When you're the former president in an African country but didn't kill innocent people, didn't grab land or steal elections or imprisoned opponents or change the constitution in your favour, this is how peacefully you live in retirement. This is Jakaya Kikwete of Tanzania 🤝🙏🏽👆🏽

As I am in my final days with the BBC World Service, where I served as the editor of The Great Lakes Service, one of the bloodiest regions in Africa, for 17 years, I am delighted that in 2015 I was named as one of the 10 role model journalists in Africa.

March 23rd was my last day working with the BBC Great Lakes Service. I would like to thank the team I have worked with in the coverage of one of the turbulent and bloodiest regions in the world. They deserve to be honoured as unsung heroes.

For your information, Mr. Cleverly, Rwanda is rather the 5th most densely populated in the world, the most densely populated in mainland Africa, 4th smallest country in mainland Africa.

RIP Ali Hassan Mwinyi. He will be remembered for his efforts in getting a solution for the Rwandan crisis and the Great Lakes region. Sadly, his ideas were ignored by hard-headed tribalistic leaders. In the picture, he was in Kigali when I worked for Radio Rwanda.

It is a year since I quit the BBC, where my last post was editor of the Great Lakes Service. My expectation of tranquillity in my retirement has proved otherwise. Pro gov social media portrays me as an anti Rwanda, genocide denier and supporting genocide perpetrators.

@michelawrong Twagiramungu will be remembered for his role in the struggle for democracy. He became a refugee after refusing to be a puppet prime minister in the so-called gvt of national unity led by the RPF. About 40 members of his family were killed in the genocide despite being Hutu.

@AbroadTanzania Unazidi kujidhalilisha kwa kusambaza hoja potofu na kijinga. Nadhani una nongwa na uislamu. Mapigano ya Hamas yanatokana na itikadi za kizayuni za kunyang'anya wapalestina ardhi yao. Sio uislamu. What's wrong with you.

I think you are confusing Mai Mai with Wazalendo. Mai Mai rebel groups were formed to protect their respective tribes and have now joined into Wazalendo to fight their common enemy: M23. It is an open secret that some of the Mai Mai groups were the proxies of Rwanda.

@NkubitoNicholas Wazalendo is a Swahili word meaning patriot, not native. In singular is Mzalendo in plural is Wazalendo. It is commonly used in Swahili speaking countries

The root cause of the indignation is the weekly flagship interactive prog Imvo n'imvano "heart of the matter," I hosted. It became synonymous with my name. Imvo n'imvano crossed the redline by giving voice to the critics of the secretive gov, which feared debates.
