Now, it seems Ethiopia's reformist Prime Minister #Abiy Ahmed just gave us a formula to kill claims of vote rigging in #Africa ! Appoint the opposition to head the electoral commission & vote counting! A politician from another planet! Incredible stuff!

Prez #Kagame 's record cannot &should never be compared to winners of the Nobel peace prize.He inherited a country in 1994 that many said wouldnt hold, he stopped genocide; reunited the nation through reconciliation& put it back on a development trajectory.Who else has done that?

Today, instead of investing in their own media substantively, many #African leaders invest collosal sums of dollars in PR firms in #Europe & #America to clean up their images damaged by human rights violations &tormenting their opponents at home! To tell our story, this shld end

For #Africa to tell it's own story, leaders in different states must first accept preconditions for that which are:1)freedom for media outlets, editors& journalists to determine what constitutes news (2) freeing media market (3)holding leaders accountable (4) trust & cooperation

Look at this propagandist-in-chief. This story is a fabrication used as strategy to knock-off the headlines our political formation announced on March 16. You neither know me nor have we met. Fiona says she was assaulted in 2017 but has been inviting to her TV shows since! How?

I am so sorry Fiona and I believe you. Kayumba is a violent predator who has abused his authority over students and harassed and assaulted many women. Some of us have spoken about it for years and the police cannot intervene until someone comes forward. Thank you Fiona.

Actually, even Serena hotel would never have been built if Rwanda followed naysayers, not even King Faisal hospital! At the time, "donors" wondered what a "poor" country wanted a five-star hotel for or top hospital! Now look how many five-star hotels we have! Listen NOT!
