Kagame is a true globetrotter, jetting off on about 40 trips annually to showcase Rwanda as an economic powerhouse. Rwanda Revenue Authority sharply contradicts the Ironman’s narrative. Only 373 businesses with a miserable RWF1B or $738,767 turnover are categorized as “large.”
General Kagame has a new presidential limousine. Such vehicles are armoured against gunfire, explosives, puncture-proof tyres with own air supply. The cost of presidential limo is in the range $1.5 million depending of the thickness of armour. Stay tuned.
Dear Anne, as someone once said, you are “not gone, just gone ahead." you have not abandoned the battle for justice. You will continue to lead from the front.
British PM Boris Johnson helped the world understand Rwandan dictator General Paul Kagame. According to Johnson, no asylum seeker will dare flee to UK because evil awaits. They will be dumped to Rwanda, the most vicious totalitarian state of 21st country. Scary thought indeed.
Reality has finally caught up with the Rwandan strongman, General Paul Kagame. He is unquestionably an outcast in the international community. Global leaders are no longer swayed by Kagame’s public relations campaign that cleans up his image in the West.
KAGAME HAS INVENTED BRAND NEW EXPLANATIONS FOR WAR ESCALATION IN DRC
1) DRC is preparing to invade and install a new regime in
@Rwanda
;
2) The US is distorting DRC realities by blaming Rwanda;
3) South Africa’s intervention in DRC is fueling the war.
General Paul Kagame, the de facto ruler of Rwanda since 1994 says he will consider running for another 20 years. His 2015 constitution allows him to rule until 2034. He swept the 2017 presidential election with a 99% win, 1% short of North Korean Kim Jong-un who wins by 100%.
Kagame has an egg on his face after his UK High Commissioner Busingye was caught in a flawless operation. In a faked business meeting, Busigye acknowledged Rwanda’s human rights atrocities including the killing of refugees for protesting against hunger.
Look at General Kagame’s Rent-a-Crowd. A rent-a-crowd is a mass of people brought into a public event to make it appear popular and well-attended. For Kagame’s rally of June 25, 2022, his rent-a-crowd included children - meaning they were forced to miss school. Sad.
Dear Kizito Mihigo, you were taken from us on this day - February 17, 2020. People often say that time heals all wounds. Absolutely not - I disagree. Mihigo, your untimely departure remains is as painful as ever. You are gone but will never be forgotten.
Nigerian leaders went to Rwanda to lean how to govern and create wealth. Nigeria is a democracy with a $477B economy. Lagos is Africa’s Silicon Valley. Rwanda is a dictatorship in a $13B economy. This was a case of a mosquito teaching an elephant to run.
Kagame’s soldiers surrounded him at
@Rwanda
Day even during his speech. Remember Churchill’s words?“You see these dictators surrounded by their soldiers. Yet in their hearts, there is unspoken fear. A little mouse appears in the room and even the mightiest are thrown into panic.
General Kagame is sinking Rwanda deeper into debt. Rwanda’s debt climbed to US$8.1 billion or 81.1% of Gross National Income (GNI). Rwanda is the most indebted country in East Africa. For example, Uganda debt is 46.5% of GNI; Tanzania 41.3%; Kenya 38.5%.
KAGAME, DEATH ANXIETY, RWANDA
The
@AU
is Africa’s most heavily guarded venue. Yet,
@Kagame
needed a protective wall of his guards in presidential meetings. He is ravaged by death anxiety. This is disastrous for the people of
@Rwanda
. Their iron-fisted ruler is mentally unfit.

@Kagame
has never confronted a complex challenge like this before, which encompasses escalating food insecurity, reduced foreign aid, declining donor soft loans & political isolation. See reports from IMF, World Bank, US government and
@Rwanda
data.
What becomes of Boris Johnson’s scheme to pay the government of the Rwandan dictator General Paul Kagame £120 million to hold deported asylum seekers from the UK? We may witness a double collapse - not only the Johnson government but also his human trafficking scheme. Stay tuned.
Kagame’s friend Macky Sall tried but failed to become a dictator. Sall suspended the presidential elections that would end his final term. The people of Senegal said NO. Senegal’s Constitutional Council said NO, overturning Sall’s suspension. Hallelujah.
KAGAME’S SPY CAUGHT IN CANADA
One Eli Ndatuji, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer was charged with breaching national security by spying for a foreign government. Guess which foreign country - Kagame’s Republic of Rwanda. Eli faces two years in jail.
The sinking foreign aid and currency depreciation are hitting Kagame’s Singapore of Africa mightily. Between 2019 and 2023, US aid to Rwanda shrunk by nearly 50%. This has dire consequences for Rwanda’s basic health &HIV/AIDS whose US support fell by 50%.
