Dear editor,
 
It is funny and at the same time saddening to see Rwandan soccer players indulging in voodoo or witchcraft as most would call it.

Wednesday, a photo showing Rayon Sport’s defender Amiable Rucogoza planting voodoo like substances was published.

This depicts a sign of illiteracy to some extent. I say this because it is well known that it is the hard work coupled with skill and training together with discipline that will make a football team successful.

No amount of charms and chanting will make the ball enter the net. Understanding this is simple; the legs of the soccer players are what put the ball into the net.

Rwandan footballers need to overcome the paranoia they have about losing a game. They should know that football is just another game and for every game there is a loser and a winner.

More emphasis should be put into training and learning new skills instead of indulging in hopeless voodoo. Besides the bible says there is a special place for those who indulge in witchcraft and sorcery.
