« Nous prévoyons agrandir les activités et l’entreprise elle-même », a-t-il confié à la presse, très sûr d’avoir les capitaux nécessaires pour cela.

Il est rapporté que cette entreprise Nula Smelter est très bien cotée au point qu’elle risque d’être une référence pour tous les pays de la région.

Les autorités minières rwandaises continuent d’attirer les capitaux étrangers pour venir profiter des opportunités minières rwandaises. Ces autorités espèrent exploiter à fond le sous sol rwandais pour qu’à l’échéance2020, le Rwanda puisse faire des recettes de 800 millions de dollars et 1.5 milliards de dollars en 2024.

Les mêmes autorités annoncent également le démarrage des travaux de construction d’un autre lot de 397 autres pour les habitants de ce district qui habitent sur des sites jugés à risque.

Ce 7 septembre, cinq habitations dûment finies ont été remises à leurs bénéficiaires au cours d’une cérémonie officielle. Ces habitations auront coûté chacune 3 millions de francs, soit environ 3.400 USD. Elles ont été construites par une ONG dénommée SACCA intervenant dans la récupération-resocialisation des enfants de la rue.

Je ne sais pas comment remercier mnos dirigeants qui ont pensé à ce geste », s’est éclatée devant la caméra d’IGIHE, Numukobwa, 46 ans, du Secteur Nyamirama, qui venait de bénéficier de cette habitation nouvelle avant d’ajouter décidée : « Dorénavant, je vais tout faire pour lutter contre ma pauvreté ». Ah ! Ce n’est pas très tôt.
Mais pourquoi ne l’as-tu pas fait avant ?

Pour Léocadie Mukambuguje, 65 ans, du Secteur Mukarange, une autre bénéficiaire de cette habitation moderne qui vivait en location, « avec ce généreux don, je vais travailler d’arrache-pied pour me prendre économiquement en charge. Je suis sûre que j’arriverai à passer le cap du seuil de la pauvreté ».

The suspects include one Onesphore Kamana, 45, who was caught with 15 tonnes of Cassiterite and Coltan minerals.

Others are Joseph Nshimiyimana, 37, who was found with 300kgs of cassiterite and coltan and Justin Habumuremyi, 46, found with 31.5kgs.

Other four suspects were at the time conducting illegal mining activities.

They are identified as Jean Bosco Hagenimana, 25, Theoneste Gafaranga, 25, Samuel Iyakaremye, 28, and Theoneste Gafaranga, 48.

The information on these people’s illegal mineral business was shared by community policing partners, according to Chief Inspector of Police (CIP) Aloys Bugingo, the District Police Commander (DPC) of Kamonyi.

“These people fall in two groups; those who engage in mining and those who buy the minerals from them. There is a group of illegal miners that calls itself Abahebyi, which in most cases operates at night, and these strengthened operations are meant to break these chains,” the DPC said.

He also issued fresh warning to the people involved in these illegal businesses that is not only dangerous to individuals, but also destroys the environment.

“They must know that their business is illegal and punishable by the law. Sometimes, these illegal mining activities have resulted into fatal accidents. Most of them do it at night, without even protecting themselves.”

Similar operations conducted last week also saw the arrest of six illegal mineral dealers.

Article 54 of the law on mining and quarry operations, states that any person who undertakes mineral or quarry exploration, exploitation, processing or trading without a licence commits an offence.

Upon conviction, the offender is liable to imprisonment for a term of between two and six months and a fine of not less than Rwf1 million and not more than Rwf5 million or only one of these penalties.

The court also orders confiscation of any seized minerals or quarry in storage, trading or processing without a licence.

The awareness also involves mass testing of vehicle emissions. It is conducted in line with the ‘International Air Quality Day’ held every September 7, to educate the public on air pollution and control measures.

The Clean Air Day brings together communities, businesses, education, and the health sector to improve public understanding of air pollution, both indoors and outdoors; build awareness of how air pollution affects human health, and to explain some of the easy things that can be done to tackle air pollution towards environmental protection.

The campaign was held across highways connecting the City of Kigali to other parts of the country as Police officers from Motor-vehicle Inspection Centre (MIC) engaged in testing automobiles’ fume emissions.

Air pollution is the single greatest environmental risk to human health and one of the main avoidable causes of death and disease globally, according to the UN.

Transportation is considered the largest single source of air pollution globally leading to climate change.

Pollution in the air is now the fourth-highest cause of death worldwide, trailing smoking, high blood pressure, and diet-related diseases. The majority of these deaths are recorded in poorer countries.

It is estimated that more than 90 percent of people globally breathe polluted air and approximately seven million people die from air pollution-related causes every year.

According to Modeste Mugabo, Air Quality Monitoring Sector Specialist in REMA, Rwanda lies in the safer zone of the Air Quality Index.

“Rwanda falls under the moderate stage of the Air Quality Index, and the awareness, as well as testing fuel emissions, are part of the implementation of the national policy to ensure the air is clean and to prevent related diseases,” Mugabo said.

The key greenhouse gases associated with road transport are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O).

Medical experts say that pollutants cause aggravated respiratory diseases such as emphysema, bronchitis, asthma lung damage, heart diseases, and reduced resistance to infections.

“Motorists drive through roads with no idea of the ill-effects of their exhaust fumes on the environment and people’s health, and this awareness is designed to influence especially motorists’ understanding on the problem control measures,” Mugabo said.
Today, Rwanda has nine Air Quality monitoring stations and one reference station.
The UN observes that in the absence of aggressive intervention, the number of premature deaths resulting from ambient air pollution is estimated to be on track to increase by more than 50 percent by 2050.

Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) Bernardin Nsengiyumva, the Deputy Commanding Officer of Motor-vehicle Inspection Centre (MIC), said that fuel emission is one of the tests conducted at MIC.

“The MIC services also include testing emissions to supplement national efforts in implementing the policy on the environment, and fighting air pollution in particular.
For a vehicle to be certified as roadworthy, it also has to pass the emission test at MIC,” CSP Nsengiyumva said.

Currently, MIC operates four testing lanes and a mobile lane, all with the capacity of inspecting more than 500 vehicles per day.

According to CSP Nsengiyumva, about 20 percent of inspected vehicles emit gas.
MIC also acquired mobile emission testing devices used on highways.

CSP Nsengiyumva said that with the mobile testers, any vehicle found emitting gas, even if its mechanical inspection is still valid, has to be fixed before it’s allowed on the road again.

Perezida w’u Rwanda Paul Kagame yavuze ko leta itayobewe akamaro k’imikino n’imyadagaduro ariko na none igihe Isi irimo bisaba abantu kugira byinshi bigomwa bitewe na COVID-19 cyane koyica.

Both damaged facilities were recently closed as part of the measures of COVID-19 prevention and were yet to be opened at the time of fire outbreak. The motel offers bar, restaurant and lodging services while the city valley market trades in fruits and vegetables.

Faustin Kashugera, the proprietor of City Valley Motel said a big part of the facilities was damaged.

“We are yet to know the causes of the fire outbreak but we saw it coming from the other side of the market. There were no goods in that market,” he said.

“There were so much property damaged by fire in my motel and I don’t know the total value at the moment since we have not yet carried out inventory of the damages,” he said.

The Fire Brigade was at the scene immediately to extinguish the fire. The cause of the fire has not yet been established.
