STOCKSHOTS: Rwanda readies for 25th anniversary of 1994 genocide On 7 April, Rwanda will commemorate the 25th anniversary of the 1994 genocide. The trauma it caused is still far from being erased despite all the progress made in a quarter of a century by this small country. Like every year, Rwandan President Paul Kagame will open a 100-day national mourning period on that day, lighting a flame of remembrance at the Gisozi Memorial in Kigali, before attending a ceremony at Amahoro Stadium.
