In Summary: How Jeannette Kagame continues to harass Jeannette Rwigema (Widow)

Sometime back a group of women members of the Rwanda Patriotic Front (RPF) revealed their worries that the First Lady Jeannette Kagame and her husband  are about to fail the country .
According to them, Many publications especially those on internet have been criticising the regime in Kigali.

But none has dared to write about the First Lady Jeannette Kagame yet those close to the first family know that she (Jeannette) is the one behind all orders from the state house.

She recommends who should be employed where, orders for the silencing of those critical to the president and putting out of action those who dare to compete with him in business like of transportation is Onatracom Buses and other important decisions in the country.

The first lady has never had motherly emotions or empathy to those in need, many of us instead know her as brutal, heartless and full of envy to fellow women as we open to you in this writing.

Jeannette Rwigema is the widow to late Fred Gisa Rwigema. This lady had been a confidant of Jeannette Kagame when they were girls living in Burundi and Nairobi in Kenya. But ever since Jeannette Kagame became the First Lady, Ms Rwigema’s life became a living hell.

One of such instances that prove how, the First Lady made sure Ms Rwigema’s life is kept miserable is when they (Kagame and wife) ordered through police commissioner Mary Gahonzire, that she be summoned by the police CID after their spies led by Jack Nziza alleged that MS Rwigema was receiving financial support from Salim Saleh, Brother to President Museveni of Uganda.

To make the allegation more serious, the spies said she was mudslinging the First Lady; the widow was interrogated even about her private life that we cannot reveal to preserve her dignity.

For a period of three months, Ms Rwigema would stay at the police CID from morning to evening with her shoes removed being mocked by Gahonzire who could even spit in her face. With that torture, the poor woman ended up getting hospitalised with hypertension at King Faisal Hospital for two days. The First Lady ordered for the closure of her business and called to an end her partnership with Leah Karegeya.

After all that harassment, the First Lady was not done, she got a group of women who regularly visited Ms Rwigema as friends but spied on her to hear what she thinks of Kagame and his wife but she (Rwigema) realised it when she saw the women who visited her were not of her social class. State house had ensured that her family friends like Ms Thereza Karuletwa and Ms Rujugiro were frustrated due to their relationship with Rwigema.

Others who tried to get close to her for example members of the Mothers Union at St Etiene church Biryogo where she was a member among them include Ms Chantal Mbanda, Josephine Kabutura, and wife to Bishop Antoine Rutayisire, were also summoned by Police and cautioned against talking to Ms Rwigema. Her children were banned from visiting the state house.

Subjecting the innocent window to that kind of harassment, Jeannette Kagame would remorselessly tell other RPF women that she wanted to “teach her a lesson, show her who she is”, yet many of the women she was telling were hurt and just looked down on her since they had nothing to say about it.

Jeannette Rwigema was subjected to isolation, she could not call any of her friends nor could she receive any phone calls from friends who were all subjected to intimidation from the First Lady and her spies.
In those days, the First Lady threw a birthday party to the President celebrating his fiftieth (50) birthday and refused to invite the Rwigema family.

Surprisingly when Kagame was given a word, his speech centred on his relationship with the late Fred Rwigema as they grew up. with visible emotions, Kagame fondly talked about his life with the late Rwigema so much that other guests started looking for where the fallen hero’s family could be only to realise no single member had turned up because the First Lady had not invited any.

What she did not realise was how guests despised her lack of respect to her husband’s childhood friends especially given the fact that among such friends present were senior Ugandan military officers like Gen Mugisha Muntu and Col Rutaya.

The First Lady has done so many unimaginable things to the late Rwigema’s family, we cannot forget to say that she ordered state house’s termination of paying for the children’s education saying the mother had chosen expensive schools in South Africa yet the First Son Ivan Cyomoro was sent to a US academy with all the security detail around him paid by the government.

To reclaim her freedom, Ms Rwigema was subjected to a non-worthy apology in words we cannot say here, and forced to sign a statement saying she is a good relationship with the First family, just to clear the air after the opposition especially the RNC had put all the secrets out. That is when they allowed her to operate her Travel Bureau.

Just like Ms Rwigema was treated that is how all those who oppose Kagame are treated to conceal all the evil deeds the first family is doing. To prove that Rwigema’s ghost still haunts Kagame, he now prefers having the October 1 Heroes’ Day celebrated at the village level than the national level to avoid talking about Rwigema’s heroism .

Rwigema’s widow is left without relatives because whoever shows any good relationship with her find themselves in trouble or even have their days numbered.

All those are the evil works of Jeannette Kagame and her cohorts led by Gen Jack Nziza.
The intention of these letters is to show Rwandans how bad and remorseless Jeannette Nyiramongi Kagame is and her role in the destruction of Fred Rwigema’s family; how she gives jobs to the people she can use the way she pleases and her role in the plundering of the country’s wealth.

We promise to give you more about how she lived in Burundi, Nairobi and other evil deeds she has committed to those who were her friends and her untold misconduct.