I am reading Rwanda’s Establishment Census 2020. According to this census, only 539,243 Rwandans have jobs, of whom 264,845 are in urban areas and 274,398 in rural
areas. This, in a country of 12 million. Scary.
Kagame's wars wiped out millions of people, and now he faces the consequences. His life is significantly impacted by his intense fear of dying. In order to take part in presidential discussions at the AU, he surrounded himself with his military guards. As you give you receive.
Kagame routinely dispatches his generals abroad as ambassadors. Why? Fear. As dictators accumulate power, they become increasingly anxious about their own mortality. Kagame sees his generals as a threat to him, which is why he is often described as "a general without generals."
Kagame completed his master plan for making the African Union a dynamic agency to improve African lives. The 2024 AU Summit was to be his moment of glory, submitting his blueprint. Instead, the summit avoided him like a plague. Why? His perpetual warmongering caught up with him.
Boris Johnson lied that Rwanda is “one of the safest countries in the world.” Yet his govt in 2021 highlighted Rwanda’s extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances and torture. That Boris Johnson is a serial liar is widely known - but his Rwanda lie was the most spectacular.
General Paul Kagame has a large scar on his skull. There has been no mention of it in his office or in the Rwandan media. Normally, a head of state's health is a vital national interest that draws discussion. This is Rwanda where something observable is still a state secret.
Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame is in poor health. My writings about him end with this statement. As my mother taught me, even the cruelest must be forgiven when in distress. I pray for Rwanda.
Dear Kizito Mihigo, not much has changed since you went to heaven. The rulers of your beloved Rwanda terrorize, imprison and kill. But as Shakespeare used to say, a coward dies a thousand times before his death. Our rulers live under their beds terrified of their pending deaths.
Kagame installed a proxy regime in Kinshasa declaring the mission accomplished in 1997. After 28 years of bloodshed and plunder, he faces SADC troops with an offensive mandate to dislodge his armies and proxies. The US is supporting this task. Kagame finally meets his Waterloo.
General Paul Kagame’s Singapore of Africa is officially a banana republic. According to the latest World Bank data, 74.2 percent of Rwanda’s central government expense is funded by foreign aid.
US Senate Foreign Relations Committee led by chairman
@SenatorMenendez
has put a hold on all security assistance to
#Rwanda
citing violent repression against
#Rwandans
and support for rebel groups in DRC.
Kagame calls his government and the people of Rwanda spineless & that he is saddened by being one of them. He says Rwandans are too cowardly to reject the wrong. Did he forget that it is his tyrannical state and thousands of informants silencing Rwandans?
Kagame Has Acquired a New US$319 Million IMF Loan. The new US$319 million loan adds to the existing Rwandan indebtedness in the amount of US$7.4 billion or 73.3 percent of GDP.
Kagame’s Once-Mighty Bromance with the US Is Dead. In 2023, US slashed Rwanda aid by nearly 50%; US-funded World Bank cut aid by 33%. Biden’s agenda to defend democracy turned Kagame into persona non grata. With Clinton cut to size, Kagame has no defender.
KAGAME’S FORGOTTEN PRISONER DEO MUSHAYIDI
Deo, a survivor of the genocide against Tutsi & former RPF staff, fled Rwanda & became a vocal critic of the regime. He was declared an enemy of the state, sentenced to life imprisonment, & has since served 5,153 days behind bars. Pray🛐
KAGAME, YOU VEHEMENTLY REJECTED THE UN INTERVENTION FORCE DURING THE GENOCIDE.
You were not concerned about the welfare of the people of Rwanda. Your interest was always power and money, not saving lives. These are your own appalling utterances in 1994.
I received a wonderful gift from Rwanda. I got a cartoon of myself blogging on the

@Kagame
. The artist captured my passion for speaking out against injustice. The visual representation of myself was breathtaking. I'm so thrilled to have this unique piece of art!💙
KAGAME IS THE ONLY “UGANDAN” LEFT IN THE MILITARY LEADERSHIP, with Nyamvumba exiled as ambassador. The key players of the Ugandan-born
@Rwanda
Patriot army who were instrumental in Kagame’s ascent to power, have been eliminated. Kagame has successfully accomplished his mission.
The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) June 2022 assessment of Rwanda reveals that 35 percent of the Rwandan population is under-nourished compared to the sub-Saharan average of 20 percent. The Singapore of Africa is performing very poorly. Sad.
KAGAME REGIME’S
KILLINGS OF RWANDANS IN MOZAMBIQUE IS NO SECRET
Mozambican Justice Minister H. Kida, made a historic admission. For the first time, Mozambique publicly acknowledged the execution of Rwandans on its territory. This is a significant step. …
Kagame received notification from the US demanding immediate withdrawal from DR Congo the
@Rwanda
soldiers and surface-to-air missile systems which terrorize civilians, peacekeepers, humanitarian actors and commercial flights. Over to the Rwandan Ironman.
KAGAME ENJOYED AN ARSENAL FOOTBALL GAME IN LONDON ON 9/3/2024
As Rwandans commemorate their tragic loss 30yrs ago, they look to leaders’ empathy & solidarity. Not Kagame. The Rwandan Ironman has another priority - the Arsenal game in UK. What a disgrace!
Kagame & Madam Kagame are not only husband and wife but Rwanda’s co-rulers. Jetting on their two $67 million Gulfstreams a piece, Kagame landed in Qatar to look for cash. Madam Kagame jetted to Namibia and joined regional leaders in Windhoek marking Namibia's president's death.
“Formal employment in Rwanda is less than 10%. By level of education, 49.7% of the workforce has not finished primary school, 29.6% has finished primary school, 8% has finished low secondary education, 8% has finished secondary education and 4% has finished university studies.”
Kagame’s Dynastic Grandiose Smells of Kim Jong Un’s North Korea. The two autocrats are joined at the hip with daughters seemingly next in power line. Pasting 75yr Kim dynasty in Rwanda?
@Rwanda
Ironman
@Kagame
needs help to contain delusion of grandeur.
Kagame lives in the world of Gulfstream jets, Range Rovers & lakeside farms. He doesn't care about 12.9M Rwandans. His regime charges $50 for Covid testing. At the poverty headcount ratio of US$5.50 a day, 92% of Rwandans are poor.
Rwanda’s strongman Kagame used to ridicule African heads of state who rush to France to seek solutions to African problems. Here he is now doing precisely that - a picture is worth a thousand words.
Kagame took South Africa for a fool and received a shock – the Rwandan strongman tried to make a deal with South Africa to fight in Mozambique but instead got a lecture on territorial integrity and national sovereignty.
Kagame did NOT deliver the keynote address at the 2024 US Prayer Breakfast. He made a speech at a smaller sideshow. Instead of self-flattery, Kagame should learn from the US Prayer Breakfast. Its goal is to put politics aside and pray for the unity of the country and its leaders.
#Kagame
mocked world leaders for being all talk and no action on peace. The US revealed it would begin to monitor
#Rwanda
DRC border. The US had a month earlier declared Kagame’s military to be the invaders/occupiers of
#DRC
territory in support of
#M23
.
Kagame says Rwanda is not Africa that is savaged by poverty, corruption, tribalism and nepotism. The joke is on him. Rwanda is one of the world’s 25 poorest and most vulnerable countries alongside Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, Haiti and Yemen.
KAGAME’S BARELY STAYS IN RWANDA. WHY?
In 30 days from 12, Jan to Feb 12 Feb 2024, Kagame travelled to 5 nations on 4 continents. Its about mental disorders. His 34-year terror made him a paranoid wreck who only feels safe in
@Rwanda
hideouts or highly secured overseas hotels.
Kagame is unwell. The large scar on his skull remains a mystery. Sophocles warned in 441 ВС that “A State for one man is no State at all.” This raises a profound question. What happens to Kagame’s one-man state if he is physically or mentally disabled? Watch his RwandaDay speech.
US Senate Foreign Relations Committee has called on Rwanda to halt its support to M23. Meanwhile, DR Congo has expelled the Rwandan ambassador in retaliation for Rwanda’s support to M23 militia.
Kagame has 2 new names. He earned the title of “Africa’s Putin” in UK and “Hitler” in DRC. Opponents of deporting asylum seekers to
@Rwanda
cite
@Kagame
/Putin transnational terror. Kagame‘s relentless warmongering in DRC is what earns him the name Hitler.
Kagame the tourist landed in Congo-Brazzaville on April 11, 2022. Before that he was in Kenya, Germany, Egypt, Jordan, Mauritania, Senegal, Germany (again), France and Belgium. Where to next? Stay tuned.
Is tourism booming in Rwanda? Compare tourism receipts in East African Community countries: (1) Tanzania $2.6 million; (2) Kenya $1,7 million; (3) Uganda $518,000; (4) Rwanda $212,000; (5) DR Congo $60,500; (6) South Sudan $12,000; (7) Burundi $3,700.
“Secrecy, Lies and Refugees: What the Hell is Going in Rwanda? When governments close the door to the press and the public, it’s always a pretty clear sign that something rather unpleasant is going on, hidden from sight.”
Kagame was NOT invited to the US National Prayer Breastfast addressed by President Joe Biden. Kagame spoke at a side event organized by his friend Senator Bill Nelson. The highest-ranking official attending Kagame's speech was Virginia Governor Youngkin.
US President Biden to host African leaders in Dec 22. When Obama hosted them in 2014 I wrote: “Obama speaks eloquently for human rights. Now is the time for him to tell General Kagame: You can’t be a despot at home and an honored guest at the White House.”
