He replaced Ernest Jumbe Mangu who had been representing his country to Rwanda since 2018.<\/p>\n<p>After presenting credentials, both envoys expressed delight for a warm welcome in Kigali and pledged to strengthen bilateral ties.  <\/p>\n<p>Amb. Ibrahim Sidy Ibrahim Matar said that his country can learn a lot from Rwanda\u2019s experience and vice versa during his four-tour of duty.  <\/p>\n<p>According to Maj Gen Makanzo, much effort will be expended to expand relations between Tanzania and Rwanda as countries sharing common history.  <\/p>\n<p>He said that Tanzania and Rwanda enjoyed cordial relations for long even before Independence where Tanzanians and Rwandans have become brothers.<\/p>\n<p>Makanzo revealed that his duties are about supporting efforts aimed at expanding existing relations and cooperation and identifying new areas of collaboration for interests of both countries\u2019\u2019 people.  <\/p>\n<p>Rwanda and Tanzania enjoy cordial relations and cooperation in the areas of politics, infrastructure, economy and security.<\/p>\n<p>Tanzania is considered a major development partner where over 70% of Rwanda\u2019s imports and exports are transited through.<\/p>\n<p>Amb. Mutayoba explained that facilitating the elimination of trade barriers and free movements of people are also part of his responsibilities.   <\/p>\n<p>In 2018, Rwanda and Tanzania agreed on constructing a railway from Isaka to Kigali expected to ease movements.  <\/p>\n<p>During the visit of Tanzanian President, Samia Suluhu Hassan to Rwanda last year, both countries signed four agreements in the areas of information and communication technology, immigration, education and regulation of medical products.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-41754 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/fpqf2exwyaio1790-4eb3a.jpg\" alt=\"President Kagame receiving credentials from Libyan envoy accredited to Rwanda. \" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-41753 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/fpqf2evxeaklb7f8-fda4b.jpg\" alt=\"Tanzanian envoy presenting credentials to President Kagame at Village Urugwiro. \" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-41752 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/fpqf2erwyacm5b8a-d17ef.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{President Paul Kagame has received letters of credence from Maj Gen Richard Mutayoba Makanzo, the High Commissioner of the United Republic of Tanzania and Ibrahim Sidy Ibrahim Matar, Ambassador of the State of Libya.}<\/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":[72,75],"byline":[170],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-45601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-featured-news-home","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\/45601","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=45601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45601\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45601"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=45601"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=45601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
