On behalf of the Rwanda Karate Federation, it is my pleasure to invite you
to the 17th edition of the African Karate Championships Seniors and 9th
African Karate Championships Juniors which will be held from August 26 to
September 02, 2018.
The Rwanda Karate Federation is proud to host this Seniors and Juniors
UFAK Championship competition and the organizing committee will do its
outmost to offer the best facilities in order to make this a most successful
and memorable event.
I am looking forward to meeting you all soon in Kigali!
Respectfully,
THEOGENE UWAYO President of Rwanda Karate Federation
Dear Sports Friends,
For a week, the eyes and heart of all karatekas members of UFAK, will be turned to the
beautiful city of KIGALI, capital of RWANDA. It is also the moment to celebrate through
karate, the cultural diversity and the vitality of the Rwandan people.
I would like to take this opportunity to salute the work done by the Rwandan Karate Federation
which, through this event, reassured Mr. the Prime Minister and the Minister of Sports and
Culture on the warm welcome of the African sport youth from North to South in the earth
Rwanda.
The president of the WKF Mr. ANTONIO has set the course: The Tokyo 2020 Olympic
Games will be organized with Africa. Our objectives are clear: the presence of our karatekas to
these games that accept for the first time in decades, the karate.
You can count on the values that have been mine forever and are also those of the team that
surrounds me.
We are reassured by the stability of Rwanda and want, through these 9th and 17th Junior and
Senior Karate Championships, to accompany the dream of the president of Rwanda, First
athlete, his Excellency Paul KAGAME, who wants among other things, to make his country, a
reference of major sporting events.
As the president of UFAK, I first address you, the athletes, who are here today. What the
public wants to see are spectacular gestures. Fight with pride; wear high the colors of your
country, all in respect of the rules, with respect for the opponent, in a Fair Play spirit.
Make us vibrate.
Thank you
Mohamed Tahar MESBAHI
UFAK President.
