Rwandan Dictator Paul Kagame and his closest military aides, Gen James Kabarebe and Gen Patrick Nyamvumba

After almost 3 decades of respite, apart a few here and there, waves of military coups and coup attempts have returned in Africa, again. The stakes are high and some leaders, especially those labelled dictators, are already preparing for potential coups against their reign, readying and organizing their close associates and family members for the worst scenarios. One of these leaders is the Rwandan dictator General Paul Kagame,  who has been keeping a pretty low profile but  did not hide his worries during recent interviews with the media. AfroAmerica Network has obtained information regarding the scenarios being  secretely investigated or explored by closest advisers and family members  working with the most trusted agents within Rwandan Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI).

 On January 12, 2022,  an Extraordinary Summit of the Heads of State and Government of the SADC was held  in Malawi.  In the Summit, the SADC leaders hailed the successes of SAMIM and SADC troops in the fight against the insurgency in Mozambique, ignoring the contribution of the troops from Rwanda.  AfroAmerica Network sources close to the Rwanda and Mozambique governments have  now said that leaders of the two countries,  Filipe Jacinto Nyusi of Mozambique and, most importantly,  Paul Kagame of Rwanda are not happy. Their closest aids, facing frustration and anger,  are wondering what will follow.
