The dictator Kagame at UN
Dictators like Kagame who have changed their national constitutions to remain indefinitely on power should not be involved in UN high level and global activities including chairing UN meetings

Why has the UN ignored its own report about the massacres of Hutu refugees in DRC ?

The UN has ignored its own reports, NGOs and media reports about the massacres of hundreds of thousands of Hutu in DRC Congo (estimated to be more than 400,000) by Kagame when he attacked Hutu refugee camps in Eastern DRC in 1996. This barbaric killings and human rights violations were perpetrated by Kagame’s RPF with the approval of UK and USA and with sympathetic understanding and knowledge of UNHCR and international NGOs which were operating in the refugees camps. According to the UN, NGO and media reports between 1993 and 2003 women and girls were raped. Men slaughtered. Refugees killed with machetes and sticks. The attacks of refugees also prevented humanitarian organisations to help many other refugees and were forced to die from cholera and other diseases. Other refugees who tried to return to Rwanda where killed on their way by RFI and did not reach their homes. No media, no UNHCR, no NGO were there to witness these massacres. When Kagame plans to kill, he makes sure no NGO and no media are prevent. Kagame always kills at night.

PRESIDENT KAGAME'S CRUSADE TO CONFISCATE RWANDA'S MAJOR COMMERCIAL CENTER:
Legal opinion
By: Charles Kambanda
The Union Trade Center (UTC) is Rwanda's largest shopping mall. UTC Ltd. Is the sole owner of UTC mall; Tribert Rujugiro Ayabatwa is UTC Ltd. major shareholder. The mall is valued at $20 million (USD); it is the major commercial center in Rwanda. Tribert Rujugiro Ayabatwa was the major single local funder of the guerrilla war that brought Kagame to power. Tribert Rujugiro Ayabatwa was also the major local investor in Rwanda after the 1994 until he fell out with Kagame.  The Rwanda National Prosecuting Authority on August 19, 2013 ordered a freeze on Rujugiro and his wife's bank accounts, citing an "ongoing criminal investigation."
Kagame does not spare his foes. The General will stop at nothing to punish anybody or group that challenges his grip on power. Kagame's cosmos is divided into two realities; his supporters (friends) who can preserve him in power and "enemies" who must be physically, morally and/or psychologically destroyed. The ruthless General has enacted draconian laws that sustained his child-like cosmos.
Kagame's sinister moves to confiscate the multimillion dollar mall to enrich his private business empire after his major donors have turned off the tap.
Pursuant to Organic Law no. 28/2004 0f 13/12/2004 – the law concerning the Management of Abandoned Property [property without owners] – Kigali City Abandoned Property Management commission ordered UTC L Ltd.  to present the following documents to the commission: (1) UTC Ltd building land title, (2) a list of UTC Ltd shareholders and their respective shares, (3) UTC Ltd loans and/or mortgage agreements/contracts with all UTC Ltd. creditors, (4) loans and/or mortgage payment schedule(s), (5) the details of how UTC Ltd manages its personnel and, (6) details of how UTC Ltd spends its money.
Aside the unconstitutional nature of law no. 28/2004 0f 13/12/2004, by assuming powers over UTC Ltd.'s property, the Kigali City Abandoned Property Management commission erred in law and fact. 
Kigali City abandoned property management commission has no power(s) over issues that touch and concern UTC Ltd. property
A corporation is a legal person. A corporation is resident in the jurisdiction where it is incorporated. A corporation's life-span extends from its incorporation date to dissolution. A corporation has a right to own property; real and personal. Article 2, section 4 of Organic Law no. 28/2004 defines "abandoned property [property without legal owners] as all real and personal property which was previously owned by a person (s) who is/are now unavailable because: (a) the owner(s) died and there is no legatee or heir to inherit that property, (b) the rightful owner is in exile for different reasons, (c) the owner lives in a foreign country for different reasons.
UTC limited corporation is incorporated in Rwanda. UTC Ltd. is a Rwandan tax payer. UTC Ltd. has its management. UTC Ltd. is the sole legal owner of Union Trade Center building located in Kigali city which the Kigali City Abandoned Property Management commission seeks to manage as "abandoned property." UTC Ltd. has never been dissolved (UTC Ltd. Is not unavailable Article 2 of law no. 28/2004). UTC Ltd. resides (still incorporated) in Rwanda; it is not in exile.
