[RwandaLibre] Is Evode Uwizeyimana a prodigal son?

 

The Untold Stories: Is Evode Uwizeyimana a prodigal son?

Evode Uwizeyimana aiming for the top job

Watching an Empire Program on Aljazeera TV hosted by Marwan Bishara,
he describes Hollywood as the world's place where Americans'
perception of the US and its culture is shaped; you don't fail to see
Me Evode playing the same role. According to Mr. Marwan, Hollywood is
shaping people's perceptions of the US and world history.

The Parable of the Lost Son in Luke 15:11-32 where Jesus illustrated
how sinners can come back to God

"There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father,
'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property
between them. "Not long after that, the younger son got together all
he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth
in wild living. After he had spent everything, there was a severe
famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. So he went
and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to
his fields to feed pigs. He longed to fill his stomach with the pods
that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

Therefore the long trek from Rwanda to Canada might have been too long
for Me Evode to spend what he had and he is genuinely playing the
prodigal son to come back and ask for forgiveness as he appeared
yesterday in most of the Rwandan media. On the other hand Me Evode
knows very well how the Media shaped him and made him a movie actor in
the legal theater. Indeed, Evode might be playing the same tactics to
induce the appetite of the RPF to renewal his contract which is now 3
months away to expire or to get a permanent employment.

Whichever way, Evode is playing a cat and mouth game, he is being
watched by his game mates and at a right place and time he will never
know what will hit him. There is a saying that If you are 50 and you
keep reasoning like somebody who is 20, then the 30 years are not only
wasted but leaves a lot to be desired. Does Me Evode reflect on the
history and may be the path of RPF on the journey of consolidating
power? A good example is a testimony of Mr Abdul Ruzibiza on how
mistakes by both the Rwandan Government and the RPF led to the Rwandan
genocide of 1994. Ruzibiza having narrated in his book Rwanda:
L'Histoire Secréte and later tried to retract what he had said both in
his book and in the international media like BBC and VOA ,he forgot
that he was being watched by his play mates in the Kigali playing
field.

Cat Mouse game

No sooner had he played the games of cat and mouse than the co-players
on the opposite side had exterminated him, the rest is history. Does
Me Evode remember the way he described the entire RPF leadership as "a
gang of bandits" who disregard the rule of law? Indeed, he said that
it is one of the reasons that made him leave Rwanda when he was a
judge. On one occasion in the case of the brother (Rugigana Ngabo) of
the former Rwandan army Chief Gen. Kayumba Nyamwasa he described the
Rwandan legal system as people who are controlled by the remote
control from the President's Office who will only use political reason
rather than the legal reason.

RPF establishment knows very well the venom of Me Evode he injected in
the Rwandan people which is had to treat, besides the status quo of
the violations of Human Rights, lack of judicial independence,
extra-judicial killings, suffocation of the media, and incarceration
of the political opponents of the regime in Kigali. Despite the
rhetoric of repentance by Me Evode, he defiantly defended his
opposition to the regime in Kigali, he argued that his position was
constructive but he quickly added that if it was not well perceived by
(RPF) then he begs forgiveness. This sounds defiance not only to the
people who delve into the Hollywood theatrical staged political movies
but also to the RPF who knows very well how dangerous people or those
perceived to be should be given the dose of eternality. But the
History of RPF is clear; it's not necessarily what you do but what you
are perceived to be, the likes of Muvunanyambo, one of the soldiers
released from the prison during the Ruhengeri attack by the RPF in
1991 or Cpt. Frank Tega one of the RPF comrades were killed not for
what they had done but what they were perceived to do.

This is just a tip of iceberg, but as we approach the end of the
tenure of the Kagame regime many people will disappear especially
those perceived to harbor butterfly colors or those perceived to
switch sides like billboards, in fact many political assassinations of
many Rwandan politicians like Emmanuel Gapyisi, a prominent political
leader from the south and vice president of the MDR party at the time
and other selected murders nationwide like businessmen, mayors,
parliamentarians, and leading up to the assassination of Gatabazi,
Bucyana, and finally President Habyarimana are a vindication of what
is waiting for many politicians who not only oppose the RPF regime
but those perceived to be potentially capable to give RPF and Kagame
a bloody nose in the elections of 2017.

Whether Evode is playing the prodigal son or just opportunistically
trying to reap in both fields remains to be seen, but what is clear
though, he is being monitored every inch of his movements and Jack
Nziza or Dan Munyuza at any given opportunity would they perceive him
to be a potential threat he will be dealt in the same way many
Rwandans have been dealt with.

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...
