President of Tanzania H.E. Jakaya Kikwete is confirmed to participate in an exclusive "Conversation on Africa's Past, Present and Future" with African Heads of State during AAI's 60th Anniversary Awards Gala on September 25 at the Hilton New York in New York City.

Held during the opening week of the UN General Assembly, the engaging 20-minute conversation will provide a unique opportunity for African leaders to highlight the evolution of Africa's progress , discuss the current situation and share their vision for accelerating the continent's development and socio-economic progress in the future.

"AAI is pleased that Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete will participate in a high-level discussion with African leaders on how far African nations have come since independence, where we are today, and commitments to moving Africa forward into the future," said Amini Kajunju, AAI's President and CEO.

The relationship between AAI and Tanzania has been ongoing since the country's independence.  Most recently, President Kikwete accepted the AAI African National Achievement Award on behalf of the People of Tanzania at AAI's Awards Gala in 2007, At that time, AAI paid tribute to the People of Tanzania for the country's significant progress in education, environmental conservation, and in creating a business-friendly environment for entrepreneurs and investment at its Awards Gala in 2007. Tanzania's effort and vision was subsequently highlighted during  President Barack Obama's trip to Tanzania this past June.

Other African Heads of State invited to participate in the "Conversation" include Prime Minister of Ethiopia and Chair of the African Union H.E. Hailemariam Desalegn, President of Ghana H.E. John Dramani Mahama, President of Namibia H.E. Hifikepunye Lucas Pohamba; President of Nigeria H.E. Goodluck Jonathan, and President of South Africa H.E. Jacob Zuma.

[Rwanda Forum] Who is Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, the butcher of Southport, UK?

   If Axel Muganwa Rudakubana had been a son of a Hutu, what would have been the news headlines in Kagame's mouthpiece tabloids? Since Axel Rudakubana's parents are Tutsi genocide survivors, and his father, Alphonse Rudakubana, is a nephew of Wellars Gasamagera, the Secretary General of Rwanda's ruling party - RPF, the tragedy that occurred in the UK has not been mentioned by any tabloids or news outlets in Rwanda. However, had Axel Muganwa Rudakubana been a child of a Hutu, or a child of a Tutsi opposition figure, we can all guess the type of headline that would have appeared in the tabloid controlled by Criminal Paul Kagame. But now, they remain silent on this despicable tragedy. FYI...
