On July 12, #Rwanda’s dictator Paul Kagame ominously predicted a grim future for opposition leader Victoire Ingabire—his most serious political opponent who is barred from today’s #RwandaDecides general elections—as he baselessly smeared and vilified her. Earlier this month, Kagame said @VictoireUmuhoza was the “small woman of a genocidaire” during a televised meeting with social media influencers committed to the regime’s propaganda apparatus. In the same meeting, Kagame also launched more baseless smears against the @FbdnStories consortium of 50 international journalists from 17 countries behind the #RwandaClassified transnational investigative dossier. A study by @ClemsonHub published this month documented Kagame’s regime’s orchestration of a campaign of propaganda, disinformation, and smears in the lead up to this week’s general elections. HRF condemns dictator Paul Kagame's baseless smears and chilling threats against critics, along with the sustained campaign of disinformation his regime is orchestrating. HRF will hold Kagame’s regime responsible for any harm done to Ingabire.
