Next, the Minister inaugurated Unama Ukore Plazza, a modern commercial building constructed by the Unama Ukore Cooperative in Gisenyi, where members engage in trade and garment tailoring. Minister Sebahizi highlighted:

"This is an example of determination and unity. From informal street trading to organized business, this cooperative shows that hard work and commitment can transform lives. Let this inspire others to formalize their businesses and contribute to the country’s growth."
