      So proud to be Rwandese and African. Look at our government achievements within the last two decades. This is due to our President’s goal to develop our small beautiful East African Country and generate partnerships with Nations and institutions for mutual benefit for our Countries, unlike Zambia and few other Countries in the Continent letting China come take all natural resources, bring millions of it un wanted Citizens and take government own assets. Addis Ababa Ethiopia. Abate
