Muri iyi minsi, hari abanyarwanda banyuranye babajije ibibazo byinshi bijyanye n'umurongo w'ubunyarwanda, ishyaka Banyarwanda risangiye na MRP Abasangizi, n'abandi bantu.

Nk'uko amateka y'uyu murongo azwi guhera kera, uyu murongo w'ubunyarwanda watangiranye n'ishingwa ry'ishyaka Banyarwanda. Mubihe byakurikiye, Ishyaka MRP Abasangizi naryo ryabonye ko uwo  umurongo  ari mwiza, hanyuma mu ishinga ryaryo ryiyemeza kuba ariwo ryerekeramo  ndetse rishyira imbere n'ibindi byinshi biwuranga.
 
Kubera ko uyu murongo ugenda ukura, na none muminsi ishize, murwego rwa politiki,  Nyakubahwa Pasteur Docteur General Mupenzi Jean de la Paix nawe yatangaje ko ahisemo uwo murongo wa politiki y'ubunyarwanda butavangura akaba ariwo azajya abarizwamo mubireba ibya politiki.
 
Muri iyi minsi hari n'andi mashyaka n'abantu kugiti cyabo bari muri gahunda yo gusanga uwo murongo wa politiki ishingiye kubunyarwanda butavangura.  
 
Kubijyanye rero n'imiterere y'uwo murongo wa politiki, abawurimo ni abantu kugiti cyabo cyangwa amashyaka yumva yiyemeje gukora politiki babarirwa muri uwo murongo. Kuwujyamo ntabwo bisaba amasezerano kuko abawurimo bakomeza kugira ubwigenge basanganywe haba mumiterere y'amashyaka yabo cyangwa mumikorere yabo. Uyu murongo kandi wemera buri muntu icyo yaba aricyo cyose cyangwa icyo yaba akora cyose. Waba uwihaye imana cyangwa umusirikare cyangwa se ukaba umuntu ukora imirimo igutunze ntabwo uhejwe. Ishingiro ry'uyu murongo ni ukutavangura abanyarwanda.  Abagize uwo murongo, ibyo umwe akoze mumirimo ye bwite mubyo ishyaka rye ryiyemeje  ntabwo bibarwa kubandi. Buri wese ni responsable w'ibikorwa by'ishyaka rye cyangwa ibyo akora kugiti cye.
 
Icyo umurongo umariye abawurimo n'uko n'ubwo buri wese afite ibyo akora, ariko usanga hari ikintu basangiye cy'ubunyarwanda butagira uwo burenganya kandi bose bakaba bagamije kubaka u Rwanda rwa bose rutagira uwo ruheza. ibyo kandi byiyongeraho ko kuba bameze nk'abana bavuka mumuryango  umwe w'ubunyarwanda, n'ubwo amashyaka yabo afite ibyo atandukanyeho, ariko  bituma bamwe bashobora no kugirana ibiganiro nk'abanyarwanda  kuburyo bworoshye bagamije kureba icyafasha abanyarwanda bose.
Ikindi nuko abagize uyu murongo baba bafite inshingano zo kuwuteza imbere mubiwuranga.
By'umwihariko ishyaka Banyarwanda ni ishyaka rikomeje gushyira imbere inzira y'amahoro mugukemura ibibazo by'igihugu ariko rikaba rifite uburyo bwaryo bwihariye ribona ikibazo cyo kurinda amahoro kigomba gukemurwa.  Kubireba na none Ishyaka MRP Abasangizi naryo rifite uburyo bwaryo bwihariye ribona ikibazo cy'umutekano cyakemuka. Iyo mibonere y'ibibazo itandukanye hagati y'amashyaka yombi, tubona ko ari ubukungu umurongo wa politiki y'ubunyarwanda ufite kandi byubahiriza n'amahame ya demokarasi.

