        But this formula of dissent in rwandan politics had failed not only on victoire ingabire but even others .you don't use orthodox means to fight unorthodox ways..if he's being ruthless why all the niceness from the dissenters? @Clemmie007

        Yeah. CEO Paul sometimes act in a way it of normal which does nothing but ruins his moral authority. Seizing assets ain't a good act.

        why BBC always wrote one side story? their assets are being auctioned because of tax evasions of 6 Billions Rwandan Francs not something else!

        Easy.. recently Spain ordered Ronaldo to pay millions $ for tax evasion and it’s okay.. but for Rwanda doing the same .you’re calling it politically motivanted.. so what can we call this.even them (Rwigaras) in the court are always asking more time to pay.. not denying the case.

        Is Ronaldo in prison for that? No he is not, even as they auction her properties they can still set her free, no harm in that unless there is another reason for keeping her in jail

        Who told you that Diane is in prison because of tax evasion? she is there because of forgery and conspiring to incite insurrection.

        Above from what you intend to believe, there is always reality in the case, so it’s up to you to associate that reality to your beliefs other than staying in Virtual reality beliefs🙏🏽
