UNHCR should let Rwandan refugees return home

Rwandan refugees in Nakivale and Nshungerezi camps in South Western Uganda welcomed the decision to be repatriated but the process is taking longer than expected. They are blaming UNHCR for delaying their return home. Rwanda is today ranked among the safest and most secure countries in the world, therefore, there is no reason as to why Rwandans should be refugees when they have a home.  The country’s safety was one of the issues considered when Uganda pushed for the repatriation of over 20,000 Rwandan refugees living on their territory.
