In his address, Karega reminded them of the bad history the country went through that culminated into the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, reminding them of the stance the leadership in Rwanda has taken to ensure the country never goes back to such experience. “Rwanda today offers equal opportunity for Rwandans of all walks of life, from any historical background.
