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. Kwiguzaho umutungo nabyo ni ruswa. 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.

How the NBA got into business with an African dictator (1:21)
How the NBA got into business with an African dictator (1:21)

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."

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.
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!
"Ce dont j’ai le plus peur, c’est des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre."
“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”
“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile."
