Dear editor, I am glad to receive the beaming news of US President George W. Bush’s tour. According to your issue dated February 14, he is scheduled to arrive in Rwanda on Tuesday. I request that when he meets our beloved president, he should be brought to understand that Rwanda was the first country to deploy peacekeepers in Darfur as part of the African Union mission in August 2004. The U.S.-trained Rwandan troops have helped Rwanda continue to be a strong regional voice for greater and stronger international involvement in ending the genocide in Darfur. The US President should also participate in dedicating the new U.S. Embassy in Kigali in Kacyiru. When this is faithfully done, he will not only have shown compassion but also helped to bring the post war country back to its roots and we will thank him for that. He is expected to visit Benin, Tanzania, Ghana and Liberia but if I had been him, I would go to Kenya as well. Masaka
