Five years on: Visionary leadership worth emulating

It has been stated that the greatest calling in life is the call to public service. On Friday, the Cabinet celebrated five years since the inauguration of President Paul Kagame as Head of State. In doing so, the cabinet in effect was celebrating an important stage in the President’s life as someone who has dedicated most of his life to public service. We recall that five years ago Rwanda witnessed a unique moment in its history. A free democratic process gave Rwandans the leadership they deserve and choose. Given the recent history of our country, this was indeed a unique moment. And for five years now, we can state without any fear of contradiction that the President has led the country with the greatest dedication any leader can offer his people. The achievements that were enumerated by the Prime Minister Bernard Makuza are a manifestation of what a people can achieve with visionary and practical leadership.
