Although that was a loss, I knew that our country had more cattle. I am thankful to our leadership for compensating me.\u201d The five donated cows, which are pregnant, were delivered by Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) and district authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have gathered here three days after the coward attack at the border. The attackers cannot do any more harm than shooting at our cattle; that\u2019s all they can do,\u201d Deogratias Nzabonimpa, the Vice-Mayor in charge Economic Development in Rubavu District, said Monday during the ceremony to handover the compensation.<\/p>\n<p>The DR Congo-based terrorist group, FDLR, attacked the border sector of Bugeshi during the night but were quickly pushed back by RDF, according to Maj. Gen. Alexis Kagame, the army\u2019s regional commander in the Western Province, who delivered the president\u2019s donation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FDLR have been weakened, but they can launch small attacks and kill cows or throw grenades if we are not watchful,\u201d Maj. Gen. Kagame told Bugeshi residents.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the RDF is capable of keeping Rwanda\u2019s security. \u201cWe troops are in Mozambique, in Central African Republic, in South Sudan and other parts. We cannot provide security there and fail in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also called on local residents to tighten community patrol, known as irondo, and work with security organs to ensure that borders are protected. Besides, the president\u2019s donation, local residents had pledged three cows as compensation to Twagirayezu, The New Times has learnt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
