By Dr. Joseph Ogundu

Rwanda’s journey from the ashes of civil war to a thriving, unified nation is nothing short of remarkable. When the brutal conflict ended, the country’s leaders made a conscious decision to abandon ethnic identities and embrace national consciousness. They prioritized unity and cohesion, ensuring that ethnic differences took a back seat to the greater goal of building a progressive, harmonious nation.
