Our life is at risk because these structures might fall on us anytime,\u201d said one resident.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am in my advanced age and have no source of income.  My wish is to get my old house renovated,\u201d said another resident.  <\/p>\n<p>The mayor of Ruhango district, Habarurema Valens has told IGIHE that the old structures in question will be demolished to set up a new model village.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do send settlement experts to assess the robustness of their houses to avoid susceptible risks. We expect to demolish old structures that have existed for long to be replaced by a model village,\u201d he noted.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey should rest assured of that. We shall provide rental fees as we build new houses for them at the current site,\u201d added Habarurema.  <\/p>\n<p>Ruhango district plans to start construction of the model village in collaboration with The Fund for Support to Genocide Survivors (FARG) from July in the 2021\/2022 fiscal year. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-37806 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/ruhango_district_headquarters.jpg\" alt=\"Ruhango district headquarters.\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{Survivors of the 1994 Genocide against Tutsi settled together in Gasharu village, in Murama cell Bweramana sector, Ruhango district in Southern Province have appealed for support to get decent shelters saying they currently live in old houses about to collapse}.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[75],"byline":[170],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-42880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-homenews","byline-igihe"],"bylines":[{"id":170,"name":"IGIHE","slug":"igihe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":8}],"contributors":[{"id":170,"name":"IGIHE","slug":"igihe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":8}],"featured_image":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/62"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42880\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42880"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=42880"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=42880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
