Must Rwanda wait until it has solved every problem before it is allowed to dream bigger? Why should Rwanda’s ambition be placed on trial? The criticism about rwanda hosting F1 and the argument that “Rwanda has more urgent priorities” is so absurd and it presents a problem that does not necessarily exist. In fact, I see it as jealous disguised as criticism. 1. Yes, “Rwanda, like every other country, has multiple priorities . However, Rwanda hosting F1 doesn’t necessarily stop it from investing in education or healthcare for example. The two are not mutually exclusive. It can address present challenges while strategically positioning itself for future opportunities. Every country has competing demands, and development requires strategic decisions about how to balance both immediate needs with future opportunities. 2. Who decides what is urgent for Rwanda? Rwanda/Rwandans have every right to decide what’s urgent to them. President @PaulKagame is one of the most strategic leaders that the world has. In his speeches, he has consistently said that “ Rwanda’s geographical size should not be a measure of how far it is allowed to dream” and over the years he has executed his determination to position Rwanda as a country whose influence exceeds its geographical size . F1 returning to Africa through Rwanda should be Africa’s pride rather than being a battle ground.