ITANGAZO CFCR No 03/14 RIGENEWE ABANYAMAKURU, ABANYARWANDA N'AMAHANGA.
FDLR N'IMIRYANGO YABO N'IZINDI MPUNZI Z'ABANYARWANDA ZIRI MURI CONGO NTABWO ARI CYO KIBAZO U RWANDA RUFITE
          Umutwe w'ingabo Coalition Forces for Change in Rwanda/Coalition des Forces du Changement au Rwanda, CFCR-IMVEJURU, nkuko twabishyize ahagaragara mw'itangazo ryacu rya mbere ryo ku ya 17/01/2014, ntushobora  guceceka akarengane gakorerwa abanyarwanda abo ari bo bose, bityo tukaba twiyemeje gutangaza ibi bikurikira ku kibazo cya FDLR, imiryango yabo, n'izindi mpunzi z'abanyarwanda ziri kumwe nabo muri Repubulika Iharanira Demokarasi ya Congo.
1.     IKIBAZO KIREMEREYE U RWANDA N'AKARERE K'IBIYAGA BIGARI
          Umutwe w'ingabo CFCR-IMVEJURU urabwira abanyarwanda n'amahanga yose ko ikibazo kiremereye u Rwanda n'abanyarwanda ndetse n'akarere k'ibiyaga bigari bya Afurika atari FDLR n'imiryango yabo n'izindi mpunzi z'abanyarwanda ziri kumwe nabo muri Congo nk'uko bamwe bagwa mumutego wa FPR babyibeshyaho. Aha turashaka kwibutse abahagarariye imiryango mpuzamahanga mu karere n'abandi bose bireba ko ikibazo kijegeje u Rwanda n'akarere ari ubutegetsi bubi bwa Perezida Kagame na FPR ye bushingiye kw'ivangurabwoko, itotezabwoko bw'abahutu, igitugu,  akarengane, urugomo, ubushotoranyi ku bihugu by'amahanga no guteza yo intambara nkuko byagenze muri Congo kuva mu 1996 kugeza ubu, kunyereza umutungu w'igihugu,  no kwica abantu.
2.     CFCR-IMVEJURU IRAHAMAGARIRA ABANYARWANDA BOSE N'AMAHANGA KUGIRA UBUMUNTU
Banyarwanda mwese namwe banyamahanga, nimureke kuba inkundarubyino. Nimusigeho guhamagarira, gushishikariza no kwishimira imfu z'abandi muvuga hirya no hino mu maradio n'ibinyamakuru no ku mbuga, iby'ingabo za l'ONU kugaba ibitero kuri FDLR n'imiryango yabo n'impunzi zindi z'abanyarwanda ziri kumwe nabo mumeze nk'abogeza umupira. Ni mureke kuba ba ntampuhwe.
Niba mugifite akantu k'ubumuntu, ni igihe. Ese ubwo mujya mwishyira mu mwanya w'abo bantu ko bakeneye kubaho nkamwe iyo mwirirwa muhamagarira ingabo za l'ONU n'iza leta ya Congo kubasukaho urusasu. Bariya bantu aho mwibuka ko baheze muri Congo kuko batabashije nkatwe kuhava nabo ngo bajye i Nairobi ubundi bave  Nairobi berekeza Afrika y'Epfo, Uburayi, Amerika, Canada, Austraria n'ahandi mutuye ubu bakaba barabahaye ubuhungiro! Abenshi muribo ni inzirakarengane zarokotse Genocide Hutu yakozwe na FPR/APR Inkotanyi muri Congo kuva mu mwaka 1996, nk'uko ikiswe Mapping Report kibigaragaza. Aha tukaba twibutsa amahanga na ONU ko gukomeza kubika iyi Mapping report mu kabati amaherezo uru Rwego rukuriye izindi kw'isi ruzafatwa nk'urwananiwe gutanga ubutabera kuri izi nzirakarengane zaheze mu mashyamba ya Congo mu bintu zidafitemo uruhare habe na ruke ariko ingaruka zabyo akaba ari bo zigwaho, akaba ari bo babigwamo(des victimes/victims).
           Kubona leta y'u Rwanda yitwa ngo ni leta y'abanyarwanda, ivuga ko iyobora igihugu mw'izina ryabo ariko ikirirwa ishishikariza ingabo za l'ONU na Brigade d'intervention kujya kwica abandi banyarwanda bayihungiye mu burasira zuba bwa Congo aho kwicara hamwe ngo itange inda ya bukuru ikemura ibibazo byateye kandi na n'ubu bigitera ubuhunzi mu Rwanda nyuma y'imyaka imaze kurenga makumyabiri iyo leta imaze ku butegetsi. Iriya ni leta ki se! Nta leta irimo. Ibibi byose ikorera abanyarwanda ubutitsa, haba mu Rwanda haba no mu mahanga nk'aha muri Congo, byerekena neza neza ko ari leta yasuruye (corrupt and bankrupt), yananiwe kuyobora igihugu mu nyungu z'abanyarwanda bose bityo ikaba yari ikwiye kwibwiriza ubwayo ikikuraho mbere y'uko abanyarwanda tuyikuraho. Aya mahanga ari guhamagarira impunzi gutaha mu Rwanda yabanje gukora ubugenzuzi akamenya neza abatahutse bose aho bagiye ? Ubu se abapfuye bishwe n'abo Kagame ari gukurikira aho bahungiye akabica, aya mahanga yabikozeho iki ?
Aha turatanga ingero ibyiri gusa kandi kubyo tuzi neza :
a)     Raporo ikorwa ku barwanyi bahoze mu mutwe wa FLDR bamaze gutahuka mu Rwanda ivuga ko bagera kubihumbi cumi na kimwe (11000) , ariko mu byukuri, ayo mahanga azakore igenzura arebe niba ashobora kubona kimwe cya kabili (1/2) cy'abo bantu baba bakiriho mu Rwanda. Abatarishwe bari kuborera mu magereza bazira gusa ko ari abahutu.
b)    UNCHR izasobanurire amahanga aho abantu 108 yatahukanye mu 1997 ibakuye muri Gabon, bakicirwa ahitwaga Camp Kigali hakarokoka abatageze kuri 35, batubwire raporo yakozwe nibura ngo bamagane ubwo bwicanyi bwa  FPR ! None amahanga arashaka ngo aba bantu bakomeze bicwe ?
 
