Editor, Agaciro Development Fund is one of the best initiatives in recent years. It’s an initiative that could inspire other African countries to pave the road towards real self-reliance, but I am worried about the management of the Fund – not for possible abuse but bureaucracy.
Editor, Agaciro Development Fund is one of the best initiatives in recent years. It’s an initiative that could inspire other African countries to pave the road towards real self-reliance, but I am worried about the management of the Fund – not for possible abuse but bureaucracy.Twenty billion Rwandan Francs is big money that can generate, at the minimum, six million per day and two billion a year.With my small means, I contributed around Rwf800, 000 towards the Fund this year from my pocket and I did a great job to convince some friends to contribute as well. It’s important that the Fund is managed transparently and professionally for the benefit of the nation – the current and future generations.Above all, we need to make the Fund sustainable.Peter, Kigali****************This is certainly very good news. Let’s mobilise all Rwandans to embrace this culture of self-reliance and make this Fund our own forever. I think that every Rwandan should contribute towards Agaciro Development Fund regularly.Jean-Marie Vianney Gatabazi (MP), KigaliReactions to the story, "Agaciro Fund contributions at Rwf20.4b” (The New Times, December 20)
