We stand with @LantosFndn and global civil society to call on the government of #Rwanda to 'declare peace' on political rivals. The Paul Kagame regime has a long history of imprisoning, disappearing, and murdering his critics with impunity. This must end. lantosfoundation.org/rwanda-peace-s…

@faisalislam @BBCr4today Going very well, Faisal!

Well, good morning. Early start. ⏰ #debut @BBCr4today

Deplorable.

Victoire Ingabire continues to be threatened by the RPF leadership. Kagame’s words are irresponsible and dangerous. Letter: No Rwandan would fail to see what Kagame’s com­ments meant ft.com/content/db24f6… via @ft

Violent rhetoric in political discourse must be condemned by all who support the rule of law and democratic freedoms. #Rwanda ft.com/content/db24f6…

The Security Council demands that the Rapid Support Forces immediately stop the siege of El Fasher where hundreds of thousands of civilians are sheltering. Today’s UK-led resolution seeks to avert a massacre and create the wider conditions for de-escalation across the country.

Rwanda's Victoire Ingabire asks EA Court of Justice to restore her civic rights. #NilePostNews nilepost.co.ug/rwanda/198024/…

Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza files a case before the East African Court of Justice (EACJ) to seek restoration of her civic rights. Today, April 30th, 2024, Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza initiated proceedings before the East African Court of Justice (EACJ), to obtain a ruling against the Rwandan State’s refusal to restore her civic rights, including the right to run in the elections scheduled to take place in Rwanda in July 2024. In January 2010, Ms. Ingabire Umuhoza voluntarily returned to #Rwanda from exile in the Netherlands to participate in the Presidential elections scheduled to take place later that year. Instead, she was arrested and convicted to 15 years’ imprisonment. Her trial was internationally condemned as being politically motivated. She appealed before the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights which ruled that the Rwandan State had violated her rights to freedom of expression and a defense. In September 2018, Ms Ingabire Umuhoza was released following a Presidential pardon, after serving eight years in prison, five of which were spent in solitary confinement. In March 2024, the High Court in Rwanda controversially denied Ms. Ingabire Umuhoza’s application for rehabilitation, preventing her from recovering her civic rights, including the right to travel out of Rwanda and to participate in any elections in Rwanda. The High Court’s decision represents the latest episode in a series of systematic efforts by the Rwandan State to prevent Ms Ingabire Umuhoza from participating, in any way, in Rwandan political life. The decision violates Rwanda’s obligations under the East African Community Treaty, which require Rwanda to abide by fundamental principles of democracy, rule of law, and human rights. Ms Ingabire Umuhoza’s claim before the EACJ includes an urgent request for interim measures, to prevent the irreparable harm that would be caused from precluding her from registering as a Presidential candidate in line with the timetable for the Presidential elections scheduled for 15 July 2024. The claim also includes other requests to remove restrictions preventing her from leaving Rwanda. Since her pardon in September 2018, Ms Ingabire Umuhoza has been prevented from leaving Rwanda, including to attend the wedding of her son, the birth of her grandchild, or to visit her gravely ill husband in The Netherlands. @PaulKagame @VictoireUmuhoza @UN @hrw @HRF @CNN @CNNAfrica @Rwanda_Justice @eugirashebuja1 @jumuiya @FbdnStories @AJEnglish @ZEMBLA @bonifacemwangi @adriano_nuvunga @freedomnoworg @Knack @ap @africanews @geoffreyyork @UKinRwanda @ambafrancerwa @USAmbRwanda @AnneliesVl @AfriqueTweet @VavaTampa @VOAAfrica @stand_for_all @JamesWoodfield @marcuschown @reformparty_uk @xtr_africa @_Kate_Gibson @SheilaPaylan @iain_edwards @palkisu @ByDonkeys @Romain_Molina #EndDictatorship #HumanRights #FreedomofExpression #Africa
