"Few months into the operation of Inkanda House, many women came into this fashion career and I was amazed to see them grow. However, they had to keep pushing as well and this was my advice to them. So, that is why the " NDABAGA " collection is named in the memories of those all Rwanda women fashion designers who made it and still making it to building our fashion industry and keeping it alive" said Muhire
