Rwanda's President Paul Kagame has secured a landslide victory with 99.18% of the vote in the recent presidential election, extending his 24-year rule. Kagame's dominance was evident in previous elections, with his share consistently above 90%. The election, where over 8.9 million voters participated, saw Kagame's closest competitor garnering only 0.50% of the votes. Despite criticism and concerns about fairness, the outcome was expected as opposition figures faced obstacles in running for office. International observers commended Rwanda for a peaceful electoral environment during the polls, with final results anticipated by July 27. Kagame's extended rule raises questions about human rights, dissent suppression, and potential impacts on regional stability.
