After guided and explained visual findings of 1994 Genocide at Kigali Genocide Memorial Site,the President of the Republic of Congo-Brazaville Denis Sassou Nguesso called upon African leaders to join efforts in saving their population from human atrocities.
“What I saw from the memorial leaves me almost speechless. I am emotionally disturbed by the horror that befell this country,” Sassou Nguesso said at the memorial Site.
“As an African political leader, it’s a pity that we face such problems; Africa lacks preventive measures, it is upon us to ensure that we protect out land from such tragedies,” he added.
Sassou Nguesso said that the kind of atrocity that befell Rwanda can take place in another country if not prevented therefore called for the never again doctrine.
“I visited the section of child-victims in the memorial, it’s unbelievable how ruthless people became and it also unbelievable how Rwanda has moved on tremendously.”
After visiting the Memorial Site, Sassou Nguesso also visited the top beverage company Inyange industries where he vowed to begin looking at how its products can be exported to his country.
He however advised that infrastructural development was highly needed to boost such investments in the country.
President Sassou Nguesso is in the country on a three-day state reciprocal visit after his counterpart Paul Kagame visited his country last November.
