Addressing a vibrant crowd in Nyagatare District, President Paul Kagame, the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) flag bearer, delivered a stirring speech emphasizing the importance of unity, development, and democracy.
As part of his campaign trail, Kagame called upon the youth to embody the spirit of resilience and leadership.
“Voting for the RPF means voting for development, for unity, but this act is also democratic,” Kagame declared, highlighting the party’s commitment to progress and national cohesion.
He underscored the critical role of democratic participation in shaping Rwanda’s future.
In a direct appeal to the younger generation, Kagame said, “To you, the youth, the future belongs to you. Be lions, not cowards. Lions remain lions even as they grow old.”
He urged the youth to draw inspiration from the courage and determination of those who fought for Rwanda’s liberation, emphasizing their duty to carry forward the nation’s legacy.
Reflecting on Rwanda’s tumultuous history, Kagame reminded the audience of the sacrifices made by earlier generations.
“You, the youth, have the responsibility to continue the journey started by those who came before you, including those who fled [as refugees] through this region before coming home through this same border to liberate this nation,” he said, evoking the enduring spirit of resilience that has characterized Rwanda’s journey.
Kagame’s speech in Nyagatare is part of a broader campaign effort aimed at mobilizing support for the RPF ahead of the upcoming elections.
His message of unity, development, and the vital role of the youth resonates strongly in a district that has seen significant progress and transformation under the RPF’s leadership.
The rally in Nyagatare drew thousands of supporters, reflecting the widespread enthusiasm for Kagame’s candidacy and the RPF’s vision for Rwanda’s future.
As the campaign progresses, Kagame’s call for courage, responsibility, and democratic participation continues to inspire and galvanize Rwandans across the nation.
