The 'Kagame generation': Many young Rwandans support president, but others seek change
Manage episode 426088176 series 2426270
Rwandans are expected to re-elect Paul Kagame to a fourth term in next month's presidential election. Having guided the country since he put an end to the genocide of the Tutsis in 1994, the president presents himself as a father figure, guaranteeing stability and prosperity for millions of citizens. For the past 24 years, he has been re-elected with no less than 93 percent of the vote. Most Rwandans under the age of 30 have only known Kagame as head of state. But many observers describe his regime, in which only one opposition party is tolerated, as authoritarian. Although the overwhelming majority of young people fully back the presidential party, some are looking for change. Our reporters went to meet the "Kagame generation".
