Rwanda’s economy grew faster in the third quarter of this year compared with the same period in 2016, lifted by an expansion in agriculture and services, the statistics office said. Third-quarter economic growth came to 8 percent year-on-year, up from 4 percent in the second quarter and 5.4 percent in the same period last year.
It said agriculture grew by 8 percent, compared with 1 percent in the third quarter of 2016, while growth in services was 10 percent versus 7 percent.
