RDF shared the photos of Ian Kagame, Park Udahemuka and David Nsengiyumva who completed their course and were commissioned to the rank of 2nd Lieutenant at a ceremony held at the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst UK, on Friday, August 12.
A video shared academy on the official Facebook showed President Kagame and the First Lady Mrs. Jeannette Kagame arriving for the academy’s sovereign parade mounted by the cadets as the national anthem ‘Rwanda Nziza’ was played by the band.