3.     LETA YA KAGAME NA FPR NTABWO IZAKURWAHO N'AMAHANGA
          Abategereje ko leta mpotozi ya Kagame na FPR ye izavanwaho n'igitutu cy'amahanga musubize amerwe mw'isaho! Mumenye ko ifite miliyari zirenga mirongo ine z'amadolari yasahuye igihugu cyacu n'icy'abaturanyi bacu ba Repubulika Iharanira Demokarasi ya Congo. Ayo madolari y'u Rwanda n'abanyarwanda Kagame na FPR basahuye niyo batagagaguza hirya no hino muri za lobbying ngo zishyigikire ubutegetsi bwabo bugumeho, noneho ugasanga abo bakozi b'umuryango w'abibumbye (ONU) n'ab'ibihugu bimwe babakorera ibyo babasabye bitewe n'uko baba babegereye mbere hose(kare) bakagira n'icyo babapfumbatisha. Niba amahanga atinyuka kuvuga mu ruhame ngo nihongere habe ho kurasa ku mpunzi hirengagijwe Mapping report ibitse mukabati ka l'ONU, birerekana neza ko abari bategereje amahanga, mukureyo amaso mureke twishakemo ibisubizo by'ibibazo by'igihugu cyacu nk'abanyarwanda ari nabo bene kiriya gihugu! Kwibwira ngo umunyagitugu kabuhariwe Kagame igitutu azacyotswa n'amahanga, ibyo ni ukubyibagirwa. Igitutu azacyotswa n'abanyarwanda ubwacu.
          Ibyo Senateri Russ Feingold uhagarariye Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika mu karere k'ibiyaga bigari bya Afurika yavuze kuri izi mpunzi mwabonye ko bisa n'ibyo Umuryango uhuza ibihugu by'i Burayi uherutse kwandika kuri FDLR mw'itangazo ryawo. Kuba kandi Senateri Russ Feingold yarabivugiye muri US-AFRICA SUMMIT nabyo bifite icyo bishatse kuvuga, ntiyapfuye gutura ibintu aho gusa. Ni ubutumwa igihugu cye  cy'Amerika ahagarariye cyamutumye kuvuga. Biragaragara ko dukwiye gushyira hamwe, tukagararariza isi ko ibikorwa n'abayobozi bamwe b' ibi bihugu bitubangamiye cyane.  Kuva kera Bill Clinton yashyigikiye iyicwa ry'abanyarwanda n'umutekano muke mu karere k'ibiyaga bigari bya Afurika,  abikora mu izina ry'abaturage b'Amerika ; Tony Blair yabikoze mu izina ry'abaturage b'Ubwongereza nyamara yaraharaniraga inyungu ze bwite ; Perezida Museveni na n'ubu ugikomeje gufasha Kagame, abikora mu izina ry'abaturage ba Uganda nyamara ni kubw'inyungu ze bwite. None na Senateri Russ Feingold arabikora mu izina ry'igihugu cye. Harageze ko twereka amahanga n'abaturage b'ibi bihugu byo muri Amerika n'i Burayi ko ubwicanyi bukomeje gukorerwa mu karere k'ibiyaga bigari bya Afurika, niba batagize icyo bakora ko amaherezo bazabibazwa.
 
