I am personally upset and I think I am not the only one, to see the president of our country thrown in this state of mind. There were cases of detention and even murder of foreign nationals in Rwanda. But they did not trigger a barrage of angry statements from heads of state/government of their countries. I believe our head of state would be wise to stay away from judicial disputes. And so many Rwandans would certainly welcome a move, by the president, to remove the root cause of the flight of his associates and members of the general population. It is within reach. He has the necessary powers to do it. It would probably require just a paragraph long statement! There is no need to have Rwanda taking on these world powers, Mr. President!
As for our dignity as Rwandans, we cannot defend it merely by talking back and refusing to listen. The best defense would be to have genuine national inter ethnic and intra ethnic  reconciliation, and go to work together, to build our country. Dignity is to be adequately fed, clothed, educated and free. Many of would be leaders are known to have succumbed to incentives of those things not available in the prevailing governance, and sold their dignity to get them! What is the dignity of a parliament, which has not one dissenting voice, or MPs with different views? Just clapping at every witty sentence of the President's speech?

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.

Le Troisième Mandat de Louise Mushikiwabo à l'OIF : Entre Précédent et Principe Démocratique. L'Alternance à l'OIF : Pourquoi un Troisième Mandat Fragilise la Crédibilité de la Francophonie. Introduction Louise Mushikiwabo veut un troisième mandat à la tête de l'Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. Son annonce, faite bien avant l'émergence d'autres candidats, rappelle une tactique familière en Afrique : affirmer qu'on a le soutien populaire sans jamais le prouver publiquement. La méthode est rodée. Des dirigeants africains l'utilisent depuis des décennies pour prolonger leur règne. Ils clament que "le peuple le demande" ou que "les partenaires soutiennent" cette reconduction. Aucune preuve formelle n'est nécessaire. L'affirmation devient réalité politique. Mais voilà le problème : la Francophonie prêche la démocratie, l'État de droit et l'alternance au pouvoir. Peut-elle tolérer en son sein ce qu...
