President Paul Kagame accompanied by CAF President Patrice Motsepe, on Monday, July 1, officially opened the new Amahoro Stadium. The inauguration of the ultra-modern 45,000-seat facility was initially slated for July 4, coinciding with the 30th anniversary of Rwandan Liberation Day, but the Ministry of Sports moved the function to July 1 to ‘avoid scheduling conflicts.’ The inauguration event also featured a friendly match between 2023/24 Primus National League champions APR FC and Peace Cup winners Police FC. The winner will receive the Amahoro Stadium Inauguration Trophy.
