#RDC « Lorsque vous épousez aujourd’hui une femme tutsi il faut faire attention »… Une communauté tutsi congolaise « perfide »… Voilà les propos tenus par le porte-parole de l’armée congolaise Sylvain #Ekenge sur la chaîne nationale 😱

Today, October 23, is President Paul Kagame’s birthday. We join his family and all Rwandans to honor this towering political giant on our planet, a leader who made what was seemingly impossible, possible: the reconfiguration of the Rwandan state, the reconstruction of the Rwandan economy and the reconstitution of Rwandan society that had been tone asunder by the most horrific genocide in history. More than that, we honor a leader who pulled a country out of obscurity and oblivion into a shining star on our continent, an example of what good leadership can do for a people. He did this because he stuck to his ideals and tenaciously defended the goals he sought for his country when it would have been much more profitable to compromise them at the alter of political convenience. President Paul Kagame inspires hundreds of millions across our planet because he has defied the odds, because he has held his ground, because he has kept his word, because he has persisted and endured in the pursuit of the Rwandan dream where many would have given up. I have been traveling across Africa and witnessed so many post colonial hopes dashed because leaders, in seeking to hold power and reward friends, abandoned the goal of building the nation and serving its people and where the sacrifices of the many were turned into the benefits of a few. In Rwanda, Kagame said NO. I have watched him, at very close range, lose friends and antagonize allies who stood in the way of developing Rwanda. Today we celebrate this moral clarity and the integrity of his personality. Happy birthday my friend and hero. May you live to be 150 years and thereby defy biology the way you have defied political and military realities. A word to the haters of Kagame. I know you will come here and hurl insults and abuses at me. I forgive you because I know you envy his achievements and are tortured by his greatness. I am sorry I cannot help you out of your misery!

We often see a wealth of well crafted policies and strategic frameworks that, on paper, reflect vision, ambition, and commitment to progress. However, the real challenge lies not in policy formulation, but in implementation. Too often, these documents remain just that documents without translating into real change on the ground. In my view, the critical gap is the alignment between policy priorities and resource allocation. African governments must go beyond promises and begin channeling financial, human, and institutional resources toward the goals they have set. Without this alignment, even the best policies risk becoming symbolic gestures. It’s time for African nations to shift from rhetoric to results. The continent doesn’t lack ideas it needs the political will, accountability, and sustained investment to turn vision into reality. Words must now give way to concrete, measurable action. #AfricaWeWant
