Rwanda yet to name wanted refugees

By Moses Walubiri

Government has quickly moved to refute reports that it’s already considering Rwanda’s request to extradite seven of its nationals enjoying refugee status in Uganda, clarifying that it’s yet to receive the names of the ‘wanted people.’

President Paul Kagame

Rwanda, through its Inspector General of Police, Emmanuel Gasana, without naming names, recently requested the extradition of seven refugees it accused of committing a litany of crimes.

State Minister for Refugees, Musa Ecweru, was earlier this week quoted by French News Agency (AFP) as saying that government is considering Rwanda’s request, implicitly indicating that Kigali had finally submitted the names of the wanted refugees.

“Rwanda is yet to give us the names,” Commissioner for Refugees, Apollo Kazungu, said when asked about the AFP report, adding; “In any case, we will strictly abide by the laws and conventions governing refugees.”

Kazungu said Rwanda will have to adduce a convincing case that the refugees being sought have genuine criminal charges to answer, noting; “being granted refugee status doesn’t grant any one amnesty from prosecution for crimes committed.”

According to Article 41 of the Refugee Act, the Minister for Refugees in consultation with Commissioner for Refugees might okay the extradition of a person granted refugee status to a country which has extradition agreement with Uganda.

Kwa kawaida wanawake wanafikia kilele (mwisho wa utamu wa ngono) kati ya dakika ishirini na saa moja, yaani kwa kifupi inawachukua muda mrefu sana hali inayopelekea mpenzi mvivu kuchoka na ufanyaji wake utakuwa wa “ovyo” hali itakayo kufanya wewe kuishiwa na hamu ya kuendelea. Pamoja na kuchelewa huko ambako kunatokana na utofauti wetu kati ya mwanaume na mwanamke lakini nakumbuka hapo nyuma nilikutana na wanawake 2 waliokuwa ndani ya ndoa na wamezaa lakini hawajawahi kabisa kujua utamu wa tendo hilo alimaharufu kama “kufanya mapenzi”. Natambua kuwa ni ngumu au niseme si wanawake wote ambao wamejaaliwa kimaumbile kwamba wanafanikiwa kufika kileleni zaidi ya mara mbili kila wanapofanya mapenzi/ngono (kumbuka ni kati ya dakika 15 na saa moja hivyo Jibaba hapa awe na uwezo wa kujizuia kwa zaidi ya dk 45) na ikiwa jamaa ni “mzamiaji” basi unaweza ukaondoka na goli 3 ktk mzunguuko mmoja. Lakini kwa nini basi baadhi yao tu ndio wafike kileleni na wengine was...

Mushikiwabo to UN: Enhance civilian protection

By Eugene Kwibuka Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation has urged the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to invest more energy in the prevention of conflicts for better protection of civilians living in conflict-torn areas. Rwanda’s Foreign minister, Louise Mushikiwabo Louise Mushikiwabo made the call during an open debate on the protection of civilians in armed conflict which the UNSC held in New York on Tuesday. “Rwanda’s core message today is that enhancing the protection of civilians in armed conflict requires action before a conflict starts. The proliferation of non-state armed groups makes civilian protection both more urgent, and harder to achieve,” she said. For better protection of civilians in armed-conflict areas, the minister emphasised the need to increase investments in professionalising the military and police forces through adequate training. “Only when the leadership of armed forces shares the international...
