FAITH: Apparition and pilgrimage banned - Pas de pèlerinage ni apparition au "Rwanda de PAUL KAGAME"

Is Pilgrimage and apparition a way of worshipping poverty? In his Remarks on Wednesday 23rd August 2023, during 10-Year Anniversary of YouthConnekt held at Intare Arena in Kigali city, Rwandan President Paul Kagame said to be committed to arrest and put in jail, if it happens again, anyone who will attempt to organize and attends yearly events of pilgrim to the said” holy places”. He said «….. Let me share something else with you. Recently I learned something that really hurts. I discovered it late. I brought it to the cabinet meeting to seek clarification. Some of the ministers here present know this. I learned that thousands of young people, like you, it seems that this is done frequently, have taken to the road, on pilgrimage, to go and venerate poverty. They were lucky because I didn't know before, I was going to stop them from doing it. This practice must be stopped. A youth like you, you get up too early in the morning, and you spend 3 days on foot to go, I don't know how to qualify this, if it's in places of apparition or holy places, but places that converge with poverty, you understand! Having similarity with poverty. That is to say, you worship poverty! How can someone rush too soon to worship poverty? I thought that when you pray, and in all your supplications, you ask for wealth, to come out in poverty! or? No one can worship poverty! It does not exist. Don't ever make pilgrimages again, you've done horrible things. Those who did this did horrible things. If I hear again that this kind of practice has resumed or that someone has participated in it by any means or way, supposedly they are praying, I'll bring trucks, I'll put everyone in, and I'll lock them up somewhere. They will only be liberated when this poverty of idea and this spirit of poverty are no longer there. Do you understand? In our era, in this generation, people cannot continue to live like this. People adore or worship poverty or what can make people poor. They are not normal. May it never be repeated. Things like that, that's why, Africans, Rwandans, we are always there without doing anything. The forces we use are going in the wrong direction. People use their strength in hatred and violence only. Will worshiping poverty keep you from begging in the morning? or your country to beg because you worshipped? What will prevent your country from begging? Do we see in begging something that gives us value? Huh, it's so bad manners…. » Paul Kagame. Why PK is against people gathered together for some common events such as prayer? Paul Kagame thinks that 'old' traditions such as pilgrimage and apparition are outdated and not very relevant for our daily living, but they are still hugely important to people around the world for many reasons. Pilgrimages have a religious and spiritual purpose and they can represent important and memorable achievements in people's lives. For centuries, Christian’s eve Muslims, have gone on pilgrimage, not just to visit a place and admire its nature, art or history, but to seek and immerse themselves in the presence of God. Pilgrimage gives a huma being an opportunity to seek what our spirit longs for. Article 37 of the Rwandan Constitution of 2003 amended in 2015 and other laws prohibit religious discrimination and provide for freedom of religion and worship in Rwanda. Now the president Paul Kagame is now the one to decide how people should live and behave. What is worship? Worship is an expression of faith and the faith is the assurance of things hoped for or and the conviction of things not seen in three aspects like In Whom do we believe; what do we believe; and why do we believe. Worship among believers Worship helps believers to address their personal and unresolved issues. Here it not a matter of being poor or reach. We have seen several people even among them from rich class people, committing suicide due to life issues like anxiety, mental disorder and other saved due to such church’s events like Pilgrimages and faith. A faith or spiritual beliefs can represent an essential coping strategy for facing a severe stressful moment. Psychologists admit that the power of faith is amazingly effective in the cure of psychic diseases and creation of confidence and inner peace. What next if PAUL KAGAME resist on his statement?
