President Chapo is in Rwanda for a two-day state visit aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between the two countries.
In the message he wrote in the memorial’s guest book, he noted: “This is a place of deep remembrance and painful memory. We bow with utmost respect before the suffering you endured.”
He added: “Your history is a powerful reminder that humanity must never forget the consequences of division. At the same time, it is also a beacon of hope and a testament to the resilience of the Rwandan people.”
Chapo further stated that the peace Rwanda enjoys today stands as a remarkable achievement and should serve as a lesson to Africa and the world.
The Kigali Genocide Memorial is the resting place of more than 250,000 Tutsi who were killed in 1994 across different parts of Kigali.
