Rwanda : Nyaruguru District Triples Efforts In Realizing The 2011-2012 Performance Contract Pledges

Nyaruguru , in Southern Rwanda, hails team spirit for improving the district’s performance in the 2011-2012 performance contracts. Nyaruguru ranked 29^th,  among the other district of Rwanda.

Nyaruguru district Mayor, François Habitegeko, disclosed the information last Thursday, at the sidelines of a one-day meeting at Kigali Serena Hotel, to release – among others − results on how Rwanda’s 30 districts achieved the 2011-2012 performance contracts, in the presence of Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame.

“I thank all the district personnel for the team spirit that has characterized us. We have done the best we could, but we have to move a step further [in the 2012-2013 performance contracts], said Mayor Habitegeko.

In a nutshel, Nyaruguru district has performed better than in the 2010-2011 year of performance contracts when it came in the 29^th position, having now moved three places better to be in the 26^thposition out of 30 districts across the country. And this year, the district average mark score [for all 30 districts] stands at more than 80%, far better than in the 2010-2011 performance contracts.

But worse still, Nyaruguru has ranked the last out of eight districts making up the Southern Province of Rwanda, that is, respectively, Kamonyi district in the second place countrywide, Huye in the fourth, Gisagara in the eighth, Muhanga in the twelfth, Ruhango in the fourteenth, Nyamagabe in the fifteenth, Nyanza in the twenty-second and then Nyaruguru district [in the 26^th position].

Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame initiated the performance contracts in 2006, as a way of boosting the country’s development through acknowledging and rewarding best performing leaders, among others.
