The Human Rights Foundation is urging @DojaCat to cancel her #MoveAfrika Kigali show sponsored by the regime of RwandaтАЩs warmongering dictator Paul Kagame.
Doja Cat would be headlining a party organized by @GlblCtzn in partnership with KagameтАЩs regime just two weeks after the US imposed sanctions on RwandaтАЩs army and senior Rwandan officials for their role in fueling a bloody war and one of the worldтАЩs worst humanitarian crises in Democratic Republic of Congo.
Doja Cat would follow John Legend, who headlined the 2025 #MoveAfrika Kigali concert amid public outcry as Kagame exploited the concert to grandstand and project a deceptive image of openness and progress.
Legend performed after Nigerian Grammy-winning artist @temsbaby cancelled her show in Kigali after Rwandan troops and their sanctioned proxy militia M23 illegally seized eastern DRCтАЩs two largest cities and imposed a reign of terror, exploitation, and plunder marked by extrajudicial killings, massacres and rapes, forced recruitment, and the use of child soldiers.
The #MoveAfrika tour claims to promote the development of local entertainment industries, but Rwandan artists who have spoken freely and criticized injustices have suffered imprisonment, censorship, enforced disappearances, and even death. They include the presently jailed fashion designer Moses Turahirwa, the forcibly disappeared poet Innocent Bahati, and the late popular gospel singer Kizito Mihigo.
