaba rufitemo ijambo kuko  mu ishoramari kuri  icyo kibuga Qatar irusha u Rwanda imigabane. Bityo u Rwanda rukaba rutazagira ijambo  ku musaruro w'icyo kibuga. Icyo kibuga  na Rwandair sibyo bizakura abanyarwanda mu bukene. Ethiopia ifite ibyo byose dore hashize imyaka myinshi ariko abaturage baho barakenye, bahora bafashwa kubera inzara zihoraho. Ethiopia ikaba izwi nka kimwe mu bihugu aho abaturage baba mu bukene. Ethiopian Airlines  nubwo ari iya mbere muri Afrika ntabwo yashoboye kurandura ubukene muri Ethiopia.

[Rwanda Forum] Top 10 African countries with the lowest freedom of expression in 2024

Top 10 African countries with the lowest freedom of expression in 2024

In many parts of the world, freedom of expression is seen as a fundamental human right. But the reality of how this right is upheld, or violated varies from country to country, especially in Africa.

Top 10 African countries with the lowest freedom of expression in 2024
  • Business Insider Africa presents top 10 African countries with the lowest freedom of expression in 2024.
  • The list is courtesy of the Global Expression Report.
  • In the last year, 451 million people across 10 countries experienced a deterioration of their freedom of expression.
ADVERTISEMENT

Globally, freedom of expression is enshrined in international agreements, like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which states that "everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression." Yet, in practice, the situation is more complex.

In some countries, citizens enjoy broad freedoms to express themselves openly and without fear. In others, this right is curtailed, often harshly.

ADVERTISEMENT

In the last year, 451 million people across 10 countries experienced a deterioration of their freedom of expression; only 335 million people across 5 countries saw improvement. The largest decline over the last year took place in Burkina Faso (-24 points), followed by Mongolia (-10 points) and Senegal (-9 points).

According to the Global Expression Report 2024, freedom of expression in Sub-Saharan Africa remains stagnant. Every other region has seen a significant drop in expression over the last 10 years, but there has been no substantial change in Sub-Saharan Africa.

In the last year, 216 million people across 4 countries experienced a deterioration of their freedom of expression; no countries saw improvement. The largest decline in the region took place in Burkina Faso (-24 points). This was also the largest decline globally.

In the last 5 years, 329 million people across 14 countries experienced a deterioration of their freedom of expression, while only 119 million people across 4 countries saw improvement.

Below are the top 10 African countries with the lowest freedom of expression in 2024:
