This was announced through a Tweet on the RIB Twitter account where they unveiled that the suspect is being held at Ruhango RIB station as further investigatios get underway, thanking the public for sharing of information that leads to arrest of suspects.
The Twit further says; “We are warning those that are impersonating government agents lying to citizens, this will not be tolerated.”
The campaign is taking place at different universities, through Non-Governmental Organizations, religious leaders, and local leaders encouraging them to join initiatives aimed at promoting a peaceful world.
Founded by Man Hee Lee from South Korea, HWPL seeks to promote peace and stop war across the world.
In 2015, HWPL launched first campaigns advocating for the establishment of international law for peace and to raise the awareness of the importance of peace culture.
In 2018, this organization was recognized by the UN and carried on mobilizations for the establishment of international law for peace to be implemented by the UN.
Jean Bosco Nshimiyimana, member of the International Peace Youth Group (IPYG) in Rwanda; affiliated to the HWPL, said that for peace to be achieved all the world citizens will have to pitch in.
“There is a proverb that goes ‘If you want peace, prepare for war’. The anticipated solution is against this saying. If we join the strength as the youth, parents, religious leaders, and local leaders with the same purpose, peace will undoubtedly be achievable,” he said
IPYG has been working for the support for the legally binding international norm for a sustainable peace based on the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW).
Sheikh Ismail Maniriho, the head of Islamic predication at Rwanda Muslims Community (RMC) said that peace should start from religious places, and religious people should be first to bear fruits of peace.
“As religious people, we should fight against racism, sexual abuse, and discrimination. That is why our deeds must be characterized by love and unity,” he said
In October 2016, President Paul Kagame pressed the takeoff button to launch the country’s first drone into the skies – marking the country’s new means of transportation and delivery of emergency medical supplies to remote parts of the country.
The project was a joint venture between the Ministry of Health and Zipline – a Silicon Valley robotics company to establish a drone port in Shyogwe sector in Muhanga district, Southern Rwanda.
From Muhanga-based main drone port, the country has established other sites, the latest launched in January this year in Kayonza district, Eastern Rwanda.
The country has also come up with an idea to use drones in other areas such as Agriculture.
The initiative to use the latest technology in saving lives has earned Rwanda a slot to host the global flying competition – through a partnership with the World Bank and World Economic Forum (WEF).
The event will include a regulatory summit that brings together leading figures in drone technology from the private sector and airspace regulators to highlight and discuss what is possible for the future of drones in Africa.
“The flying competitions will promote new industries and services, harness data for delivery and resilience, create activity hubs and opportunities to leapfrog technologies, and develop skill sets for 21st-century jobs in the region and beyond,” said Puliti.
Puliti added that the event will promote the skies above Africa as a valuable resource and technologies to help build sustainable infrastructure.
According to WEF, Rwanda was selected as the host for the event because it is currently one of the only countries that have policies in place that allow for the types of applications being demonstrated in the competition.
Paula Ingabire, Rwanda Minister of Information and Communication Technology said that “the country is excited to host the Africa Drone Forum. It is a platform that will bring together policymakers, drones enthusiasts, experts, and industry leaders to explore potential use case applications for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology in Africa.”
“It’s an opportunity for Rwanda to share our experience in pioneering the use of Beyond Visual Line Of Sight (BVLOS) UAV operations, and our development of drone regulations,” added Minister Ingabire.
The flying competition will see global experts invite companies that are leading the way in drone technology to compete.
As he spoke to local leaders in Kayonza, Ngoma and Kirehe districts on Monday during a performance evaluation meeting, he urged participants to deliver to the best of their abilities.
At the beginning of 2019, Eastern Province recorded 15,519 students that had dropped out of school.
Local leaders’ campaign conducted later led to returning of 13,196 students back to school but whereabouts of the remaining 2,323 were not traced.
Governor Mufulukye reminded leaders that there should be no excuses regarding children dropping out of school.
“We are told that some students went to study elsewhere, some are undertaking professional training while some have no reasons to give. We have a week to investigate the reasons behind visiting and interrogating their parents. If it is a matter of parents stopping children from attending school, punishments await them. We want all children back to school,” he said.
Mufulukye urged local leaders to work together to make the target successful.
The Director of Education in Ngoma district, Judith Murekatete said that some children who dropped out of school are working as domestic workers while others are employed in rice gardens.

Joachim Mugengakamere, a member of Symphony Band, told IGIHE that they entered the competition with a goal of winning the grand prize.
“When we stir our audience, it echoes back into boosting our next performance. We want to start working on our own compositions this year,” he said.
Wenceslas Iyakare [Rickson], the head of His Voice Band said that they are going to assess themselves to hone their competences.
“We want to see areas of improvements to lift our standard to the international market,” he said
Revelers also enjoyed the pomp and spectacle that came with the competition.
Michaella, from Germany, has told IGIHE that she was greatly excited by the show, the first one she attended in Rwanda.
“They both did great. One is playing a lot of international songs. It was easier for me to understand. I also loved the traditional music. I am here for the first time in Rwanda and both bands have made my night. It was great,’’ she enthused.
The winner of the competition will get a one year paid contract with Marriott Hotel, to be its resident band and to open the performance of the New Year’s Eve celebrations.
