Rwanda: And Then There Are 'posers'

Last week, I talked about how well dressed campus students operate. Now, you should see them when they have just bought a new outfit. They walk around campus like they are untouchable.

A student will buy the shirt from Giporoso or Nyabugogo and without a thought, wear it the very next day. This is called buy and wear. Now, you must wonder - isn't this how it is supposed to be?

These kids are allergic to such, so they hit second markets where they can bargain for a top for as low as Rwf200!
