IVAN CYOMORO — ANOTHER HEART WOUNDED BY TOM BYABAGAMBA’S TRAGEDY
Col. Tom Byabagamba’s death did not break only the hearts of his own children. It has deeply devastated Ivan Cyomoro Kagame and his siblings
Ivan grew up with Tom.
Throughout his childhood, he saw Tom beside his father—protecting President Kagame, protecting him, and protecting his siblings. To young Ivan, Tom was not simply his father’s bodyguard or military officer. He was part of the family.
When Kagame imprisoned Tom in 2014, Ivan could not understand it.
He pleaded with his father to show Tom mercy. His reasoning was heartbreaking: “I grew up seeing Tom next to you. I thought he was your younger brother. He loved you, and he loved us.”
But his father would not listen.
Imagine what that does to a child who grew up believing that loyalty meant something.
The man Ivan had watched protect his father for years was suddenly treated as an enemy. The loyalty Ivan had witnessed with his own eyes seemed to count for nothing.
And now Tom is dead.
Today, Tom’s sons are mourning their father. Ivan is reportedly grieving too—yet cannot freely walk to those young men, embrace them and mourn with them for the man who helped protect them all when they were children.
That is the tragedy people rarely talk about.
President Kagame and First Lady Jeannette Kagame should understand this: your children are watching what you do to the people who once stood beside you.
They see the broken friendships. They see former comrades imprisoned, persecuted and lost. They see families grieving.
And they carry questions that power cannot answer.
You may believe that destroying your former comrades protects your grip on power, but the consequences do not end with them. They enter your own home, wound your own children, and leave scars that power cannot heal.
Parents make their choices. Children can spend a lifetime carrying the scars.