Rwanda Auditor General has more bad news. Rwanda Social Security Board (RSSB) invested RWF115.9 trillion or US$111 million in 12 Rwandan companies. Incredibly, none has generated any returns or dividends to RSSB. Some of the companies went bankrupt. Sad.
Kagame’s Singapore of Africa in bad shape – says World Bank Update, due to among other factors, poor business environment, low human capital, lack of foreign & domestic investment in tradable sector, and ineffective judiciary that can’t enforce rights.
Dear Kizito Mihigo, your courage to speak to the wicked power in Rwanda knew no bounds. I celebrate your audacity everyday. You give me reason to live and hope.
Priti Patel is among British cabinet ministers jumping off PM Boris Johnson’s sinking ship. Where does that leave their shameful scheme of deporting asylum seekers to Rwanda? Stay tuned.
KAGAME, THE CONTINOUS DEATH OF GENOCIDE SURVIVORS IS AN ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY
Most devastating is the youth. Our musical icon Kizito Mihigo, who perished in 2020 left a void that can never be filled.
Innocent Bahati, a gifted poet who disappeared in 2021, brings tears to my eyes.
KAGAME SAYS RWANDA ACHIEVEMENTS AT 30 IMPRESSIVE
ALL HIS DONORS SAY NAY👇🏾👇🏾
1️⃣ US: "Rwanda is one of the world's poorest countries."
2️⃣ UK: "Rwanda remains a very poor country."
3️⃣ IMF: “Rwanda is poor & vulnerable.”
4️⃣ WORLD BANK: poverty reduction "almost stagnated.”
The host of the forthcoming Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting CHOGM, General Paul Kagame, is a confessed kidnapper who publicly stated that he lured Paul Rusesabagina to Rwanda in a “flawless” operation.
Surprise surprise! Priti Patel has resigned as UK Home Secretary on the first day of the High Court hearing in the legal challenge to her policy of deporting asylum seekers to Rwanda which is ruled by a chronic human rights abuser, General Paul Kagame.
The Kagames travel to the same destinations on separate jets. True? This question is from Rwanda. For instance, in the visit to Benin in April 2023, Kagame landed on 15th, while Mrs arrived 14th. This could be due to death anxiety: it is risky to put all your eggs in one basket.
RDB says Rwanda registered US$1.3 billion of investments in 2020 of which 51% or US$500+ million was foreign investment. This is a big lie. The World Bank data indicates that Rwanda received a pathetic US$99 million in foreign investment in 2020.
General Paul Kagame dropped 12 generals & 80 senior officers. But with the coup d’état back in fashion, the generals will not escape Kagame’s watchful eyes. As Churchill said, “dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount. And the tigers are getting hungry.”
Kagame is at the most pivotal moment of his 28-year warring in DRC. The global community is condemning him. It looks as if he will be held accountable in 2024. Keep your eyes on the countdown clock and witness the climax of this high-stakes tragic drama.
Kagame’s asylum seeker project is in the news. It turns out that as the UK was declaring
#Rwanda
safe, the very government was settling Rwandan refugees in Britain. The UK government determined that the Rwandans’ fear of persecution in Rwanda was real. …
KAGAME TOOK OVER THE STREETS IN THE 7 AM-10 AM EVENT KNOWN AS “CAR FREE DAY.” The usual enthusiastic crowds were nowhere to be seen. Kagame was encircled by military guards in what looked like a funeral ceremony to sanctify the dead. Au Revoir Strongman; Bienvenu Fearful Man.
Kagame’s Empty Bargain – As an American Permanent Resident, Rusesabagina In Entitled to Relaunching His Activism Against the Rwandan Totalitarian State.
Rwanda-based readers objected to my view of IMF’s Rwanda review. They said contrary to my gloom and doom, IMF found Rwanda’s economy robust. Here is my response with evidence to show why the IMF found Rwanda floundering and in need of emergency bailout.
KAGAME BOASTED: “WE ARE AS HARD AS ROCK”
He now has top-of-the-line anti-drone and surface-to-air missiles.
@Rwanda
is a rock, he says. Really?
@Kagame
ought to take heed of Hegel's timeless wisdom: history has shown us time and time again that we often fail to learn from it.
General Kagame in 2022: “There isn’t anybody going to come from anywhere to bully us into something to do with our lives and we accept it.” Kagame in 2023: “There is work going on to resolve the issue with Rusesabagina.“
Kagame’s human traffic project failed to sail through the UK House of Lords. Some 214 Lords voted to delay the
@Rwanda
scheme against 171 who supported it. The Telegraph called the vote “unprecedented.”
Kagame bragged that Rusesabagina was lured to Rwanda in a “flawless operation.” The boast may come back to haunt the Rwandan strongman. Global Magnitsky sanctions against Rwandan officials for extraordinary rendition of Rusesabagina are in the works.
