Rwanda Elections 2024 LIVE: Paul Kagame Sworn In For The Fourth Term as Rwanda's President

Rwanda's President Paul Kagame will be sworn in after being re-elected with 99.18% of the vote in July, extending his near quarter-century in office. The two men standing against him - Frank Habineza from the Democratic Green Party and independent Philippe Mpayimana - both conceded defeat in the 2024 elections, which rights groups say was marred by a crack-down on journalists, the opposition and civil society groups. A government spokesperson repeatedly rejected such criticism during the election period. Kagame, who got more than 93% of the vote in the last three elections, has won praise from Western and regional leaders for helping to end the 1994 genocide in Rwanda and rebuilding the country into an attractive destination for investment and aid.

Its only in Kenya that the inauguration ceremony of any President is beautifully laid out

[robertgafungiza]

Although other western TVs are unable to broadcast African events,  they do air them when something goes wrong,  so thank you for broadcasting this vibrant inauguration.
