Summary
The Rwandan media can be brutal. One outlet published a story accusing me of having committed amarorerwa (genocide?) in Rwanda and that I had been deported from Rwanda because of ruswa (corruption).

Ms Michela Wrong (what a name?) wrote a book titled ‘Do Not Disturb’. It is on the death of Col Patrick Karegeya in a South African hotel room. Col Karegeya was former director general of Rwanda’s external intelligence agency. Ms Wrong is a British national.
Col Karegeya’s death or assassination or murder or killing was widely covered in Uganda’s media. Karegeya was born and studied in Uganda; needless to say, his Ugandan ideological, military and political heritage is a given.
