Rwanda: FDU-Inkingi refutes false statements from Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi

JANUARY 26, 2014  
Kigali, January 26, 2014.
RWANDA: FDU-INKINGI REFUTES FALSE STATEMENTS FROM IMPOSTERS
This Saturday, January 25, 2014, a gentleman named Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi issued a press release that uttered crude lies on an alleged meeting between the delegation of the UN investigators on human rights currently in visit to Rwanda and two members of the FDU-Inkingi's Provisional Executive Committee (CEP), namely Flora Irakoze, the Treasurer, and Fabien Twagirayezu, the Spokesperson.
What is more disgusting is that in his press release Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi slandered two international organizations, namely Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, alleging that these organizations might have accompanied the CEP delegation which met with the UN investigators.
This lie alone suffices to reveal the true intentions of Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi. Indeed, it is incomprehensible and sad to implicate international organizations in a maneuver he already knew was malicious.
Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi claims that Ms. Flora Irakoze was part of the CEP delegation that met with the UN investigators. However, for more than two months, Ms. Flora Irakoze is in hiding because the police are on her trail. The RPF regime is chasing her because she co-signed the famous letter sent to the Prime Minister by some students from colleges and universities who were complaining against the government's decision to suspend scholarships to certain categories of students. It was therefore necessary for Ms. Flora Irakoze to seek a hideout for security reasons. Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi who claims to work with her should be aware of this information. Otherwise, he is uttering pure lies.
It is also worth reminding all of you who have been misled by such lies that the FDU-Inkingi's leadership is in Kigali with Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza as the party's Chair while the party's Secretary General is Mr. Sylvain Sibomana. Abroad, the party is represented by the Coordinating Committee, which is currently led by Dr. Nkiko Nsengimana. There is no member of this Coordinating Committee known as Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi.
It is true that various foreign delegations that stop by Kigali usually visit the FDU-Inkingi's CEP and the party's Chair, Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, in her cell at the Kigali Maximum Security Prison, which is mostly known as "1930". When it is necessary to make a public statement about such visits, it is up to the party's official structures to do so.
The party FDU-Inkingi therefore requests that the statements of this gentleman Jean-Baptiste Mberabahizi and his acolytes be taken as what they really are, that is, pure lies aimed at intoxicating, slandering and sabotaging the party's actions in its efforts to relieve the people of Rwanda that are currently afflicted by the oppression.
The party FDU-Inkingi asks Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, which have been embarrassed by such utterances, to be understanding and to dismiss such statements from imposters which are not conducive to the well being of the party.
The party FDU-Inkingi finally urges its members and supporters to ignore such false rumors and put more energy into actions aimed at helping all Rwandans to resist against the oppressive regime.
For FDU-Inkingi
Boniface Twagirimana
Interim Vice-President

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines contre le Rwanda sont-elles si importantes ?

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines contre le Rwanda sont-elles si importantes ? Auteur : The African Rights Campaign. Londres, Royaume-Uni Publié en : mars 2026   Introduction Lorsqu'un gouvernement est accusé d'exécutions extrajudiciaires, de déplacements massifs, de violences sexuelles, de violations des droits de l'homme et du pillage systématique des ressources naturelles d'un pays voisin, la réponse diplomatique attendue est un démenti catégorique, étayé par des preuves. Le Rwanda ne l'a pas fait. Lorsque le département américain du Trésor a imposé des sanctions aux Forces de défense rwandaises (FDR) et à quatre de leurs commandants les plus haut placés, le 2 mars 2026, la porte-parole officielle de Kigali, Yolande Makolo, a délivré une déclaration que les analystes diplomatiques étudieront attentivement pour ce qu'elle omet conspicuement. Elle a dit que les sanctions étaient « injustes », qu'elles ciblaient « uniquement...

Why US Sanctions Against Rwanda Are So Important

Why US Sanctions Against Rwanda Are So Important Author: The African Rights Campaign. London, UK Published: March 2026   Introduction When a government is accused of extrajudicial killings, mass displacement, sexual violence, human rights abuses, and the systematic pillage of another country's mineral resources, the expected response in international diplomacy is an unequivocal denial backed by evidence. Rwanda did not do that. When the United States Department of the Treasury imposed sanctions on the Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) and four of its most senior commanders on 2 March 2026, Kigali's official spokesperson Yolande Makolo made a statement that diplomatic analysts will study carefully for what it conspicuously omitted. She said the sanctions were 'unjust,' that they targeted 'only one party to the peace process,' and that they 'misrepresent the reality and distort the facts.' Rwanda's government, described by Bloomb...

Rubaya Mine Under USA’s Control: Kagame Has No Grounds to Object.

Rubaya Mine: Strategic Interests, Regional Conflict and the DRC–USA Cooperation Framework Rubaya mine, located in Masisi territory in North Kivu, eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, is a Congolese resource. It was a Congolese resource before the M23 advanced on it, it remains a Congolese resource today, and it will remain a Congolese resource regardless of what any regional actor claims, implies or pursues. That is not a political position. It is a statement of international law and sovereign right. This foundational point must be stated plainly because it is frequently obscured in discussions about the conflict in eastern Congo. Debates about security narratives, mineral partnerships and geopolitical alignment risk creating a false impression that Rubaya's ownership or governance is somehow open to negotiation between external parties. It is not. The Democratic Republic of the Congo holds sovereign authority over its territory and its natural resources. N...
