About FAO Internship ProgramÂ

We don’t get job and internship opportunities easily in Rwanda as it is in other countries around the world. What’s wrong with our location. Like me, I speak good French and English, Swahili and Kinyarwanda. For longtime I could not access the opportunity to talk to a mass. I work as a chauffeur, A nice one you would wish to have. Here I humbly request for a recommendation from anybody reading this. My WhatsApp and mobile number is +250784072082
