Uko nabwiwe ni uko intego yari uguhungabanya amatora ariko mu kubikora, twamenye ko bamwe muri bo bashakaga kwibasira ingabo zacu ziri muri Centrafrique.'

Perezida Kagame yavuze ko mu gihe cyashize, nta bikorwa byigeze bibaho bigamije guhungabanya Ingabo z’u Rwanda ziri muri Centrafrique, ariko ko iyo mitwe yajyaga inyuzamo ikamenesha abaturage gusa Ingabo z’u Rwanda zakomeje gushyira mu bikorwa inshingano zazo zo kugarura amahoro.

Kandi azadushoboza kurinda no kongera ubushobozi bwo kurinda ingabo zacu zibasiwe n’iyo mitwe yitwaje intwaro no kurinda abaturage.'

Ati 'Rero ingabo twoherejeyo zagiye mu buryo butandukanye, zigamije kureba ko twarwanya igikorwa icyo aricyo cyose kigamije guhungabanya amatora ndetse n’umutwe uwo ariwe wose wakwibasira ingabo zacu. Izi ngabo rero zizahangana n’icyo kibazo.'

Perezida Kagame yavuze ko mu gihe iyo mitwe yagerageza guhungabanya umutekano, Ingabo z’u Rwanda zoherejwe 'kugira ngo zikore akazi zigomba gukora'.

Guhera mu 2014, Ingabo z’u Rwanda ziri mu butumwa bwo kugarura amahoro muri Centrafrique. Ni kimwe mu bihugu bifite ingabo nyinshi mu butumwa bwa Loni bwo kugarura amahoro muri icyo gihugu (MINUSCA).

Hejuru yo kurinda umutekano no kugarura amahoro muri Centrafrique, Ingabo z’u Rwanda muri icyo gihugu guhera mu 2016 zifite inshingano zo kurinda Umukuru w’Igihugu.

Mu kiganiro yagiranye n’abanyamakuru kuri uyu wa Mbere tariki 21 Ukuboza 2020 nyuma yo kugaragaza uko igihugu gihagaze, Perezida Kagame yavuze ko ibyakozwe nyuma y’ifatwa rya Rusesabagina byari byitezwe.

Yagize ati 'Ibi ntabwo wavuga ko bitari byitezwe, twumva neza Isi tubamo. Nubwo umuntu yaba ari mu makosa gute, nta gihe hatazabaho abantu bavuga ngo uyu muntu ntabwo akwiriye gukorwaho.'

'No mu muryango iyo hari umuntu wakoze amakosa, ntabwo abo mu muryango bose bemera ko yakosheje. Ni amateka twabayemo. Urebye ahahise hacu twagize imiryango, bamwe bajya kwica abo mu yindi miryango, abasigaye mu miryango batakoze ibyaha birabagora kwemera ko umuntu wabo yakoze icyo cyaha, bashakisha uburyo bwo kumuhishira.'

Perezida Kagame yavuze ko bamwe mu batabariza Rusesabagina, bashobora kuba bamuzi igice, batazi uruhande rwe rubi. Icyakora, yavuze ko hashobora kuba hari n’abazi ukuri, bakakwirengagiza.

Ati 'Ndakeka ko bariya bantu banditse amabaruwa bavuga ibintu bitandukanye, bashobora kuba badafite amakuru cyangwa bayafite bakayirengagiza cyangwa bagatekereza ko amakuru ntacyo amaze, cyangwa se bati uyu muntu ni uw’ingirakamaro kurusha abantu babuze ubuzima kubera ibikorwa bye.'

Perezida Kagame yavuze ko abantu bafite uburenganzira bwo gutekereza ibintu bitandukanye ariko ko bidakwiriye kwitambika iyubahirizwa ry’amategeko n’itangwa ry’ubutabera.

Yijeje ko ubutabera buzakora akazi kabwo kugira ngo abagizweho ingaruka n’ibikorwa bya Rusesabagina babone ubutabera.

Perezida Kagame yavuze ko nta gitunguranye mu byabaye ndetse avuga ko bishoboka ko amabaruwa azakomeza kwandikwa.

Ati 'Ntabwo wavuga ko bitari byitezwe, wenda amabaruwa menshi azakomeza kwandikwa ariko twe tuzakurikiza ubutabera, icyo ubutabera buzatuyoboraho tuzareba ikizavamo […] Ndizera ko abo bazamura amajwi cyane mu buryo bubi wenda bazagira inyungu mu kumva ibyo tuvuga.'

