Editor,

Kigali City Council appreciates the efforts of its residents in contributing to economic development programmes in which they willingly support the national budget by rendering their efforts through the construction of classrooms, decent shelter for the vulnerable families among others.

A case in point is the inauguration this month of the 12 years basic education classrooms in Jabana and Kanyinya sectors.

The classrooms were constructed with the support of the Government and efforts of the residents. During this inauguration, the residents of the sectors were celebrating their contribution to the development of their community.

Also during these celebrations, the residents of Amakawa Village who voluntarily contributed over one million Rwandan Francs were awarded with a certificate of recognition for their selfless initiative.

Some reports in the media, previously suggested that residents are charged extra money in exchange for services given to them which, is wrong. KCC also wishes to inform the public that no local leader is allowed to charge money in exchange for services to be rendered and whoever is found doing so will be punished.
