Dear Editor,

Gender Based Violence in Rwanda should be seriously tackled.
The violence has been part of our society for years and it is high time it ended.

As a way of living in peace and harmony, it is important to all Rwandans, men, women and children alike to know the dangers of violence.

The damage and trauma that the violence causes is tremendous and the victims, if they at all survive—are negatively affected.

Violence I believe is a problem that starts from ones mind and if people’s mentalities are not changed, then it’s difficult to eliminate it.

Therefore, I call upon all Rwandans to unite and say no to violence. In this way we can all live in peace and in harmony with one another.
