A Rwanda group led by former soldier in the Rwanda forces has announced that it has started a process that will culminate in the overthrow of President Paul Kagame’s government.

A statement signed by Maj. Callixte N. Sankara indicates that the group can no-longer look on as President Kagame’s government reportedly continues to wreack havoc on the innocent people of Rwanda.

“We therefore created the armed forces known as the National Liberation Forces (NLF) and we
assigned them the mission to put an immediate end to the dictatorial power of the RPFKagame.
The NLF will use all possible means including the armed struggle to drive the RPF out
of power, since it refused all peaceful ways,” reads part of the statement released by the group.

The group adds that: “The NLF comes to the rescue of ALL Rwandans since the young men and women who compose them come from all ethnic divides – Hutu, Tutsi and Twa- and they swore to give their heart and
mind to the cause of Rwanda, even if they should pay with their own lives to snatch the victory”.

Full statement

We, the leaders of the MRCD:
Considering that, the RPF-Inkotanyi devastated the country while dividing Rwandans;
Considering that, unity and reconciliation among Rwandans are no longer possible as long as
the RPF and Kagame continue to kill both Hutu and Tutsi opponents;
Considering that the plight of Rwandans caused by the RPF and Kagame through the techniques
of impoverishment and starvation by unprecedented tax pressure, large-scale expropriation
and other multiple cruel strategies;
Considering that the RPF, which has taken possession of all the patrimony of the country,
persists in cynically asking the brainwashed, poverty and unemployment stricken youth to
create employment;
Considering that Kagame has no intention of renouncing the massacres, since terror is the
driving force of his system, to the point that his current victims are the survivors of the genocide
– transformed into his trade commodity – caused by himself, when he shot down the plane
carrying both President Habyarimana of Rwanda and Ntaryamira of Burundi on 6 April 1994;
Considering that Kagame is once again ready for the massacres as it was revealed by Colonel
Muhizi through his speech dated 08 July 2018 when he pronounced that the RPF and Kagame
are ready to “SWEEP” the Rwandans which means they are ready to commit another genocide;
Considering that, Kagame fraudulently modified the Constitution to cling on to power, resorting
to the victimization of his opponents, while murdering some of them both inside and outside
the country.
IN LIGHT WITH ALL THESE REASONS:
We, the leaders of the RMDC, decided to rise as one man to face all forms of racism,
regionalism, excessive injustice and human rights abuses. The youth of the RMDC, which has
already transcended the spirit of segregation that characterizes the RPF, is set to fly to the
rescue of Rwanda;
We therefore created the armed forces known as the National Liberation Forces (NLF) and we
assigned them the mission to put an immediate end to the dictatorial power of the RPFKagame.
The NLF will use all possible means including the armed struggle to drive the RPF out
of power, since it refused all peaceful ways.
The NLF comes to the rescue of ALL Rwandans since the young men and women who compose
them come from all ethnic divides – Hutu, Tutsi and Twa- and they swore to give their heart and
mind to the cause of Rwanda, even if they should pay with their own lives to snatch the victory.
We reassure the Rwandan people that it is possible to get rid of this filthy dictatorship, since
wherever the NLF have tried the experiment recently, whether in Cyangugu, Nyamagabe,
Nyaruguru, Bugesera and Huye, everywhere the soldiers of Kagame suffered casualties and
those who escaped preferred to take their legs close to their necks. We ask our dear
compatriots to take for example the populations of the aforementioned localities who have  given a determined support to the valiant NLF to debunk this dictatorship. We ask our
compatriots as well as foreigners residing in Rwanda to dissociate themselves from the RPFKagame
and bring their help to the NLF youth devoted to the national cause and ready for the
supreme sacrifice;
We inform our compatriots that the NLF are present and supported in every corner of Rwanda.
Long live Rwanda and the Rwandan people!
Long live, the NLF determined to fly to the rescue of Rwanda!
Done in Nyamagabe, on 15th day of July, 2018
