U Rwanda ruri mu nzira nziza…
Kugira ngo igihugu icyo ari cyo cyose kigere ku byo cyagennye, bisaba ubushake bwa Politiki ariko buherekejwe n’ibikorwa.
Leta y’u Rwanda yashyizeho gahunda zihamye kandi zirambye zo gutuma abana b’abakobwa biga nka basaza babo, kandi bakiga amashuri ya siyansi n’ubumenyi ngiro.
N’ubwo hakiri urugendo kugira ngo intego y’u Rwanda mu kuzamura uburezi ku bakobwa igerweho nk’uko bimeze kuri basaza babo, hari ibyakozwe kandi byiza.
Mu ijambo Perezida w’u Rwanda Paul Kagame yagejeje ku bandi banyacyubahiro bari bitabiriye Inama yigaga ku ikoreshwa ryagutse ry’umuyoboro mugari wa murandasi yiswe Building The Bandwidth, yabaye Taliki 22, Mutarama, 2022, yavuze ko kwiga muri iki gihe abantu batemerewe kwegerana kubera icyorezo COVID-19 byabaye ihurizo rikomeye ku bantu bose muri rusange ariko by’umwihariko ku bakobwa.
Ibi ngo byatewe n’uko kwiga muri buriya buryo bihenze kuko bisaba ikoranabuhanga ryifashisha murandasi kandi ngo ibikoresho byaryo ndetse nayo ubwayo bikaba bihenze.
Yagize ati: “ Dufite inshingano yo guharanira ko abakobwa bacu na bashiki bacu badasigara inyuma cyane mu gukoresha murandasi, tugakora uko dushoboye tukabafasha kuyibona itabahenze.”
Yabwiye abari bamuteze amatwi ko u Rwanda rwatangiye kandi ruzakomeza Politiki yo kuzamura imyigire y’umukobwa cyane cyane ifitanye isano n’ikoranabuhanga.
Yabahaye urugero rw’Ishuri ryigisha abakobwa gukora porogaramu za mudasobwa riba mu Karere ka Nyabihu ryitwa Rwanda Coding Academy, 50% y’abanyeshuri baryigamo bakaba ari abakobwa.
Si iri shuri gusa u Rwanda rufite , ahubwo hari n’ibigo byigisha imibare, siyansi n’ikoranabuhanga biri ku rwego mpuzamahanga nka African Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University-Africa, Kaminuza nkuru y’u Rwanda n’ibindi.