4.     IKIBAZO CYA FDLR N'IMIRYANGO YABO
          Ikibazo cya FDLR n'imiryango yabo n'izindi mpunzi z'abanyarwanda ziri kumwe nabo muri Repubulika Iharanira Demokarasi ya Congo ni ikibazo gikwiye gushyirwa mu rwego rw'ubutabazi (humanitaire/humanitarian) kandi byihutirwa.
          Leta y'u Rwanda gusaba no gushishikariza ingabo za ONU n'iza leta ya Congo kugaba ibitero kuri FDLR n'imiryango yabo n'izindi mpunzi,  n'amahanga gushyigikira  igitekerezo nk'icyo, ntabwo ari wo muti. Bariya bantu nkuko twabivuze haruguru, bari muri Congo ari impunzi zo mu Rwanda, igihugu kiyoborwa na leta ya FPR Inkotanyi  yananiwe gukemura ibibazo byacyo by'irondabwoko, irondakarere n'irondakazu (nepotisme) igahitamo kubitwara mu baturanyi. Ibi byatumye abakongomani kera bahoze ari abaturanyi beza b'intangarugero bahinduka babi bitewe na ziriya ntambara z'amako n'iz'ubusahuzi bw'amabuye y'agaciro Perezida Kagame na FPR bateye muri Congo kuva 1996 bagaba yo igitero cy'intambara bagatwara yo ububi, ubugome n'ubwicanyi byo mu Rwanda bitabaga mu baturage ba Repubulika Iharanira Demokarasi ya Congo.
          None kubera ibyo, abanyekongo ntibagishaka FDLR n'impunzi z'abanyarwnda ku butaka bw'igihugu cyabo kandi birumvikana imyaka imaze kuba makumyabiri yose! Ni myinshi.
 
