About PAUL KAGAME'S Corrupt Style of Leadership!!!
Dear President Paul Kagame, Practice What You Preach Sir! Source: African
dictator: Dear Mr President, I never thought of writing you a letter Sir. I
am compelled to do so after listening to your speech yesterday on Wednesday
22, August 2011 to over 400 local leaders from Rwandan Districts. The main
message you kept driving home, your Excellency, was that Rwandan leaders
must work closely with the populace, avoid corruption and desist from using
national resources for individual own benefit. Indeed, your definition of
good leadership, as you kept repeating, is people-based and involves the
citizens the latter must be able to criticize their leaders where things
do not go right. As you emphasized, leaders in turn take criticism
positively and use it as an opportunity to improve their performance. The
Citizen is the king, according to your Excellency. Your Excellency, this was
a brilliant speech. In fact, translating it in English robs its strength,
especially where you emphasized that a Government that serves the interests
of the people is anchored on an unshakeable foundation. Excellent stuff! Mr
President, I thought that the high mark of your extraordinary speech was
when you warned against greed, reminding all Rwandans and their leaders,
presumably including yourself that there is no value in greed and that
greed may benefit an individual in the short term, but such individual has
no peace whatsoever, nor will he or she ever be at ease with such an
enormous burden. You repeated these themes over and over again Sir,
reminding the over 400 local Government leaders that their job is to protect
the resources of the citizens and ensure value for their money. Rwandans,
you said expect services equivalent to their resources there is simply no
room or excuse for failure to deliver to the people. Mr President, these are
all fine words, but do you live by the wisdom and standards you have
prescribed? Here are my problems, Your Excellency: The Jets: From where
did you get the money to buy these two jets that cost over US$100,000,000.00
pictured here? Where do you put the money that comes from the charter of
these jets when you are not using them? How much money do you take from
Rwandan taxpayers Treasury to finance the many trips you make abroad,
including visits made by your wife and children? Are you not bothered by
the fact that the Secretary to the Treasury, Kampeta Sayinzoga is your
nephews wife, Sir you never heard of the sins of conflict of interest?
The farm: Look at your 45-acre Lake Muhazi farm of yours it stretches on
both sides of the lake beyond behind you, where you and President Yoweri
Museveni are standing. Why so much land when the average population
density among the Rwandans is over 400 people per square kilometre?
Remember that you forced your thieving RPA Generals to return the land they
had grabbed? Why did you keep yours? The cars: You have a pair of Range
Rover, Mr President. Are they yours personally or they belong to the
state? Does this kind of vehicle give Rwandans dignity when you drive past
them in rugs? The companies: You are the one who runs Crystal Investments
that is how you made Professor Mannasseh Nshuti who failed in every post in
Rwanda, the Group Chairman. What have you done with the dividends from,
for example, Crystals most successful Company, MTN Rwanda, since it was
established more than 10 years ago? Show the Rwandan public, especially
RPF members that supposedly own Crystal, a single Annual Report please! The
properties: Admit it, Mr President you, your nephew Byusa and Katari
Sekoko own Kigali City Towers. Where did you get the cash? The London
Building : You, nephew Byusa and Hatari also own Rwanda House, the
building that houses the Rwandan High Commission. The Luxury Hotels:
Apparently, Your Excellency, you stay only in top hotels in your many trips
which not even the President of France or Prime Minister of Great Britain
would not dare set foot in because of accountability issues in their
countries. With your huge entourage that numbers over ten people, hotel
presidential suites must cost Rwandan taxpayers a fortune, Sir. Something
does not add up, Mr President. On your small salary as Head of State of a
low-income country whose gross domestic product stands at a mere US$5.6
billion (even poorer than Haiti at US$6.6billion, Uganda US$17billion, TZ
US$22billion and Kenya US$32billion), how have you acquired this enormous
wealth? What have we here then, Mr President? Greed, you said, may benefit
an individual in the short term, but such individual will never have peace
nor would he or she ever be at ease with such an enormous burden. So how do
you live with yourself, Sir? Arent you greedy or perhaps corrupt, Sir? But
here is your chance please, explain yourself. Otherwise Rwandans,
especially those 400 leaders you spoke to so eloquently might become
disillusioned by what appears to be a double-standard, Sir. Worried Citizen;
