Agape123:Yes, imported cars any where in d world to Rwanda is 100% tax clearance, even wen u buy from their neighboring country Uganda where things are much more cheap, it's still d same thing. Paul is a devilish propagandist that have succeeded in fooling every body all over the world into making them to believe that Rwandans lacks nothing. If u are caught begging as a child on d street they will take u and that will be d last any one will set eyes on u. I spent months there and wat my Rwandes man who was working with me told me about Paul and his government was so scary. No one criticizes him or u are gone forever. Opposition members who opposes him disappears without a trace and their properties confiscated by the government. There was one very big hotel in KIGALI, in fact that hotel should be number 3 best hotel in Rwanda, that's after Selina and Marriot hotels. But guess wat, that hotel was locked up for years by Kegame government simply cos d owner is in d opposition party. Human right abuses is so common there. People lives in fear there and no one dares talk. Kegame have got spies every where and if u are caught talking against d president, u will be tagged an enemy of the country and either be imprisoned or murdered. The people are suffering really seriously but every one there pretense as if all is well, as Kegame want them to. Even within KIGALI, the only roads that are really tared are places where all those foreign NGOs, embassies and those areas where tourist visits, outside those areas, many roads inside KIGALI are not tared, and full of red sand and dust. Kigali is wat I called a WHITED GRAVE WHICH APPEARS TO BE NEAT AND CLEAN OUTSIDE BUT INSIDE IS FULL OF DEAD MENS BONE. Kegames propaganda is really the best in the world. He is number one crook president of the world. 30 Likes 3 Shares |

pseudonomer:€1k, that should be around #500k. Well, for 3weeks that may be a bit ok depending on where u stay and how u spend. I didn't club for even a night, yet a thousand dollar I went wit at the time I visited didn't last me up to a month and that was even at a time dollar was exchanged for #500 per a dollar in 2016. So including clubbing on ur plans on budget of €1k for 3weeks may not really go well. I'm talking based on experience, and u know things are changing fast, u can imagine 2016 and a thousand dollar wasn't enough for a month, compare that to 2021? Ur guess is as good as mine. Beside, for the locals u wouldn't like to live in the kind of areas they live in KIGALI. Cos some of those areas doesn't have tared roads. Is like vising Lagos and u want to go stay in Ajegule area, that's how it is wit so many of their locals. The only locals that live in KIGALI main town or city are the politicians in d ruling party. Even in KIGALI some areas, like where u have embassies, NGOs and big cooperate organizations are called town. Those Are the high brawl areas in KIGALI, so if u want to stay in such areas be ready to pay more, and it should be nothing less than from 5k dollar per a month. I know of a East African UN head in KIGALI who is a Nigerian. His wife worships at Winners chapel church KIGALI. She drove me and a bishop that visited Kigali from US in her car to go have lunch at Marriot hotel KIGALI. They pay 6k dollar per month where they were staying in KIGALI. But u can get a room self contain for like 150 dollar per a month at the outskirt of KIGALI. The city is beautiful and neat and peaciful too. I'm sure u will enjoy ur visit. 1 Like |

The 10k for 30GB is 3G and not 4G, open your eyes and check my post where I said 4G, the 3G in Kigali is slower than Nigeria 2G lol you can’t even send a WhatsApp message or even load Nairaland pictures with it.

