Rwanda Election: President Paul Kagame Poised Extend Rule With No Opposition | Firstpost Africa

Rwandans are preparing to vote in an upcoming election that is expected to secure another term for President Paul Kagame. Kagame has been holding successful campaign rallies while his opponents, Frank Habineza of the Democratic Green Party of Rwanda and independent candidate Philippe Mpayimana, have struggled to gain significant traction. The upcoming election on July 15 is significant as it will be the first time that individuals born during Kagame's presidency will be eligible to vote. A total of 9.5 million Rwandans are registered to vote, with approximately 2 million being first-time voters, according to the electoral commission.
