{Rwandan Prosecutor and spokesperson of National Public Prosecution Authority, Alain Mukurarinda, refuted claims that he had deserted the music field because President Kagame has commanded him to stop music career in order to serve better the work of the government.}
Mukurarinda said there were rumors that President Kagame ordered him to stop music career, but during a press conference that took place on 21 November 2013, Mukurarinda explains that “those rumors have no basis”.
He said that many people keep asking him whether he has stopped his music career due to the presidential order but he responds to them that “Although they ask and say that, the truth is that such rumors are lies”
He added that “Even law gives the right to do so; President has never ordered me to stop my music career”
However, Mukurarinda told journalists that “During These past two Years” as a prosecutor, he had been taking part in the trial of two cases, one of Victoire Ingabire (the leader of FDU-Inkingi) and another one of Dr. Leo Mugesera (who was arrested and jailed due to his role in the 1994 Genocide against Tutsis.”
Mukurarinda also took the opportunity to show media that he is still a musician. “I’m back. I have new songs ranging from the 50th anniversary of Mukura Football Club to love songs, culture and social life,” says Mukurarinda.
Mukurarinda is a legend who started singing with traditional bands.
