The Untold Stories: The RPF Regime is a Big Shame to Rwandan Heroes; The Ghosts might in turn haunt him.

As Rwandans under the Dictatorship of president Kagame thronged all the way to the Heroes final resting place at the Stadium Amahoro a lot of un answered questions are lingering on the lips of not only the realities of the fallen heroes but the whole society of Rwanda to why after all these heroes shed their blood overthrowing a dictatorial military regime of Habyarimana and replacing it with a hammer man who has not even spared a fly.

Obviously many Rwandans show frustration on the part of President Kagame. The RPF under Major Gen. Paul Kagame is a military regime, it is a military dictatorship and it is the military which captured power for Kagame. Kagame was never voted, it is the guns that brought him into Village Urugwiro and it is the guns that have kept him there. So the essence of the current regime is a military regime. However, because of international pressure and convenience, he has tried to create a facade of a civilian regime by first of all himself retiring from the army or claiming to retire from the army in order to stand in elections and then also organise regular elections which are monitored, doctored by RPF cadres and manipulated by his affiliated parties.

This is a facade to create a mask as if there is a civilian regime. Now this mask he created has actually served him as he wishes using both political parties that he either gives public money in exchange for loyalty or intimidates them for submission. However, some of his former comrades have not succumbed to these threats and one by one has started inching him, they are running away in great numbers and creating opposition political parties which have grown horns with spikes, which have   undoubtedly started pricking him

The freedom of press he has suppressed using his courts and security agents to muzzle and exterminate has added salt to an injury, whereas the Constitution allows freedom of press and association, Kagame a military officer in civilian suits has not hidden his true colors. Rwanda has become more militarised than any other post independence regime in our country, this is evident on our streets and villages   where hundreds of thousands in military fatigues are poured everywhere in the country as if the country is at war with anybody. Which aims at intimidating not only those who think that they can change the government by a ballot box  but also  the general public that you know, I came by force and you better know, I still have that force.

Many Rwandan having experienced genocide  and all sorts of crimes against humanity, with wounds still fresh in the minds of many , they  really  live in fear and especially under a military rule and so it is in line with what Kagame  has been doing – putting on our streets all these men in military uniform.

The current army Chief Charles Kayonga and his Defence Minister Gen Kabarebe are war criminals who see the survival of Kagame as their own survival and Rwandans should not think of any military to challenge to the brutality of the man considered a despot and autocratic more than Idi Amin and Bokasa of Uganda and Central African Republic respectively.

I think it is good that Rwandans are reminded that the RPF regime is not really a civilian regime and that if we really want power for the people; we must work for it because some people who are not really attentive on what is going on can get carried away and think that there is some sort of democratic dispensation.

It is very clearly spelt out in some of the Eight Point Program that ware established by the RPF  movement during the  struggle of having self sustaining mixed economy, now  what we are seeing is the RPF grabbing every business in the country under crystal ventures owning half of  the GDP of the Rwandans. Therefore whereas many Rwandans cannot take their children to good schools, have good medication, were seeing Kagame manipulating and indeed distorting statistics using his girls from the body he controls by the remote control to doctor  the Data  and deceive not only Rwandans but even the donor community that many Rwandans are moving away from the poverty bottom line.
Unfortunately the RPF group of companies are competing with the private sector which is actually suffering from political paranoia, which will not dare to mention this uneven competition in the labour market.

The government employees are forced to drink Inyange water, milk, and other products made by the Kgame industries.

The industry should be left to private sector so that the market benefits the production locally and not this veil where the RPF or its affiliated companies are becoming richer while the population is becoming poorer day by day.

 

It is a wonder how can a president or any other leader could be called or call himself His Excellency when his country cannot even make a needle, how can somebody call himself the president and own a fleet of aircrafts and other chain of business empires or sleeps in an accommodation of 20,000$ US   a night during one of the UN meetings when his people are suffering from jiggers, they have no shoes or kills whoever opposes his brutal regime. It is a shame that will raise from the ground the Ghosts of our heroes to haunt Kagame and his regime.
