The Rwandan military has labeled as “fake news” a statement circulating online which falsely claimed that President Paul Kagame’s health was in critical condition.
The origin of the statement remains unclear, but it emerged following widespread speculation about President Kagame’s health, particularly after nearly three weeks without any public appearances.

Taarifa, a Rwandan news outlet, quoted government spokesperson Yolande Makolo, who reassured the public by stating that there is no cause for concern. “The President is doing well and is simply taking regular rest,” she said.
