31 years ago today, Major General Fred Gisa Rwigema lead the RPA in the battle that defeated the Belgian neocolonialist agenda in Rwanda on July 4th, 1994.

Another year has come and gone and found Major General Rwigema’s pan-Africanist ideal intact. He remains the initiator and pioneer of the journey to Rwanda’s renewal.

There may be further battles to be overcome ahead before we can celebrate dignity and unity as a nation; until then, we remember his gallantry and loyally salute him. Rwigema OYE!
