“Choices take part of daily lives. We have made good decision of voting for constitutional reforms. Your preferences determine your day, weeks, year and your life as well. The choices of Rwandans reflect our values. As youth you should continue making and pursuing smart sustainable choices,” he said.

He requested youth to be self reliant, understand that they hold the future of the country and avoid people who want to misinterpret their history.
“As youth, you must own your future in your hands, become self reliant which means you must not allow anyone to determine your destiny,” he said.
