Rwandan President Paul Kagame has won the Rwandan elections by a landslide. Kagame got 99.1 % of the vote. This extends his 24 year rule by another five more years. 

The President was running against a few candidates who shared 1 % of the vote amongst each other. This are environmentalist Frank Habineza and ex-jourrnalist Philippe Mpayimana.

Kagame has thanked all those who voted for him and as well Rwandan Patriotic Front ( RPF) for the great result. 

“These are not just figures, even if it was 100%, these are not just numbers. [They] show the trust, and that is what is most important," Mr Kagame said.

Kagame has won more than 90% of the vote in2003, 2010 and 2017. He made changes in the constitution introducing 5 year term limits but this could see him rule till 2034. Kagame has been credited for bringing unity, peace and stability. His critics though accuse him of dictatorship. Rwandan government has denied any wrong doing.
