Editor,Sports officials in Rwanda should be careful and not be seen playing the foreigners’ card. One could easily charge them with xenophobia. Didn’t the FERWABA president know that some of these guys (Rwanda’s American players) have Rwandan nationality and are therefore entitled to play for their national team? Or, he is jealous that these guys were making more money than him? Who is behind such allegations? This just leaves a foul taste in Rwanda’s sports and therefore seeing talent developing will only remain a wishful thought.Jim, Kigali
