Paul Kagame, the president of Rwanda started nicely in his country (Rwanda) which earned him and his government International recognition as one of the best leaders in Africa after the 1994 genocide that took millions of lives in the country (Rwanda). President Paul Kagame changed the face of his country (Rwanda) to greatness in the past which allowed majority in Rwanda to keep on voting for him to lead them. Majority in Rwanda wanted him to stay in power permanently which we (Viewers Corner News team) wrote against in the past as an International Advisers because we believe that somewhere along the line, problems will surely arise if he stayed permanently in office as majority had wanted. Now those things we (Viewers Corner News team) objected to in the past are manifesting.
In a democratic system of government, change is always required. No leader should be in office permanently no matter how good the leader may be in his or her job. It is better to serve a specific period of time in office which would not be too long and hand over to the next leader after an election has been properly conducted. This would give room for change as part of a democratic process, but in Rwanda today president Paul Kagame has taken the laws of the country in his hands by throwing people into jail and some of them are opposition leaders who were trying to air their views on various issues.
We (Viewers Corner News team) are calling on Africa Union (AU), the United Nations (UN), the European Union (EU), the United States of America (USA) and other countries of the world to ask president Paul Kagame of Rwanda to urgently release every political prisoner held in Rwanda prisons. These are politicians doing their jobs in line with the democratic principles based on our (Viewers Corner News team) findings. They have no reason to be in the prison. This is intimidation and we (Viewers Corner News team) ask that they should be released immediately.
Honestly, our (Viewers Corner News team) worry is; if intimidation of this sort continues in Rwanda, different rebel groups could be formed in the country (Rwanda) and before you know it, fight may start. The people of Rwanda suffered so much pains in the past and do not need any form of intimidation or fight anymore, hence we (Viewers Corner News team) are calling on the world to please take action now before it is too late.
