First Lady urges parents on good family values

During this occasion, Mrs. Jeannette Kagame has called upon parents to find time and talk to their children about education as well as adequately providing them with what they need to grow and study well.

Speaking to Kirehe residents, the First Lady said that the government of Rwanda wants a transformed country where they see notable changes in people’s lives which is why much emphasis is being made towards programs involving family promotion, governance and health.

“Today we are pleased with remarkable progress we have so far attained in the development of family promotion and good governance” she said adding to the importance of setting Early Childhood Development Centers (EDCs), supporting parents and children into early access to learning and development.

She advised parents to nourish children with foods rich in nutrients especially in the first 1000 days of the child’s life.

Mrs. Kagame reminded children and youth that their lives depend on the good and wise choices they make.