5.     BIGENDE BITE RERO!
          Iby'ibiganiro n'imishyikirano hagati ya Perezida Kagame n'abatavuga rumwe na leta ye abo ari bo bose, nkuko Senateri Russ Feingold wa Amerika aherutse kubivuga, ntawe utazi ko bitazaba kubushake bwa Perezida Kagame kuko ntabyo ashaka, nta n'ibyo azashaka. Keretse nabitegekwa, kandi ntabandi bazabimutegeka atari twe abanyarwanda ubwacu.
          Turasaba ibihugu bitanu bigize Inama Ihoraho Ishinzwe Amahoro kw'Isi, hamwe n'ibindi bihugu bibifitiye ubushobozi nka Canada n'ibihugu bigize umuryango uhuza ibihugu by'i Burayi kubuza ingabo za ONU n'iza leta ya Congo kugaba ibitero ku mpunzi z'abanyarwanda, gutabara byihutirwa (action humanitaire) abagize FDLR n'imiryango yabo n'izindi mpunzi z'abanyarwanda ziri kumwe nabo muri Congo, no gushaka uko ikibazo cy'akarere k' ibiyaga bigari by' Afurika cyakemurwa mu maguru mashya, kuko kutabikora ingaruka bizateza mu minsi iri imbere zizagera ku isi yose, cyane cyane kuri ibi bihugu bikomeye kuko bizaba byirengagije gutabara nkana.
          Kuba bigaragara ko amahanga amwe atitaye ku kibazo cy'abanyarwanda, birakwiye ko FDLR hamwe n'indi mitwe y'ingabo n'amashyaka ya politiki arwanya leta ya Kagame na FPR Inkotanyi, twese twahura tugashyiraho gahunda ya politiki ikubiyemo ibyo twese duhuriyeho(programme politique, economique, social et culturel commun de l'opposition/Common opposition political, economic,  social and cultural platform) kugirango dushyikirize abanyarwanda n'amahanga icyerekezo gishya twese twifuza kuganishamo igihugu cyacu.

Why We Exist

Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states, ruling elites, armed groups, military forces and security services. But these abuses are often sustained by international silence, Western lobbying, trade interests, migration deals, mineral access, diplomatic partnerships and unequal global accountability. Africa Realities Media exposes that system.

Lived Experience Matters

Survivors, displaced communities, refugees, families affected by repression, journalists, activists, women, young people and diaspora voices are not passive subjects. They are knowledge holders. Their experiences must shape policy, advocacy, journalism and public debate. The people closest to injustice are often closest to the solutions.

Our Principle

Africa Realities Media is rooted in one principle: African lives deserve equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

THE BATTLE OF RUBAYA: Rwanda's War for Minerals Exposed

T he FDLR Pretext Collapses Under the Weight of Documented Plunder   Introduction: A Battle That Tells the Truth When Rwandan-backed RDF/M23 forces fought with extraordinary ferocity to seize and hold Rubaya — a remote mining town in North Kivu, eastern Democratic Republic of Congo — the stated justification was security. Kigali's consistent public line has been that its military presence in the DRC is a response to the threat posed by the Forces Democratiques de Liberation du Rwanda (FDLR), an armed group whose leaders include individuals linked to the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. This narrative has been accepted, qualified, or left insufficiently challenged by Western governments and multilateral institutions for over a decade. The Battle of Rubaya strips that narrative bare. What unfolded in Rubaya was not a counter-insurgency operation against genocidal remnants. It was a sustained military campaign — reinforced by the Rwanda Defence Forces (RDF), prosecuted at sign...

Rwanda’s Major John Sengati assassinated in Gitarama, Rwanda

http://www.inyenyerinews.org/amakuru-2/rwandas-major-john-sengati-assassinated-in-gitarama-rwanda/ Rwanda's Major John Sengati assassinated in Gitarama, Rwanda May 12, 2013  by  Rwema IT Webmaster   Leave a Comment By: Jennifer Fierberg Rwandans are saddened by the death of Major John Sengati who was assassinated in Gitarama (appx 50km from Kigali) on May 10th, 2013. John Sengati was a retired Major, and ADC to Gen. Kayumba Nyamwasa from 1993 to 2001. After Gen Kayumba went to UK to further his studies, Major John Sengati was appointed Commanding Officer (C.O.) of Garrison Force that was in charge of the security to VIPs under the Ministry of Defense. Around 2007, he went to study at Kigali Institute of Technology (KIST) while he was still an active member of the RDF. According to local  reports , in 2009 Major Sengati's land was redistributed in Karama to local residents. Around 2010 he was forced to retire from the army, because he was considered to be loyal and ...

