Leta ya Habyarimana yakoze itoteza rishingiye ku irondabwoko n'irondakarere mu burezi no mu kazi ku buryo buremereye.

Tariki 1 Kanama 1973, Habyarimana yatangaje programu y’imitegekere, ashimangira ko uburezi buzashingira ku bwoko no ku Turere, bishingirwaho mu gukumira Abatutsi kwiga no kubona akazi: ”Kwemererwa kwinjira mu mashiri yisumbuye bizashingira ku bwoko no ku turere.” Kuki atashingiye ku buhanga ko abana bose bari abanyarwanda?

Tariki 1 Nyakanga 1982, u Rwanda rwizihiza isabukuru y’imyaka 20 y’ubwigenge, Habyarimana yongeye gushimangira ko politiki y’irondabwoko izakomeza, agira ati: “Tumaze kubona ubwigenge, abategetsi b’u Rwanda basubiye muri politiki y’uburezi, politiki nshya igamije kwigisha no kujijura rubanda nyamwinshi”.

Tariki 29 Kamena 1983, Kongere 4 ya MRND yarabishimangiye. Iyi politiki yemezaga ko Abahutu bazajya biga ku gipimo cya 89% kandi bigakurikiza za perefegitura akibanda cyane aho avuka muri Gisenyi, kimwe na Ruhengeri na Byumba; Abatutsi bakiga ku gipimo cya 10% naho Abatwa 1%. Kuki Habyarimana atumvaga ko aba bantu bose ari Abanyarwanda bagomba kwiga bakurikije abatsinze ikizami? Ni irondabwoko n’irondakarere byamuyoboraga, nibyo byabimukoreshaga.

Urugero ni Padiri Silvio SINDAMBIWE wayoboye Kinyamateka kuva 1983, afatanya n’abanyamakuru barimo Philbert Ransoni, Anastase Seruvumba, Tewowdori Simburudali, Felisiyani Semusambi n’abandi bagaragaza akarengane kari muri iyi politiki y’irondabwoko n’irondakerere ya Habyarimana.

Mu 1987, u Rwanda rwizihiza isabukuru y’imyaka 25 y’ubwigenge, Perezida Habyarimana yavuze ko ababariye imfungwa zari zarakatiwe urwo gupfa, aziha gufungwa burundu. Yatangaje ko ari abantu 500 bikaba byerekana uburemere bw’ibihano byatangwaga na Leta ye. Mu 1988, muri Gereza ya Kigali yonyine hari hafungiwe abantu bakabakaba 200 bari barakatiwe igufungo cyo kwicwa.
U RWANDA RWAVUYE KURE.

Tariki 16 mata 1994: Padiri Seromba yanditse amateka ku isi yo kuba Padiri wa mbere wasenyeye Kiliziya ku batutsi biganjemo abakristu yari yararagijwe .

Turibuka imyaka 32 ishize Padiri Athanase Seromba wari Padiri mukuru wa paruwasi gatorika ya Nyange agiye inama n’abategetsi ba Komini Kivumu aho paruwasi gatorika ya Nyange yari yubatse bemeza kurimbura Abatutsi barenga 2000 bari bahahungiye. Mu nama yabereye kuri paruwasi ya Nyange iyobowe na Padiri Seromba yarimo burugumesitiri Grégoire Ndahimana, Umugenzacyaha wa Komini Kivumu Fulgence Kayishema, umwarimu witwa Télesphore Ndungutse, umucuruzi Gaspard Kanyarukiga n’izindi nterahamwe bacuze umugambi mubisha kandi bawumvikanaho wo kurimbura abatutsi bari bahungiye mu Kiliziya. Bemeje kubica kandi bakabica nabi, baca iteka ko n’Imana yabatanze, ko babasenyeraho Kiliziya bakazubaka indi igenewe Abahutu, ko nta mututsi ugomba gusigara I Nyange.