Because the UTC Ltd. is incorporated in Rwanda and it is the sole owner of UTC build located in Kigali and the commission is mandated, under Article 11 of law no. 28/2004 of 13/12/2004, to manage "abandoned property", the commission has no power(s) over UTC Ltd property; real or personal.
A corporation is a legal person, distinct and separate from its shareholders and/or Directors
Corporation veil protects a corporation from being affected by omission and/or acts of its shareholders. Corporate veil might be pierced through a civil court process when (i) the shareholders use the corporation to defraud its creditors, (ii) the shareholders and/or Directors use the corporation to engage in illegal acts, and (iii) the corporation has no independent mind, existence and will. Where a criminal issue is involved, the 2003 Rwandan constitution, Article 17, as amended to date, provides that "Criminal liability is personal". There is no criminal liability by association.
UTC Ltd. is incorporated; it is responsible for its own liabilities and assets. UTC Ltd. is NOT a personal property of its shareholders and/or Directors; UTC Ltd. is not "res".  Assuming that the "abandoned property" management commission had powers over UTC Ltd. building, because the commission is not a civil court, the commission can't pierce UTC Ltd. corporate veil because piecing corporate veil is a prerogative of courts of law.  In addition, suppose that the commission had powers over UTC Ltd. property, and the commission was investigating a criminal issue, the 2003 Rwandan constitution obligates the State not to hold UTC Ltd. liable for its shareholders' criminal acts, if any, because criminal liability is personal.
All the documents Kigali City Abandoned Property Management commission ordered UTC Ltd to produce for the commission's review pose very serious rational public policy and constitutional issues
The State has a registrar of companies and land title registry
Conclusive evidence of incorporation is the State's registry of companies.  Likewise, the only proof that a land title is recorded is the State's land title record. The founding document for any corporation is the certificate of incorporation/articles of incorporation. This document bears all details about shareholders and shares. A certificate of incorporation is the only contract between a corporation and the State. At incorporation, the State retained UTC Ltd. certificate of incorporation.  For which reasons should the State ask a citizen to produce a document which is in the State's custody? In the same way, the State should not be asking UTC Ltd to produce its land title because the State has UTC Ltd land title(s) in the office of the registrar of land titles.
If UTC Lt is suspected of forging the certificate of incorporation and/or its land titles, there are relevant criminal laws and procedures for the State to follow. However, in all criminal cases, the State must prove each element of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.  The 2003 Rwandan constitution Article 19 provides that "Every person accused of a crime shall be presumed innocent until his or her guilt has been conclusively proved …" The State cannot ask the accused to produce evidence for the accused to prove his innocence.
The State has no rational basis to inquire into the details of a private individual's loans and/or mortgage agreements with private creditors.
Acquisition of property is embedded in the right to own property. UTC Ltd.'s loans and/or mortgage agreements with creditors, if any, are private agreements which the State cannot manage.  Except where the State is a party or the State is a third party beneficiary and the State third party beneficiary rights have attached, the State has no interest in those private agreements; the State cannot initiate any investigation into such contracts. Under the 2003 Rwandan Constitution Article 17, "nobody can be imprisoned for liabilities arising from commercial contracts". Accordingly, the State cannot investigate commercial contract parties' obligations and duties. Interpretation of, and disputes about, commercial contracts are litigated in civil courts. Where a criminal issue arises, the party complaining to the State has to produce the underlying agreement. Likewise, the State cannot investigate loans/mortgage payment schedules between individuals. Where a debtor defaults on loan and/or mortgage payment, the contract/agreement itself, contracts law and other relevant civil laws determine the course of action, including foreclosure.