Desperate Kagame: Where Does He Go From Here—and What Comes Next?

  How Paul Kagame Uses Diplomats' "Bury Your Head in the Sand" Strategy as a Green Light to Continue Rwanda's War in the DRC Africa Realities Media   |   17 July 2026 The purpose of this article is to expose a deliberate and systematic strategy: Paul Kagame's years-long practice of creating events — diplomatic dinners, RPF party meetings, genocide commemorations, international business forums and RPF Bureau Politique addresses — to which he invites foreign ambassadors and the world's business and political elite for one purpose: to explain, justify, and defend Rwanda's military invasion of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Everybody who follows this region knows the strategy now. The same narrative. The same arguments. The same defiance. At one event he tells the Trump Administration to go to hell. At the next he says those sanctioning him will leave power and he will remain. At the RPF Bureau Politique of 17 July 2026, he tells ambassadors that the on...

The Kagame Myth: Western Power, Private Jets and Rwanda’s Controlled Reality

  ANALYSIS AND INVESTIGATION Introduction: The Myth and the Man Behind the Myth There is a version of Paul Kagame that exists in the conference halls of Davos, in the pages of Western magazines, in private hotel meetings in London, Paris and Washington, and on the sleeves of European football shirts. In this version, Kagame is a visionary. A builder. A disciplined African moderniser. A leader who pulled a broken country from the ashes of genocide and turned it into what admirers often call the “Singapore of Africa”. In this version, Rwanda is clean, efficient, safe, investment-friendly and orderly. Kagame is presented as the African leader the West wants to believe in: controlled, polished, pro-market, security-focused and comfortable in elite Western spaces. Then there is the Rwanda that many Rwandans, exiles, journalists, opposition figures and human rights organisations describe. In this Rwanda, YouTubers and online commentators are jailed for what they say. Critics die in custo...

The FDLR Myth: How Rwanda Weaponises a Diminished Threat to Justify Occupation

The FDLR Myth: How Rwanda Weaponises a Diminished Threat to Justify Occupation Investigation Exposes Contradictions in Rwanda's Security Narrative For over a decade, Rwanda has justified its military presence in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo by citing threats from the FDLR, a Hutu militia group linked to the 1994 genocide. But an investigation into FDLR's actual capabilities, Rwanda's military operations, and patterns of violence reveals a narrative that does not match reality. The FDLR threat, whilst real, has been systematically exaggerated and manipulated to justify objectives that have nothing to do with the militia group. Introduction The Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) occupies a central position in Rwanda's justification for military intervention in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. For more than two decades, Rwandan authorities have portrayed the militia group as an existential threat requiring sustaine...

The Aggressor’s Complaint: Why Rwanda’s “Biased” US Sanctions Argument Echoes Russia

Kigali wants Washington to punish Congo too. But a ceasefire that leaves the occupier in place is not peace; it is occupation without noise. African lives are not worth less. African deaths are not normal. Western interests must never become a licence to kill African people. Introduction: A Familiar Complaint On 29 June 2026, Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Olivier Nduhungirehe, sat before the cameras of France 24 and declared that his country was “disappointed by the increasingly biased US mediation” in the conflict with the Democratic Republic of Congo. He asked why sanctions had targeted only Rwanda. He called the measures unfair, one-sided and counterproductive. Weeks earlier, President Paul Kagame had told Jeune Afrique that sanctions and threats were insults thrown at Rwanda, and accused Washington of exerting heavy pressure on Rwanda while treating the DRC more delicately. The grievance sounds reasonable until you remember where you have heard it before. Since 2022, the Kr...

