Africa, like the rest of the world, has its challenges, from poor governance to no accountability, but it is a big mistake not to invest in the continent, President Paul Kagame has said.

Kagame was speaking on Tuesday, October 25, during the 7th Edition of the Future Investment Initiative , a major forum whose theme is to highlight the impact of global dialogues in navigating today's uncertain times.

"There is no question about it," he pointed out, Africa has a potential market which is not a simple issue, citing that the vice would create problems not just on the continent but elsewhere. On the current coup d'état, Kagame urged world leaders to go beyond the coups and find the possible cause and their origins even when they seem to be military yet some are civilians and there is an interconnection of causes, arguing that it should not be coined in Africa, especially particularly in the context of colonization.

In Rwanda, Kagame said;"We have tried to invest, first of all, in people. Anything that empowers people and allows people to raise themselves to a high level, that's what we start with." On human capital and gender equality, Kagame said it is simple logic to empower women because 52 per cent of Rwanda's population are women.
