“The Ethnocentrism served former Rwandan greed leaders”

{Rwandan Former authorities have been characterized by ethnocentrism to protect their selfish interests. This was revealed by the President of the Senatorial Commission of Development and Finance, Perrine Mukankusi, during an interview with IGIHE news website.}

She said the two previous regimes were characterized by ethnic sectarianism while citizens spoke the same language.

Mukankusi noted that nothing could have led to the 1994 Genocide against Tutsis except bad leadership that was dominated by ethnocentrism and sectarianism for the self interests.

“Those who still rely on ethnicity are greedy leaders, “she said.

Commenting on Ndi Umunyarwanda program, Mukankusi said that “Ndi Umunyarwanda program reminds us of what unites us. We must ensure our unit and disconnect us from the ideology of ethnocentrism that colonialism bequeathed to us, “she has said.

The senator stressed that the real Rwandan is the one who always fight for unity and reconciliation among Rwandans rather than being stuck in divisionism.

“Rwandans must look at the development rather than looking differences” she said.
