Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>The Rwanda you see now was once an idea; a dream we used to talk about, but now are living. We have reached this far because of visionary leadership,\u201d Tito Rutaremara, Chairperson of Rwanda Elders\u2019 Advisory Forum, said during discussions on the heroism of RPF-Inkotanyi and the lessons young people can learn.<\/p>\n

This happened on a Twitter space that was hosted by \u2018Our Past Initiative\u2019 Thursday, April 28, aiming at drawing lessons from the brave acts of RPF.<\/p>\n

\u2018Our Past\u2019 is a youth-led initiative that aims to educate young people about the Genocide against the Tutsi and to inspire them to take the initiative to rebuild the country.<\/p>\n

Rutaremara said that building something bigger takes more hands. \u201cWe had to collaborate with different people and make them understand our vision, you can\u2019t build Rwanda alone. Building Rwanda takes every Rwandan.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the Genocide deniers or perpetrators, Rutaremara said there is need to stand up against them, as they are distracting some people who don\u2019t have the right information. He added that young people have a role to play in sustaining what had been achieved over the last 28 years.<\/p>\n

Fiona Kamikazi, a communication specialist, said that young people do not necessarily fight wars with guns. But rather, they build their country through the different sectors of the economy.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cthere are a lot of metrics used to determine development, but our country started from scratch. The advantage we have is the will and visionary leadership that is leading us.\u201d<\/p>\n

She lauded the bravery of the RPF. \u201cHowever much the situation wasn\u2019t suitable while fighting, with will and morale, they vowed not to go back until Rwandans have unity and reconciliation and a place to call home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Christian Intwali, founder of Our Past Initiative, said there are many lessons to learn from RPF, including being selfless, sacrificing oneself and pursuing the greater good.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t undermine our age just like the Inkotanyi didn\u2019t; they were not limited by any situation although there were many challenges. What I learn is being considerate, looking at the bigger picture.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ingrid Iriho, who lives in the United Kingdom, said that, for the young people in the diaspora to be patriotic, it takes parents’ effort talking to them and teaching them about the history.<\/p>\n

Iriho appreciated the government for putting in effort in empowering Rwandans in the diaspora, especially young people.<\/p>\n