UTC Ltd. might have loans and/or mortgage agreements with creditor(s).  UTC Ltd. does not owe money to the state in form of loans and/or mortgage. The State is not a third party beneficiary of any commercial agreement between UTC Ltd. and any creditor. There is no legal basis for the State to review loans and/or mortgage agreements between UTC Ltd and its creditor(s), if any. Consequently, Kigali City Abandoned Property Management commission has no legal basis to compel UTC Ltd. to present its loans and/or mortgage agreements and payment schedules for the commission to review.
If any UTC Ltd. creditor has filed a criminal case complaint with the police/prosecutor and government is involved in criminal investigations against UTC Ltd., the party complaining must produce the underlying agreement/contract to police/prosecutor. If UTC Ltd. was a criminal suspect, government would be barred from asking UTC Ltd. to collect evidence for its prosecution.
The State's order that UTC Ltd. submits a statement on its personnel management style is inconsistent with contemporary private business human resources management practices and theories
Human resources management style for private corporations, like UTC Ltd., is an internal organizational issue except if any criminal issue is involved.  UTC Ltd. is not involved in a business joint venture with the State. UTC Ltd. is not a government agent.  UTC Ltd.'s internal issues are not in any way State actions. UTC Ltd. Has not offered to hire the State as its human resources management consultant.  For which reason should UTC Ltd. explain to the State how it manages its workers? Did the State acquire UTC Ltd.?  If UTC Ltd. human resources management was in anyway criminal, asking UTC Ltd. to provide such statements would tantamount to asking the UTC Ltd. to incriminate itself, contrary to the 2003 Rwandan constitution.
The State's order that UTC Ltd. presents to the commission a detailed explanation of how UTC Ltd. spends its money is utterly unconstitutional and an unprecedented threat to private investment in Rwanda
A corporation is a legal person. UTC Ltd., like its shareholders, has a right to own property; real and personal. Disposal of property is embedded in the right to own property. Article 29 of the 2003 Constitution of Rwanda provides that "Every person has a right to private property, whether personal or owned in association with others …" Article 200 of the 2003 Rwandan Constitution provides that "The Constitution is the supreme law of the State. Any law which is contrary to this Constitution is null and void".
UTC Ltd. and its shareholders are at liberty to dispose of their personal and real property. If UTC Ltd. or its shareholders are under criminal investigations, requiring UTC Ltd. or its shareholders for a statement of how they spend their private property is flagrant violation of their constitutional right to own property. Whatever the powers and/or the source of such powers behind this insane demand by the State, to the extent the demand violates UTC Ltd.'s constitutional right to own property, the State demand is null and void under Article 200 of the 2003 Rwandan constitution as amended to date.
Conclusion
of On its face,  the Kigali City Abandoned Property Management your commission has no powers over UTC Ltd. property because UTC Lt resides in Rwanda and has never been dissolved, consequently, UTC Lt. has never 'abandoned' its property as provided for by Rwanda's Organic Law no. 28/2004 of 03/12/2004.  All the documents Kigali City Abandoned Property Management ordered UTC Lt. to produce pose very critical rational public policy and constitutional issues; UTC Ltd.is not obligated to present any such documents because doing so will be facilitating the commission in its methodical move to violate the 2003 Rwanda Constitutions which each citizen is under legal duty to protect. General Kagame's rule by the law as opposed to rule of law will be his unfortunate "legacy". The General's disastrous determination to undermine Rwanda's public institutions' independence for his own personal interests is unparalleled.  However, confiscating citizens' property has undesirable consequences for the political, social and economic future of the nation. On top of entrenching endless conflicts among Rwandans, the owners of such confiscated property will have to be compensated for all economic and non-economic losses occasioned by Kagame's illegal decisions. Does Kagame care about Rwanda as a nation?

