“Based on serious need we have and the overwhelming potential, why don’t we make it happen? The best we have done is not good enough. We are still lacking electricity to light our streets, our homes. It is not enough for Rwanda to make a little progress. We need to get organized nationally but also across borders. We need to be tired of repeating the story of how behind we are the rest of the world. The bottom line is we have to work together.”
– President Kagame speaking on energy at the launch of the New Deal on Energy for Africa at the World Economic Forum in Davos january 2016.
