Paul Kagame, the current President of Rwanda and candidate of the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), has been re-elected to office with an overwhelming majority. Kagame secured 7,099,810 votes, equivalent to 99.15% of the total votes cast, leaving his two opponents, Frank Habineza and Philippe Mpayimana, far behind.
Frank Habineza received 38,301 votes, amounting to 0.53% of the vote, while Philippe Mpayimana garnered 22,753 votes, or 0.32%.
This victory marks Kagame's fourth term as president. He has been leading the East African nation since 2000. In 2015, a referendum was held that removed the two-term constitutional limit for the presidency. Kagame subsequently won the 2017 election with 98.8% of the vote.