-“The enemies of Freedom do not argue ; they shout and they shoot.”

The principal key root causes that lead to the Rwandan genocide of 1994 that affected all Rwandan ethnic groups were:

1)The majority Hutu community’s fear of the return of the discriminatory monarchy system that was practiced by the minority Tutsi community against the enslaved majority Hutu community for about 500 years

2)The Hutu community’s fear of Kagame’s guerrilla that committed massacres in the North of the country and other parts of the countries including assassinations of Rwandan politicians.

3) The Rwandan people felt abandoned by the international community ( who was believed to support Kagame’s guerrilla) and then decided to defend themselves with whatever means they had against the advance of Kagame’ guerrilla supported by Ugandan, Tanzanian and Ethiopian armies and other Western powers.

-“The enemies of Freedom do not argue ; they shout and they shoot.”

-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”

-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”

-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.”

The Rwanda war of 1990-1994 had multiple dimensions.

The Rwanda war of 1990-1994 had multiple dimensions. Among Kagame’s rebels who were fighting against the Rwandan government, there were foreigners, mainly Ugandan fighters who were hired to kill and rape innocent Rwandan people in Rwanda and refugees in DRC.

SUMMARY : THE TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES OF THE BRITISH BUDGET SUPPORT AND GEO-STRATEGIC AMBITIONS

United Kingdom's Proxy Wars in Africa: The Case of Rwanda and DR Congo:

The Rwandan genocide and 6,000,000 Congolese and Hutu refugees killed are the culminating point of a long UK’s battle to expand their influence to the African Great Lakes Region. UK supported Kagame’s guerrilla war by providing military support and money. The UK refused to intervene in Rwanda during the genocide to allow Kagame to take power by military means that triggered the genocide. Kagame’s fighters and their families were on the Ugandan payroll paid by UK budget support.


· 4 Heads of State assassinated in the francophone African Great Lakes Region.
· 2,000,000 people died in Hutu and Tutsi genocides in Rwanda, Burundi and RD.Congo.
· 600,000 Hutu refugees killed in R.D.Congo, Uganda, Central African Republic and Rep of Congo.
· 6,000,000 Congolese dead.
· 8,000,000 internal displaced people in Rwanda, Burundi and DR. Congo.
· 500,000 permanent Rwandan and Burundian Hutu refugees, and Congolese refugees around the world.
· English language expansion to Rwanda to replace the French language.
· 20,000 Kagame’s fighters paid salaries from the British Budget Support from 1986 to present.
· £500,000 of British taxpayer’s money paid, so far, to Kagame and his cronies through the budget support, SWAPs, Tutsi-dominated parliament, consultancy, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs.
· Kagame has paid back the British aid received to invade Rwanda and to strengthen his political power by joining the East African Community together with Burundi, joining the Commonwealth, imposing the English Language to Rwandans to replace the French language; helping the British to establish businesses and to access to jobs in Rwanda, and to exploit minerals in D.R.Congo.


Thousands of Hutu murdered by Kagame inside Rwanda, e.g. Kibeho massacres

Thousands of Hutu murdered by Kagame inside Rwanda, e.g. Kibeho massacres
Kagame killed 200,000 Hutus from all regions of the country, the elderly and children who were left by their relatives, the disabled were burned alive. Other thousands of people were killed in several camps of displaced persons including Kibeho camp. All these war crimes remain unpunished.The British news reporters were accompanying Kagame’s fighters on day-by-day basis and witnessed these massacres, but they never reported on this.

The British irrational, extremist, partisan,biased, one-sided media and politicians have disregarded Kagame war crimes e.g. the Kibeho camp massacres, massacres of innocents Hutu refugees in DR. Congo. The British media have been supporting Kagame since he invaded Rwanda by organising the propaganda against the French over the Rwandan genocide, suppressing the truth about the genocide and promoting the impunity of Kagame and his cronies in the African Great Lakes Region. For the British, Rwanda does not need democracy, Rwanda is the African Israel; and Kagame and his guerilla fighters are heroes.The extremist British news reporters including Fergal Keane, Chris Simpson, Chris McGreal, Mark Doyle, etc. continue to hate the Hutus communities and to polarise the Rwandan society.

Kagame political ambitions triggered the genocide.

Kagame political ambitions triggered the genocide.
Kagame’s guerrilla war was aimed at accessing to power at any cost. He rejected all attempts and advice that could stop his military adventures including the cease-fire, political negotiations and cohabitation, and UN peacekeeping interventions. He ignored all warnings that could have helped him to manage the war without tragic consequences. Either you supported Kagame’ s wars and you are now his friend, or you were against his wars and you are his enemy. Therefore, Kagame as the Rwandan strong man now, you have to apologise to him for having been against his war and condemned his war crimes, or accept to be labelled as having been involved in the genocide. All key Kagame’s fighters who committed war crimes and crimes against humanity are the ones who hold key positions in Rwandan army and government for the last 15 years. They continue to be supported and advised by the British including Tony Blair, Andrew Mitchell MP, and the British army senior officials.

