Chaka Chaka appeals for quake victims

The New Times "KIGALI - South African music legend Yvone Chaka Chaka has saluted the resilience of the victims of this month’s earthquakes in the western provincial districts of Rusizi and Nyamasheke. Chaka Chaka, who was earlier this week in Rwanda in her capacity as a Unicef goodwill ambassador, said those displaced and heavily affected by the earthquakes had shown determination to recover from the disaster. Two strong quakes hit the two districts hours apart on February 3 leaving close to forty people dead and destroying property whose value the Government has put at over Frw5 billion. Another person died days later after a third quake hit the same region."
