Grace Mukankusi is an upcoming musician. She sings about the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi but also does wedding music.

Below is how she spends her weekend;
My weekend starts on Friday at around 3pm. I go home and undertake some some domestic work as I also organize for what I have to do on Saturday.

I listen to a variety of music including church music.

On Saturday, I visit or invite friends to spend time together. If I am to spend the day out of Kigali, I sometimes travel to Kibuye to visit relatives. I love the place because I meet colleagues with whom we share past experiences.

If I am in Kigali, I prepare my favourite meal which is matooke with meat. In the evening, I may go to church to practice church music.

On Sunday, I go to church until 2p.m. I then watch movies for about two hours before meeting friends at around 5. Or, I may dedicate this time to my relatives, to discuss and enjoy together.

At around 6p.m, I plan for what I have to put on the next day. At around 7p.m, I either read a newspaper, a novel or a bible. I have supper at around 9 and go to bed at around 10p.m.
