African Police Officers Graduate in Rwanda
A total of 35 Senior
Police officers from ten countries across the African continent received their
Post-Graduate Diplomas in Strategic Leadership and Management – a programme
delivered by the African Leadership University School of Business – in a
memorable graduation ceremony held at the Rwanda National Police College in
Ruhengeri.
The officers were from Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Lesotho, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania, and Rwanda.
The African Leadership University (ALU) was delighted to work in
partnership with the Rwanda National Police, in providing a programme that
enhances the capabilities and leadership skills of Senior Police officers and
staff across Africa.
Over the course of the eight-month programme, the officers studied the
fundamentals of leadership, and received practical training in how to
successfully manage individuals, teams, and organisations across different
levels.
Offered as part of the Police Senior Command and Staff Course, the
programme was undertaken alongside a Master’s in Peace Studies and Conflict
Transformation, co-delivered by the University of Rwanda and the Rwanda
National Police College.
Celebrating the graduates’ achievement at the ceremony were the ALU’s
Vice Chancellor and Provost, Dr Nhlanhla Thwala; its Director of Government
Relations and External Affairs, Lucie Kabatesi; and Dean of the School of
Business, Momar Dieng.
Dr Nhlanhla Thwala, Vice Chancellor and Provost of ALU, congratulated the class of 2023 on their graduation with the Post-Graduate Diploma in
Strategic Leadership and Management.
“I am particularly proud of
this class because it is the second graduating cohort in which ALU has been
involved.
“This represents a
furthering of our partnership with the Rwanda National Police as a whole but
particularly the National Police Senior Command Program.
“It is our hope that the
Pan-African relationships forged in the program across the ten countries
represented will be retained and even further strengthened,” said Thwala.
Veda Sunasse, CEO of ALU, also congratulated each of the officers who completed their Post-Graduate programme.
“Their drive to learn new
skills in leadership and management will not only enhance their own
capabilities as senior officials but will also inspire determination and
innovation in the next generation of African leaders.
“We are incredibly thankful
to have delivered this programme in partnership with the Rwanda National
Police, who share our mission of promoting lifelong learning,” said Sunasse.
ALU is a pan-African university with a state-of-the-art campus in
Kigali, Rwanda, and a college in Pamplemousses, Mauritius.
It has the vision to develop the next generation of leaders who can transform Africa and the world and aims to develop 3 million ethical and entrepreneurial African leaders by 2035.
