“The Rwandan government has been clamping down on religious leaders and churches. Over 700 churches and 100 mosques have been ordered to close. The government has arrested six pastors for ‘illegal meetings with bad intentions.’ This is in direct contradiction to Rwandan law that states that there can be no interference with the freedom of worship.” WRNews

NewReligious, or tribal?
Rwandan President Kagame is a Tutsi. I wonder what tribe the closed churches and mosques serve, for the most part. You’d expect it to be disproportionately Hutu—they make 84% of the population vs. ~ 15% for Tutsi—and it is the Tutsi that have more Muslims, but I have to wonder whether tribal politics has a lot to do with this.