Kugira ngo uyu mugambi ukorwe, aba bategetsi na padiri Seromba basabye umushoferi witwa Anastase Nkinamubanzi wakoreraga isosiyete yitwa Astaldi yari ishinzwe kubaka umuhanda uhuza Rubengera na Gisenyi, kuzana Caterpillar (tingatinga) yatwaraga, akayikoresha mu kurimbura abatutsi abasenyeho Kiliziya, bamwizeza igihembo. Niko Nkinamubanzi yabikoze, padiri Seromba na bagenzi be bakoma amashyi, barangije kurimbura ingorwa z’abatutsi, basubira mu cyumba cy’uruganiriro cya paruwasi ya Nyange banywa byeri babikorera umunsi mukuru.

Padiri Athanase Seromba, Grégoire Ndahimana na Gaspard Kanyarukiga bakatiwe n’Urukiko mpanabyaha mpuzamahanga rwashyiriweho u Rwanda rwakoreraga Arusha. Padiri Seromba yahawe igihano cy’igifungo cya burundu. Kanyarukiga Gaspard yakatiwe igifungo cy’imyaka 30 naho Grégoire Ndahimana akatirwa imyaka 25. Fulgence Kayishema we ategerejwe koherezwa kuburanira mu Rwanda n’igihugu cya Afurika y’Epfo. Ubwirasi bw'aba bicanyi bwatumye mu rukiko Padiri Seromba na Ndahimana bari bakatiwe imyaka 15 y'igifungo bajurira ariko mu bushishozi bw'abacamanza b'ubujurire basanga igihano bari barahawe kidahuye n'ubukana bw'ubwicanyi bakoze, maze Padiri Seromba ahanishwa igifungo cya burundu naho Ndahimana bamwongereraho imyaka 10 ahabwa igifungo cy'imyaka 25. Iyo Seromba na Ndahimana bemera icyaha, cyangwa se bakakira igihano bari bahawe, bari kuba barakirangije. Mu gihe Padiri Seromba yari mu rukiko amaze gusomerwa ibyaha bimuhamye n'igihano ahawe cyo gufungwa burundu yishongoye ku bacamanza ababwira ngo : "De toute façon, je suis prêtre et je le resterai." Ngo "Ibyo mwakora byose ndi padiri kandi nzabihorana". Umupadiri wica, akanica akoresheje ubugome ndengakamere nk'ubwa Seromba, aba yatatiye igihango yagiranye na Kiliziya yamuhaye ubusaseridoti. Ntakwiye, ntagomba namba kubyitwaza no kubigira igikangisho.

Kayishema nawe akomeje guhanyanyaza ahimba impamvu za politiki, arwanya koherezwa mu butabera bw'u Rwanda kubazwa ubwicanyi bwa Jenoside yakoreye i Nyange, ariko amaherezo y'inzira ni mu nzu, ntabwo azahunga ubutabera iteka. Iherezo buzamugeraho. Guhakana ukuri ntibiguhanagura. N'abandi babikinisha, amateka azabigisha.

Dukomeje cyane abacitse ku icumu biciwe imiryango i Nyange muri ubwo buryo bw’ubugome budasanzwe. Harabaye ntihakabe. Ntibizongera.

UKURI KU BIBAZA AHO Profeseri BANYAGA Augustin UBA MURI AMERIKA AHURIYE NA JENOSIDE YAKOREWE ABATUTSI

Hari ibinyoma bya semuhanuka bikwizwa n’ibigarasha, interahamwe, abafana ba FDLR n’abanzi b’u Rwanda babeshya ko Profeseri Augustin Banyaga nta jenoside yakoze kuko yari mu mahanga mu 1994. Gukora jenoside ntibivuga gutema, kurasa cyangwa se kwica ukoresheje amaboko yawe no kuba wari uri cyangwa warageze aho ubwicanyi bwakorewe. Umugambi wo gukora jenoside uhera mu ngengabiterekezo itegurwa, ikigishwa, igakwirakwizwa mu bagenewe kwica ibangisha abagenewe kwicwa. Nibyo Banyaga yakoze yeruye, ku mugaragaro, mu mvugo no mu nyandiko.

