Nyagatare

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nyagatare is a city and capital of Nyagatare district in East Province, Rwanda.

The city is located at the end of a 12km spur from the Kayonza-Kagitumba road, and has grown considerably since 1994, boosted by an influx of former refugees from Uganda. It has a branch of the major Rwandan bank, BCDI, a post office, petrol station, a conference centre and termini for express buses to Kigali. There is also a newly opened university, on the site of the former Umutara polytechnic.
