President Paul Kagame has said that Genocide will never happen again in the country.
“Our country is on the right path. There is no chance-not in a million, that anyone will take us back to the past. It can’t happen,” He said.
The President was speaking at Amahoro National stadium officially opening the 18th commemoration of the Genocide against the Tutsi which claimed a million lives in 1994.
“We shall always commemorate the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi so that everyone can know the bad history of genocide our country went through…And what caused the genocide so that they can also continue remembering even in the period we shall no longer be around,” He said.
“Children born in Genocide are now with legal adult age allowing them to make decisions. They have grown up in the country with unity and where citizens have equal value, children have equal rights and opportunities and citizens are equal before the law.”
He noted, “Today we(Rwanda) are more powerful and have huge capacity than before. Rwandans have built their own security, improved their welfare and are happy with their role in nation building. This gives them hope for the better future.”