1) Ibiteganywa n’amategeko mpuzamahanga

Kimwe mu byaha biranga jenoside bikubiye mu masezerano mpuzamahanga yo gukumira jenoside yo kuwa 9 Ukuboza 1948 ni:
- GUHAMAGARIRA/GUKANGURIRA ABANTU MU RUHAME GUKORA JENOSIDE (Incitation Publique et Directe à commettre le Génocide/Direct and Public Incitment to Commit Genocide)
- UBWUMVIKANE MU MUGAMBI WO GUKORA JENOSIDE (Entente en vue de commettre le génocide/Conspirancy to Commit Genocide).
Ibi byaha ntibisaba ko ubikora aba yagiye byanze bikunze aho bikorerwa. Inkiko mpuzamahanga zabyemeje kenshi ku bajenosideri.

Urugero: muri 2015 ubutabera bw’Ubudage (Stuttgart) bwaciriye urubanza abayobozi bakuru mu bya politiki ba FDLR, Dr Ignace Murwanashyaka na Straton Musoni, bahamwa n’ibyaha byakozwe na FDLR muri Kongo ku buterankunga bwa politiki n'amafranga bayihaye. Ntabwo Ignace Murwanashyaka na Straton Musoni bigeze bajya kwica no kurwana muri FDLR muri Kongo, ariko barayishyigikiye nkuko Augustin Banyaga yashyigikiye ingengabitekerezo ya MRND yo guhamagarira ikorwa rya jenoside no gukangura, gushishikariza MRND n’Interahamwe gukorera abatutsi jenoside, kurwanya amasezerano y'amahoro, akigisha umugambi wa jenoside.

2) Banyaga mu guhamagarira no gushyigikira ikorwa rya jenoside akoresheje politiki n'inyandiko

Muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika, mu mwaka wa 1992, Augustin Banyaga yashinze Ishyaka/Ihuriro yise CERCLE RWANDAIS DE REFLEXION yari afatanyije na Joseph Ntamatungiro ryari rifite icyicaro ahitwa Lemon (Washington). Abandi bari bagize Komite nshingwabikorwa b'iri Huriro ni: Judith Mukaruziga, Jeanne d’Arc Niyigena, Patel Twarabamenye, Felicien Ntawukuriryayo, Faustin Iyamuremye, Emmanuel Nyemera na Felicien Rwangano.

Muri iki gihe, benshi muri aba bantu, cyane cyane Emmanuel NYEMERA na Augustin BANYAGA ni abayoboke ba FDLR.

Iryo Huriro ryasohoye inyandiko zihamagarira urwango kuri FPR-Inkotanyi, gushyigikira ingengabitekerezo ya jenoside ya hutu pawa bigakwirakwizwa mu banyarwanda baba mu mahanga no mu Rwanda.

Ku itariki 28 Nyakanga 1992, Augustin Banyaga yandikiye Minisitiri w’Intebe, Dr Disimasi Nsengiyaremye, ibaruwa ifunguye y’urwango n’ingengabitekerezo ya Jenoside, anikoma Minisitiri w’ububanyi n’amahanga Bonifasi NGULINZIRA azira intambwe yari amaze kugeraho yo gushyira umukono ku gice cy’amasezerano y’amahoro kirebana n’isaranganya ry’ubutegetsi no kuvanga ingabo za FPR na ex-FAR.

