Rwandan President Paul Kagame is a proud dad after his son Ian joined the police force.
Ian Kagame is among the 568 Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) Officer Cadets who graduated days ago after completing educational courses and military training at Gako military Academy in Bugesera District.
Ian Kagame completed his course at the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, the UK’s most prestigious military college, on August 12, 2022.
The troops are trained to protect and safeguard the country but rather not to fight wars as it is presumed.
He was confirmed to the rank of 2nd Lieutenant.
In the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Space Force, a first lieutenant is a junior commissioned officer.
It is just above the rank of second lieutenant and just below the rank of captain. It is equivalent to the rank of lieutenant (junior grade) in the other uniformed services.
Ian is among the Presidential sons who are in the army.
Muhoozi Kainerugaba son of Ugandan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni is also in the army.
He has been in the armed forces for years under different capacities.
