Today, the 8th of October 2015, Rwanda’s Supreme Court, chaired by the Chief Justice, Prof.Sam RUGEGE, ruled in favour of changing the constitution in the case submitted by the Democratic Green Party of Rwanda, vs the Government of Rwanda, regarding the non-lifting of Presidential Term Limits from the Constitution.
According to Article 98 of the Rwandan Constitution, the President of the Republic is the Guardian of the Constitution and guarantor of national unity.
The Democratic Green Party of Rwanda, will therefore, appeal to the President of the Republic to ensure the non-lifting of Presidential Term limits in the constitution.
The Democratic Green Party of Rwanda will also conduct a No Change campaign nationwide, sensitising Rwandans not to vote for the change of the constitution, in case of a national referendum.
The Party will also explore other legal procedures like filing a case in the African Court on Human and Peoples Rights as well as the East African Court of Justice.
Done at Kigali on 8th October 2015

 President, Democratic Green Party of Rwanda

Your “purpose” is the most powerful ingredient to achieve your dreams.

As the new year unfolds, let a new consciousness dawns within you . So in one word tell me what you want 2020 to be like for you? To be better off than who I was in 2019 (financially, morally, spiritually and physically) Are you willing to do what it takes to be better? Nobody wants to have a bad year, everyone wants to have a great year but how many people are ready to do the work? I expect that for everyone who wants to become an authority in a particular field/industry, you should know the top people in that field. "Every front end success has a back end work".-Jimi Tewe There are so many people leading in different industries. How many of you are ready to do what those people did to get to the position they are now? We only see their success, not their work. At the end of the year we are always very excited about the things we want to achieve in the following year, where do all the energy and excitement disappear to when the year begins? Let me ...

In the past few days, I have been taking courses on Conflict Management in the Workplace. We all face conflict whether it be at workplaces or in our homes and believe me, n o team will agree on everything, so disagreements and conflicts are inevitable. As a good student of  Joeel & Natalie Rivera, serial entrepreneurs, authors, speakers, and educators, I wish to share with you some insightful tips of managing your emotions and remaining calm as a way of de escalating a conflict at workplace. Renowned therapist John Gottman says that “Ninety-six percent of conversations that start badly will end badly.” There is truth to this statement. When handling a conflict, whether it is your own or someone else’s, the most important factor is how the conversation begins. And the most important factor for that will be your emotional state. This is why the ability to regulate your emotions and remain calm is so important. Check-In:  The first ste...
