Sorious Samura, an acclaimed African journalist and a witness of Sierra Leone’s civil war in 1999, investigates Rwanda’s astonishing development since the 1994 genocide. Why is Sierra Leone still in rubble whilst Rwanda has progressed so much? Sorious finds some key answers by following Rwanda’s junior football team on their way to compete in the 2011 Under-17 World Cup in Mexico.
