According to Uganda High Commission in Kigali, Rwanda, Hon. Kutesa delivered a special message from President Yoweri Museveni to his counterpart.<\/p>\n

A lot more has not been announced on what constituted the \u2018special message\u2019.<\/p>\n

Mr. Kutesa had earlier on Thursday met with Dr. Richard Sezibera and congratulated him upon his recent appointment as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Cooperation, and East African Community.<\/p>\n

They discussed issues of bilateral interest and pledged to work closely to broaden and deepen cooperation between Uganda and Rwanda.<\/p>\n

Dr. Sezibera replaced Louise Mushikiwabo, who was on 12 October 2018 unanimously elected by the Heads of State and Government of the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF) member countries as the next OIF Secretary-General.<\/p>\n

The meeting of the two came after a number of Rwandans were caught and arrested, tortured and later released while others are still detained in Uganda.<\/p>\n

The latest was Patrick Niyigena, 38, a businessman who was first kidnapped in Uganda, tortured as he was injected substances he has not yet known.<\/p>\n

In March this year, President Kagame held a visit to Uganda and met his counterpart Museveni with whom they discussed security issues and bilateral relations. Museveni said then that, \u201cThere is no fundamental problem between Uganda and Rwanda.\u201d<\/p>\n
