Following elections held on Monday, July 15, 2024, the National Electoral Commission (NEC) revealed that Kagame secured a resounding victory with 99.15% of the votes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis election process, the campaign we conducted first, the voting, and the results that have just been released, mean something significant in a person\u2019s life; it symbolizes trust, for which I thank you,\u201d President Kagame said.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that trust is not easily earned and requires time and consistent effort. \u201cTrust is built over time,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on his leadership and the journey he has shared with the Rwandan people, Kagame noted the importance of facing challenges head-on.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this trust and all these years we have spent together solving many difficult challenges, was there ever a time when you saw me at a loss for solutions? I am never defeated by challenges,\u201d he declared, reinforcing his commitment to overcoming obstacles with the continued support of the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven in the difficult situations we have gone through or will go through in the future, trust is the reason for it all. Trust makes me confident that together, there is no challenge we will not surmount.\u201d<\/p>\n

The partial results also indicated that other presidential candidates, Dr. Frank Habineza of the DGPR party and independent candidate Philippe Mpayimana, received 0.53% and 0.32% of the votes, respectively.<\/p>\n

By Monday, 7,160,864 votes had been counted, with an expected turnout of over nine million Rwandans and 98% voter turnout.<\/p>\n

NEC is set to announce provisional results on July 20, with the final results expected on July 27.<\/p>\n
