While in Nyagatare District, I also visited the Inyange Milk Powder Plant to see how Rwanda🇷🇼 is adding value to local milk production. I was inspired by how farmers, private sector & the 🇷🇼 government are working together to build thriving communities.

Today, I join the people of Rwanda in remembering the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. I honour the memory of the victims, the resilience of survivors, and the unity of a nation that chose healing over hate. May #NeverAgain be our shared commitment. #Kwibuka31