Aid that kills: The British Budget Support financed Museveni and Kagame’s wars in Rwanda and DRC.

Aid that kills: The British Budget Support financed Museveni and Kagame’s wars in Rwanda and DRC.
Genocide propaganda and fabrications are used by the so-called British scholars, news reporters and investigative journalists to promote their CVs and to get income out of the genocide through the selling of their books, providing testimonies against the French, access to consultancy contracts from the UN and Kagame, and participation in conferences and lectures in Rwanda, UK and internationally about genocide. Genocide propaganda has become a lucrative business for Kagame and the British. Anyone who condemned or did not support Kagame’s war is now in jail in Rwanda under the gacaca courts system suuported by British tax payer's money, or his/she is on arrest warrant if he/she managed to flee the Kagame’s regime. Others have fled the country and are still fleeing now. Many others Rwandans are being persecuted in their own country. Kagame is waiting indefinitely for the apologies from other players who warn him or who wanted to help to ensure that political negotiations take place between Kagame and the former government he was fighting against. Britain continues to supply foreign aid to Kagame and his cronies with media reports highlighting economic successes of Rwanda. Such reports are flawed and are aimed at misleading the British public to justify the use of British taxpayers’ money. Kagame and his cronies continue to milk British taxpayers’ money under the British budget support. This started from 1986 through the British budget support to Uganda until now.

Dictator Kagame: No remorse for his unwise actions and ambitions that led to the Rwandan genocide.

Dictator Kagame: No remorse for his unwise actions and ambitions that led to the Rwandan genocide.
No apologies yet to the Rwandan people. The assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana by Kagame was the only gateway for Kagame to access power in Rwanda. The British media, politicians, and the so-called British scholars took the role of obstructing the search for the truth and justice; and of denying this assassination on behalf of General Kagame. General Paul Kagame has been obliging the whole world to apologise for his mistakes and war crimes. The UK’s way to apologise has been pumping massive aid into Rwanda's crony government and parliement; and supporting Kagame though media campaigns.

Fanatical, partisan, suspicious, childish and fawning relations between UK and Kagame

Fanatical, partisan, suspicious, childish and fawning relations between UK and Kagame
Kagame receives the British massive aid through the budget support, British excessive consultancy, sector wide programmes, the Tutsi-dominated parliament, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs; for political, economic and English language expansion to Rwanda. The British aid to Rwanda is not for all Rwandans. It is for Kagame himself and his Tutsi cronies.

This blog reports the crimes that remain unpunished and the impunity that has generated a continuous cycle of massacres in many parts of Africa. In many cases, the perpetrators of the crimes seem to have acted in the knowledge that they would not be held to account for their actions.

The need to fight this impunity has become even clearer with the massacres and genocide in many parts of Africa and beyond.

The blog also addresses issues such as Rwanda War Crimes, Rwandan Refugee massacres in Dr Congo, genocide, African leaders’ war crimes and crimes against humanity, Africa war criminals, Africa crimes against humanity, Africa Justice.

-The British relentless and long running battle to become the sole player and gain new grounds of influence in the francophone African Great Lakes Region has led to the expulsion of other traditional players from the region, or strained diplomatic relations between the countries of the region and their traditional friends. These new tensions are even encouraged by the British using a variety of political and economic manoeuvres.

-General Kagame has been echoing the British advice that Rwanda does not need any loan or aid from Rwandan traditional development partners, meaning that British aid is enough to solve all Rwandan problems.

-The British obsession for the English Language expansion has become a tyranny that has led to genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, dictatorial regimes, human rights violations, mass killings, destruction of families, communities and cultures, permanent refugees and displaced persons in the African Great Lakes region.

- Rwanda, a country that is run by a corrupt clique of minority-tutsi is governed with institutional discrmination, human rights violations, dictatorship, authoritarianism and autocracy, as everybody would expect.
