Sponsored by Museveni and Rujugiro to smear Rwanda, the RNC mouthpiece David Himbara thinks he found a smoking gun in gathering of motorbike taxi drivers expressing their opinion. His misplaced excitement shows that he does not understand how Rwanda works; his distortions and incitation for public disorder will never work in Rwanda.
Himbara aka Murunganwa specialized in “faking” since his younger days when he failed high school. He coined the name Himbara to sneak into University and has since then been faking everything from economic data to events in Rwanda. Unlike in Uganda ruled by his sponsor Museveni, peacefully gathering to express your opinion is allowed by the constitution in Rwanda. In Uganda, any such gathering is seen as a threat to the 36 years old dictatorship and brutally repressed with live bullets. Motorbikes taxi drivers, in Kigali, gathered and aired their concerns then went on with their usual activities. No one was teargassed, beaten or arrested as it is common practice in Uganda.
Museveni spends millions of Ugandan taxpayer’s money on Himbara to write smear that there is no freedom of expression in Rwanda. One can only wonder what his sponsor will make of the fact that he just published proof that there is freedom of speech and freedom to peacefully protest in Rwanda. The next question would be; when will Ugandans enjoy such freedom? Certainly, it will not be under Museveni’s brutal dictatorship!
