A well-deserved title!” Kagame posted on X. Kagame has repeatedly expressed his admiration for Arsenal over the years and often comments on the club’s performances on social media. Arsenal became partners with Visit Rwanda in 2018 under a sponsorship agreement aimed at promoting Rwanda as a global tourism and investment destination through football.
