I  have got to give it to Kagame ,  he  has come a long way  with regards to public speaking . I wonder how long  it took him to cram this speech… I was surprised by his  audacious rendition; he  must have practiced it very seriously!  Although I am certain he is not familiar with most of the words this address was  embellished with , and even though he is  still intellectually far  from the IVY League  substance of the issues he was attempting  to dissert , he deserves some credit for the vocal rhythm .

We would have appreciated hearing  Mr Kagame speak candidly about the current issues in Rwanda  in stead of hiding behind  his  chairmanship of the African Union and  praising the efforts of peace in the horn of Africa when  the only peace he  practices at home is tyranny and ruthless repression.

-Mr Kagame, the management  of the  tremendous potential as you call it , goes hand in hand with   democracy!

When Kagame speaks of forward looking  and assures the UN assembly that political transitions are  being  handled in a peaceful manner with reduced external mediation ,I wonder if the assembly he is lying to is aware of the serious problems that remain “unresolved” in his own country  and  that the “so much  potential” he  could  settle those with is behind bars and or in safe houses all over Kigali!
