Rwandan culture doing us proud

Editor, Allow me to express my pride in Rwandan culture and its uniqueness. Having read an article in your paper ‘NUR goes cultural’ it’s impressive how unique our culture is, and how it can foster a spirit of community and sharing. Who can doubt that our culture can be an important key for unity and reconciliation among citizens?

Editor,

Allow me to express my pride in Rwandan culture and its uniqueness. Having read an article in your paper ‘NUR goes cultural’ it’s impressive how unique our culture is, and how it can foster a spirit of community and sharing. Who can doubt that our culture can be an important key for unity and reconciliation among citizens?

I love it when I see Rwandan youth still cherishing the legacy of their culture.  Here I wish to appreciate the students of National University of Rwanda for marking ‘Umuganura’- an event normally celebrated with a custom of sharing the first harvest.

I suggest that all local leaders take these celebrations to cell-level and have everyone sharing the fruits of their harvest together.