4everEdward:Bro have u bought that before? What really are u talking about here, is it not the same Kigali i stayed for some time? 10,000rwf which is 5k naira equivalent can't buy u more than 10gb in Kigali. I used to buy 1gb for 1000rwf and it vanishes before i could even do any thing with it. Or are u saying 5k naira could buy u 30gb of mtn here in Nigeria? cos i didn't see anything that's cheaper in KIGALI more than Nigeria, if u know any, pls name it. And even if there is, definitely data isn't one of them. Abi no be the same mtn we they use here they are using there too? Has mtn data ever been cheap here in Nigeria let alone Kigali where they are in collaboration with the Rwandan government to rob the citizens dry. Can 5k buy u 30gb of mtn data here in Nigeria? Even network wasn't that fast there at d time i was there. The capital city Kigali is great no doubt but lets not exaggerate things pls. The city of Kigali is beautiful and i love it, and like i said before, i'm coming back there soon to invest, but pls lets say things the way they are to avoid misleading would be immigrants who may want to jump into the next available flight to Kigali unprepared cos of what they had read here. Let's tell them the whole truth so that they know what they are getting into. You are there for school and may not have had the chance to move around and interact with the locals, which are the ones that matters most, if truly u want to know wats going on in a country. I was there to establish a ministry, and i worked directly with those that are directly affected. As u may know, churches and ministries are regarded just like NGOs in Rwanda and the locals come to church, and approach pastors just to see if they can get help from the pastors, there they open up to u and tell u the situation of things in the country. Pastor of LORDS CHOSEN used to pay members money just to have them come to church. He continued doing that until he ran out of money and had to run back to Nigeria to get help from their headquarters here in Lagos. In fact it was so bad he could not pay for the hall they were using for church services, cos even the few members he had were not paying tithes or giving offering in the church. I met with lots of people there, and some directly worked with me. So you can see that i stood a better chance of knowing more and having a first hand info about things over there, even up until this moment, though i'm no longer there. I watched the video u uploaded wen u went to the market, and u said u spent just 30 dollars, then i looked at wat u bought and they are just few things. Hope u know that 30 dollar worth almost 15k naira? Do u know how many food stuffs u could buy with 15k naira here in Nigeria? Please compare it to wat u bought with over 30krwf and see if really things are expensive there or not. Have a blessed life over there. Thanks. 46 Likes 5 Shares |

nwadikeokey11: Thanks a lot for this, he is a student, I follow him on Ig and he uploaded a video of where he is staying, you can’t compare a student apartment or maybe a college accommodation to what is outside in town ok? I stay in Kagugu, Umucyo estate and I rented a 4 bedroom duplex with my friends at $1,000 per month. 1 million RWF (agent still Collect money o ) The house doesn’t even have AC, I had to buy a very small fan of 6K or max 8k in Nigeria, I bought it for 40K RWF, na plastic fan o, no b OX fan we use in my church o lol , the house is just like a normal N1.5m house per year in Lagos. Things are expensive here, even the locals know. The 10K he is saying for 30GB is right but only on 3G which is like 2G in Nigeria and is very very slow even 4G we de beg God lol.

Rwanda is a beautiful and lovely country but if you don't have money, DO NOT GO THERE. Not even to hustle. Just very good for vacation or holiday. Enjoyed my vacation there to the fullest and plan to go back for holiday sometime next year. Compared to lagos, Rwanda is a Lil bit more expensive, but nothing extraordinary. Their locals are very friendly. |

