Renowned hip hop star, Michael Jackson is set to visit Rwanda, The New Times
has reliably learnt. The Deputy Director General of ORINFOR, Ms Kije Mugisha,
confirmed yesterday that the musician will visit Rwanda next June.
"Yes, Michael Jackson will be here in June 2007, he confirmed this," Kije
said on phone emphatically. Kije, who met Michael Jackson during a Global Music
Awards show in London, disclosed that, together with his administrative team,
the star was keen to assist in areas like health care, child education and
the media. She, however, didn't reveal how much money the celebrated artiste
would invest in the ventures.
"What I can say is that he appreciated coming to Rwanda; to know of Rwanda's
achievements since its a post conflict country," she said and added that
"Michael Jackson is eager to know how many hospitals are in place in Rwanda and
how he can help in improving people's health here." Kije, who also doubles as
the Director General of Rwanda Television, revealed that the hip hop star had
also promised to help the national television.
"He promised to do what he can afford to do. It could be in terms of
equipment or any other assistance. We shall get to know much of that when he is
here
in June next year," she said.
