Foreign journalist's perspective on press freedom in Rwanda

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Rwanda's much vaunted image as a beacon of progress and development in Africa is being further questioned in a book "Bad News - Last Journalists in A Dictatorship". The author, Anjan Sundaram, is a foreign journalist who wrote about his time running a training programme for local reporters in the Rwandan capital, Kigali. He reveals concerns that President Paul Kagame's grip on power may not be as positive and benevolent as often portrayed. (Photo: Courtesy of Anjan Sundaram)