The Empire of Kagame’s Global Friends: The Powerful Network Behind His International Protection

This article identifies the central obstacle to accountability for Paul Kagame’s actions in Rwanda and the Great Lakes region: the powerful global network of political leaders, former presidents, diplomats, philanthropists, religious figures, businesspeople, international institutions, sporting organisations, advisers and paid lobbyists that has promoted, legitimised, defended and protected him for three decades. This is a problem-identification article. It asks why Kagame has remained internationally influential and protected despite serious and extensively documented allegations concerning Rwanda’s military actions in the Democratic Republic of Congo, political repression, extraterritorial operations, mineral exploitation and the treatment of political opponents, journalists and critics. The answer is that Kagame has built an international network that gives him political access, diplomatic protection, commercial partnerships, institutional legitimacy, favourable media coverage, ...

French State-Sponsored Racism Without Limits Against the Hutu in France.

French State-Sponsored Racism Without Limits Against the Hutu in France France does not simply remember the Rwanda genocide. It owns it. For three decades, the French state has sponsored and enforced a racist political order — criminalising Hutu identity, silencing African expertise, enforcing a one-sided judicial record and reproducing the same ethnic hierarchy Belgium imposed on Rwanda under colonialism. This is not a failure of memory. It is state-sponsored racism without limits, dressed in the language of historical accountability. African lives are not worth less. African deaths are not normal. Western interests must never become a licence to kill African people. Introduction: Racism as Policy The genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda was real. Between April and July 1994, following an invasion of Rwanda launched by the RPF from Uganda on 1 October 1990, initially under the command of Major-General Fred Rwigyema and subsequently led by Paul Kagame after Rwigyema was killed ...

Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states and ruling elites, but they are often protected by international silence, lobbying, public relations, trade interests, migration deals and unequal global accountability. While governments pay lobbyists to present a good image abroad, ordinary African people continue to face violence, hunger, disease, poverty, repression and exclusion. We challenge the normalisation of African suffering and demand equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

Pourquoi Africa Realities Media est différent?

Africa Realities Media s’adresse à l’Afrique et au monde développé. De nombreux abus subis par les peuples africains sont commis par des États africains et des élites dirigeantes, mais ils sont souvent protégés par le silence international, le lobbying, les relations publiques, les intérêts commerciaux, les accords migratoires et une responsabilité mondiale inégale. Tandis que des gouvernements paient des lobbyistes pour présenter une bonne image à l’étranger, des Africains ordinaires continuent de faire face à la violence, à la faim, aux maladies, à la pauvreté, à la répression et à l’exclusion. Nous contestons la normalisation de la souffrance africaine et exigeons une vérité égale, une justice égale et une protection égale.

Policy and Systems Change

Our work is designed to trigger debate, discomfort and action. We do not only expose injustice; we work for policy and systems change. We want governments and institutions to address the root causes of inequality, disadvantage, discrimination, exclusion and barriers affecting African people. We believe lasting change must be shaped by people with lived experience.

Exposing Injustice in Africa

Africa Realities Media is an independent African accountability platform based in London. We report, analyse and challenge the systems that shape African suffering, silence African victims and protect abusive power. We are not here to repeat diplomatic language. We are here to ask the questions that are often avoided: why are African deaths treated as normal? Why are African victims given less urgency? Why are governments that imprison, exclude, displace or kill their own people protected when they serve powerful international interests?

Africanews

Africa Realities Media gives space to writers, researchers, experts, activists, community voices, campaigners, analysts and people with lived experience who want to contribute thoughtful, responsible and courageous content about the changes needed in the region, as well as the political, economic, cultural and social African realities that are often ignored, minimised or misrepresented. Our articles and videos aim to encourage debate, raise awareness, stimulate critical thinking and support reflection. We seek to help people in the Great Lakes Region understand their rights to human rights, development and wellbeing, while also encouraging decision-makers to be more transparent, responsive and accountable.
