Rwandan,
Burundian and Congolese opposition political parties and civil society
organizations operating in the United States of America have pooled their
efforts together to denounce Kagame’s visit to the White House.
One may wonder how did
this renowned criminal -also known as the African Hitler- end up on the Obama’s
guest list. Paul Kagame’s human rights
abuses, his dictatorship against the Rwandan people, his criminal record in
Rwanda and abroad are not consistent with the American values and ideals. In many regards, Paul Kagame is worse than Robert
Mugabe of Zimbabwe and other dictators who were not invited to Washington.
Paul Kagame
is a corrupt leader who has embezzled millions of public funds to finance his
lavish lifestyle. He has killed and/or imprisoned hundreds of journalists and his
political opponents, including prominent opposition leaders such as Victoire
Ingabire Umuhoza of FDU-Inkingi, Deo Mushayidi of PDP-Imanzi and Bernard Ntaganda
of PS-Imberakuri, just to name a few. He has sent his army to DRC and has used child soldiers and war proxies to loot natural resources, rape women, terrorize the
population or kill anyone opposed to his criminal enterprise. As a result, more
than 6 million Congolese and Rwanda refugees have been killed in DRC.
Dear
African friends, Congolese, Burundians and Rwandans of North America, let’s unite
in this critical moments so that we may one day get rid the Great Lakes region of this
dictator. Join many other freedom fighters across North America who vowed to free in no
time all of the oppressed and voiceless people of Rwanda, Congo and Burundi.
This is a great opportunity for all of us to proudly show our commitment to the
peaceful struggle for peace, freedom and democracy in the Great Lakes region of
Africa.
Should you
need more information or wish to support our efforts, please feel free to contact
our event coordinator, Mr. Felicien Hategekimana, Mobilization
Coordinator, FDU-Inkingi American Chapter at hategekimana125@yahoo.com or 269-779-6655.

forward to seeing you in Washington DC. Bring your friends, your stories, your drums,
trumpets and Vuvuzela.
