{Yesterday, First Lady Mrs Jeannette Kagame joined 2,000 people, mostly youth in a Walk to Remember which began from Parliament to Petit Stade.}<\/p>\n

The walk was organized jointly by the City of Kigali and Peace and Love Proclaimers, a well known youth organization. <\/p>\n

After the walk, proceedings followed at Petit Stade, with one of the major highlights being a presentation by Brigadier General Andrew Kagame. Brig Gen Andrew Kagame spoke about the RPAs leadership and discipline as the driving force behind it’s victory over the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. He paid particular tribute to various battalions for conducting rescue missions, while bravely fighting the genocidal forces. He encouraged the youth to protect what the previous generations have fought so hard to achieve.<\/p>\n

Through poems, songs and a play, the youth reflected on the genocide as well as pledged to take Rwanda to the next level. <\/p>\n

Other notable guests were the Minister of Culture and Sports, Julienne Uwacu, Minister Valentine Rugwabiza, the Mayor of Kigali, Fidele Ndayisaba, other Mayors and Vice Mayors from districts surrounding Kigali City, and youth leaders. <\/p>\n

In the closing speech, Minister Julienne Uwacu urged the audience to remember all the widows, orphans, survivors and as well as those who fought to stop the genocide. She told the youth to put their energy into building Rwanda and protecting it from those who want to destroy it.<\/p>\n