This was during inspection and operations on compliance with COVID-19 directives conducted jointly by the Police and local authorities in Jenda Sector, on December 19-20.

They were arrested in two separate bars owned by Emmanuel Kubwimana, 45, and Felix Niyoyita, 32 in Nyirakigugu and Kabatezi cells respectively.

Some of the violators turned violent in the process as the Police and local authorities were enforcing the directives.

Chief Inspector of Police (CIP) Bonavanture Twizere Karekezi said that on December 19, as the Police and local leaders were carrying out inspection on COVID-19 prevention compliance in Jenda, Nyirakigugu cell, they found 43 people drinking in the bar owned by Kubwimana.

“At about 11am, Police and the local authorities found 43 people drinking an illicit brew called Umufwe. They were congested, drinking from one pot and sharing straws, meaning if there was direct contact for one infected person he or she could infect everyone who was there,” said CIP Karekezi.

On Sunday, December 20, the spokesperson added, seven other people were caught in the bar owned by Felix Niyoyita located in Kabatezi Cell, Jenda Sector. Niyoyita is among those arrested as he was also serving Umufwe substance, to his clients.

According to CIP Karekezi, some violators and local residents became violent when the Police and local leaders were enforcing the directives at Niyoyita’s bar.

“Residents started pelting stones at Police and local leaders to prevent the arrest of some of their relatives and friends, but the situation was contained and violators were held accountable,” CIP Karekezi said.

He cautioned the public against breaching the national health and safety guidelines against the pandemic and warned those who attempt to obstruct enforcement of the directives.

All the violators were educated on the pandemic and health guidelines.
The bars were closed and owners fined accordingly, while the illicit substances were disposed of.

On Sunday night, the Government of Rwanda announced that it has deployed force protection troops to the Central African Republic, under an existing bilateral agreement on defense. According to a statement released by the Ministry of Defense, the deployment is in response to the targeting of the Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) contingent under the UN Peacekeeping force by rebels supported by François Bozize who was president between 2003 and 2013.

During an interactive session with members of the press yesterday at the occasion of delivering 'State of the Nation Address,’ Kagame said, the country already has forces in CAR for peace keeping mission but the situation is changing due to upcoming elections.

“We have forces serving under UN peacekeeping effort in CAR. The country is in the process of carrying out elections, scheduled on 27th December. This is a good thing since it legitimizes leaders. There have been many armed groups that recently came together and made pacts, some under the former president Bozize leadership, where they invaded the country from the outside. Their aim was to disrupt elections, but we also learned that some of those rebels wanted to attack our forces. All because we have been uncompromised and forceful in ensuring that citizens were well-protected,' he said.

On Saturday 19th December 2020, President Faustin-Archange Touadéra accused former president of the country, François Bozize of planning a coup-plot to dethrone the Government in collaboration with armed rebels. However, the ex-president of the Central African Republic has denied the allegation.

Tensions rose after Mr Bozizé’s candidacy for this week’s national elections was rejected by the country’s highest court. The UN said on Friday it had deployed peacekeeping forces to the country. President Faustin Archange Touadéra has insisted the poll will go ahead, saying the presence of the army and UN peacekeepers means people have nothing to fear.

But opposition parties, including that of Mr Bozizé, have called for the vote to be postponed “until the re-establishment of peace and security”.

President Kagame said, there had been no confrontations to Rwanda’s forces in CAR peacekeeping mission amidst their mandate to protect civilians.

As he explained, the rules of engagement for recently sent forces are forcibly different from other forces’ rules due to being sent under a different mandate.

'In this particular case, we’ve had an agreement with the CAR government, in which the rules of engagement are different. Our additional forces will be able to protect citizens and our existing force already there, without being limited by other rules of engagement [UN],” said Kagame.

The President also underscored that there are police troops protecting civilians camps in CAR that are attacked sometimes. He said that forces sent under different mandate will reinforce security to ensure smooth elections and protect Rwanda’s forces against any attacks.

Rwanda has been a main contributor to United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) since it first deployed in 2014. MINUSCA’s Rwandan contingent is notably in charge of the security of Central African Republic President Faustin-Archange Touadera and the presidential palace.
