When children wake up during night hours, they hit walls because we have no lights inside. Besides, children cannot revise courses overnight due to the lack of electricity,\u201d she said.  <\/p>\n<p>The Minister of Emergency Management, Marie Solange Kayisire has requested beneficiaries to keep taking good care of these shelters and assured them that they will be connected to electricity in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe governor has shed light on the issue of electricity. It is among infrastructures Rwandans deserve. The seven-year National Strategy for Transformation seeks to connect everyone to electricity. That is why he told you that President of the Republic has addressed the matter. As leaders, it is our responsibility to put it into implementation. You have received the promise, and need to be prepared to switch lights,\u201d she said.           <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why we expend much effort in disaster management and supporting affected people. We assure our commitment to continue building capacity, partnership with all relevant partners and provide assistance to disaster-hit residents,\u201d added Kayisire.  <\/p>\n<p>In the last fiscal year, Nyamasheke District built houses for 160 families affected by disasters including 117 sheltered Bushekeli Sector.  <\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-43245 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/img-20220705-wa0022-3a20c.jpg\" alt=\"The model village is built in Bushekeli Sector\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{A total of 117 families affected by disasters in Bushekeli Sector of Nyamasheke District have been resettled in a model village built in the same sector.}<\/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-46146","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\/46146","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=46146"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46146\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46146"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=46146"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=46146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
