KIGALI, Rwanda
President of Rwanda, Paul Kagame, on Saturday, July 29, gifted his Mozambican counterpart, Filipe Nyusi with long horned Rwandan cattle locally known as Inyambo from his farm in Eastern Province.
“Earlier today, President
Kagame received President Nyusi of Mozambique for a tour of his farm where he
gifted him with Inyambo cows,” read a tweet by the President’s office.
Nyusi who is on a visit to
Rwanda was driven, as seen in one of the tweeted pictures, by Kagame during the
tour around the farm.
Rwanda enjoys good relations
with Mozambique in various fields, especially security.
President Nyusi in September
2021 thanked the people of Rwanda and President Kagame, who was then visiting
in northern Mozambique, for having quickly understood his country’s need for
help and acted accordingly to help thwart a threat posed by terrorists in his
country’s northernmost province of Cabo Delgado.
Earlier, in July 2021, Kigali,
at the request of Maputo, deployed 1,000 troops to Cabo Delgado to help fight
the terrorists, stabilise the area and restore the authority of the state.
Kigali sent troops to work closely with Mozambique Armed Defence Forces (FADM)
and forces from SADC, in the fight against terrorism in Cabo Delgado.
Joint efforts between Rwandan
and Mozambican forces quickly yielded good results, circling many bases of the
terrorists, capturing them and restoring security.
