Ecole Rwandaise Intwali Kigali was built by Rwanda’s Muslim community in 1955 and opened in 1957 despite colonial opposition. After visiting the school, King Mutara III Rudahigwa praised the community’s courage and called them “Intwali,” meaning “Heroes.” The school later adopted the name in his honour and was returned to the Muslim community in 1997.
