Dear Mr. President, I listened to your speeches today regarding the productive ability in Rwanda with great interest. For example you said that “it is not acceptable that we import low quality goods when we have the ability to produce high quality products in Rwanda.” You further proclaimed that “we have to ensure that the investments made here benefit the investors, but most importantly it must benefit Rwandans.”
These are wonderful words Mr. President. But what is your role in all of this as Rwanda CEO? Speaking of which, have you read the recently released 2015/2016 Rwanda Revenue Authority (RRA) Annual Report? The report has some harsh lessons for you – it indicates that you are still stuck on the drawing board in building a viable economy after 23 years in power.
President Kagame, the report is timely. It comes as you begin your next 17 year rule, as per constitutional amendment last year. So now that you are in total control, what will you do that you have not done in nearly two decades and half? FULL STORY