oluayebenz:You both don't need this, pls. And believe me, if Rwanda had just one tent of the resources at Nigerias disposal, no country in Africa would come close to her in development and every good thing, and that's the simple truth. I talk about the positives as well as the negatives. The only problem Kegame have is trying to install himself as the life president of the country, and intolerance of the members of the opposition party, and any one that tries to criticize him, apart from these, i have not seen any president in Africa that comes close to him in love for his country. So it is very bad of u to call Rwanda shithole, and to be sincere with u, i prefer Kigali in terms of development and the rule of law than Nigeria 100%. And listen, i have been to the most developed parts of both Abuja and Lagos, there's none of these areas that's as developed as Kigali main town, and that's the truth. Kegame steal his own money and invest it in his country, ur cursed criminal Nigeria politicians stole their own and used it to develop other countries of the world where they starched the money. Kegame imprisoned his own blood brother for misappropriating the countrys money, which of ur presidents, past, present, dead or alive could do that? Once i went to the airport to change money in Kigali and intentionally challenged a 2 star police officer, and a junior one who were on duty. First i was stopped by a junior police officer who demanded to know why i was at the airport and to see my id, i had my international passport wit me but decided not to show him simply cos i wanted to know how Rwandan police work. After about 3minutes of talking to me politely and demanding for my means of identification which i declined showing him any thing, the junior officer was summoned by the 2 star officer who demanded to know what the matter was. After explaining to him, the senior officer turned to me and politely asked, pls can i see ur id card? i said no but i want to change money. He looked up straight into my eyes and said, sorry, but we won't let u in cos that's the rule here. No identification, no entry. After arguing wit him for about 5minutes, i brought out my international passport and handed it to him, immediately he saw the green passport, he laughed, shook his head and said, Nigeria? Hhhhh, and gave me back my passport and ask me to go in. Pls tell me, which of ur Nigeria junior police officer can take such behaviour from any one, let alone a senior police officer? No bi hot slap them for take pursue me commot from the airport? It is a law in Rwanda that if a force man, military or police beats up a civilian that force person goes in for 10yrs jail term, whether he is at fault or not, and if it was the civilian that's at fault, the civilian serves for 5yrs term while the force person still serve for 10yrs. So pls tell me, can such happen in ur Nigeria? It is abomination for any sane person to celebrate Nigerias failure. I seriously prayed to God wen i was in KIGALI TO PLEASE GIVE RWANDA JUST one QUATER OF THE KIND OF WEALTH HE BLESSED NIGERIA WIT, AND I MADE THIS PRAYER AFTER SEEING THE LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT IN KIGALI WITH THE LITTLE THEY HAVE., so i thought they could do better and more should they have more resources, hence the passionate plea to Almighty God to bless that country wit one good natural resources. HONESTLY NIGERIA DOESNT DESERVE THE KIND OF GREAT WEALTH GOD BLESSED HER WITH, cos the country Nigeria is cursed with evil rulers. SO THERE'S NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY TO BE PROUD OF ABOUT NIGERIA.

nwadikeokey11: Your smartness and ability to handle matter very justly deserves an Oscar. No sane person will prefer the current state of Nigeria to Rwanda, no doubt there are lots of negative things to say about Rwanda this is the case for many countries of the world especially land lock countries, but to me personally, the good outweighed the bad because l experienced Kigali firsthand myself and visited other towns in the country. There is Rwandan Air Water Electricity Very serene environment Unmatchable peace and Tranquility No fear of being kidnapped, killed or raped. Very low corruption Etc. Don't forget Kigali is still the most cleaniest city in Africa. And they achieved all of these without any meaningful natural resources. They deserve an accolade pls 24 Likes 2 Shares |

good4all40:Not just achieving all that without any meaningful resources but also within just a few years, remember they just came out of a very terrible civil war, or genocide that completely crippled the country. So to have achieved all wat they had achieved within just barely 27yrs after that bad civil war worth much more than commendation and respect for them. Personally I'm in love with KIGALI, I mean real and pure love. I repeat, I'm relocating there pretty soon. I want to.raise my children there. A country where her citizens don't flock any Western embassies like wat we have in this real shithole country called Nigeria can't be described wit any thing less than great. I visited both US, NEITHER LAND, UK, South Korea and some other western embassies in KIGALI and to my uttur amazement there was no single line of those seeking to flee Rwanda to go in search of greener pastures in Europe or US. The US embassy in KIGALI issues Rwandan passport holders with 10yrs visa and they rarely deny them visa. Now come back to Nigeria, the supposed giant of rubbish (Africa), they give u just 2yrs visas for tourism, and before u get it it will be like traveling from earth to heaven on foot. I have bin to both Lagos US consulate in Lagos and embassy in Abuja, the type of crowed I saw in those places made me to know that there's completely no hope for Nigeria at all. So also u see crowed in all the embassies in Nigeria, including vfs centers in Lagos and Abuja, in fact those foreign embassies have made billions out of Nigerians, and at the end they still deny thousands of them visas. If any country should be called shithole between Nigeria and Rwanda definitely that country should without doubt be Nigeria and not Reanda. Thanks though for the complements, bro. 15 Likes 1 Share |
