President Paul Kagame's recent cabinet reshuffle has brought a fresh face to Rwanda's sports ministry, one that is breaking stereotypes and captivating the attention of netizens.
Aurore Mimosa Munyangaju, the newly instated sports minister, has taken over from Esperence Nyirasafari, who has moved on to the Senate.
Typically, sports ministries are dominated by male figures, but Mimosa's appointment is a departure from this norm.
What's striking about Mimosa is her undeniable good looks, which are a far cry from what most people are used to seeing in sports leadership roles.
Not only is she a stunning individual, but she also has a background in sports, having played basketball in the past.
Her 13-year-old daughter is also following in her footsteps, playing basketball and carrying on the family's sporting tradition.
As the new sports minister, Mimosa is tasked with promoting Rwanda's local heritage and collaborating with big brands, including European teams Arsenal and Paris Saint Germain.
Her appointment is a testament to President Kagame's commitment to breaking stereotypes and promoting diversity in leadership roles.
