Editor,

I have a simple advice for students: Stay focused and bear in mind that for every challenge you go through there is always a breakthrough.

At the moment you may be struggling to get a bus to take you to school because you know the value in education, but once you have achieved this you will be in position to look back and feel great about yourself for every earned success.

Your struggle today will always be your encouragement, milestone and an assurance to the country (Rwanda) for its great leaders. Do not be discouraged by a few challenges, rather stay on the course.
