Rwandans are participating in a presidential election on Monday, with President Paul Kagame seeking to extend his long tenure in power. The voting process saw some citizens in the capital Kigali lining up as early as 5 a.m., eager to cast their ballots.
With 9.5 million registered voters out of a population of 14 million, the election is expected to result in a victory for Kagame, who faces minimal opposition. His main challengers, Frank Habineza and Philippe Mpayimana, have struggled to gain significant support.