Profeseri Banyaga yanditsemo ibitekerezo bikurikira bigaragaza ku buryo bweruye umugambi wa Jenoside, ko:
- Gusinya amasezerano y'amahoro aha FPR uburenganzira ku gihugu ari nko gutera inkota mu mugongo w’Abanyarwanda (abahutu);
- Ko amasezerano ari mabi ngo kuko yagabiye Abatutsi imyanya mu butegetsi bw’igihugu kandi batabikwiye. Yakoresheje ingengabitekerezo yise “ Tutsisation” ashimangira ko ayo masezerano atazagarura amahoro mu gihugu, ko ahubwo azatuma abaturage (abahutu) bashyira hamwe bakarwanya Inyenzi (abatutsi);
- Kuba Guverinoma ya Nsengiyaremye yaremeye ko ingabo za Ex-FAR na FPR zizavangwa ni ikosa rizateza imidugararo mu gihugu (Jenoside);
- Kuvanga ingabo bigamije guha abatutsi uburyo bwo kuzakorera Abahutu Jenoside;
- Ntibizarenza amezi umunani intambara y’amoko itabaye (Jenoside);
- Abanyarwanda bose bakunda igihugu, baba abanyenduga, abakiga, abahutu, abatwa n’Abatutsi, bagombye gushyira hamwe bakarwanya Inyenzi (abatutsi);
- Kuba Guverinoma ya Nsengiyaremye yaremeye ibyasabwe na FPR mu masezerano y’Arusha ni ugusubiza inyuma u Rwanda ho ibinyejana bitanu;
- Intambara ntishobora kuzahagarara igihe cyose Guverinoma ye ikorera inyungu z’umwanzi (abatutsi);
- Ntabwo hagombye kubaho imishyikirano igamije gucyura impunzi z’Abatutsi;
- Ikibazo cyonyine cyagombye kuganirwaho mu mishyikirano ni ikirebana n’abantu bavanywe mu byabo n’intambara, aho kugirira impuhwe impunzi z’Abatutsi zimerewe neza Iburayi n’Amerika , zitegura kwimika ubutegetsi bushingiye ku moko y’Abahima n’Abatutsi;
- Banyaga ashyigikiye ibitekerezo n'ibikorwa bya CDR bihamagarira ubumwe bw’abahutu;
- FPR si ishyaka rya politiki, ni Umutwe w’iterabwoba;
- Banyaga asoza abwira Minisitiri w’Intebe ngo uwabaha amahirwe u Rwanda rukabona undi Kayibanda!

UMWANZURO

Uhakana ko ibi bitekerezo bya Profeseri Banyaga Augustin atari ubukangurambaga bwa Jenoside arashingira kuki? Mu rukiko mpanabyaha mpuzamahanga rwashyiriweho u Rwanda, ubukangurambaga bwa jenoside nk’ubu bwahamye abicanyi benshi barimo uwari Minisitiri w’Intebe Jean Kambanda (we yanemeye iki cyaha n'ibindi 10), Augustin Ngirabatware wari Minisitiri w’igenamigambi, abayobozi ba MRND Matayo Ngirumpatse na Eduwaridi Karemera, abayobozi ba RTLM Jean Bosco Barayagwiza na Ferdinand Nahimana n’abakozi bayo Georges Ruggiu na Joseph Serugendo, Hassan Ngeze wari umuyobozi wa Kangura, umuririmbyi Simon Bikindi, Vincent Rutaganira, Jean Baptiste Gatete, Laurent Semanza, Juvénal Rugambagara, Sylvestre Gacumbitsi, n’abandi.

Utazi iya ava ntamenya iyo ajya. Kubaka ubumwe bw’abanyarwanda ntibishobora gushingira ku binyoma no kugoreka amateka. Ubumwe bw’abanyarwanda butangirira ku kumenya ibyabushenye no kubungabunga amateka y’ingengabitekerezo n’ibikorwa byabushenye. Ikiri ku isonga ku byashenye ubumwe bw’abanyarwanda ni Jenoside yakorewe abatutsi, yakozwe ivuye ku mugambi wigishijwe n’abantu b’injijuke nka ba Profeseri Augustin Banyaga, Profeseri Ferdinand Nahimana, Dr Vincent Ntezimana, Dr Sosthène Munyemana, Dr Léon Mugesera, Ir Fabien Neretse, Dr Jean de Dieu Kamuhanda, Dr Jean Berchmas Nshimyumuremyi, Dr Alphonse Karemera, Dr Eugène Rwamucyo, Dr Pierre Mugabo, Dr Clément Kayishema, Dr Célestin Higiro, Dr Charles Zirimwabagabo, n’abandi.

Harabaye Ntihakabe.

[IGIHE @IGIHE]

Minisitiri w’Ubumwe bw’Abanyarwanda n’Inshingano Mboneragihugu, Jean-Damascène Bizimana yashyize hanze ibimenyetso bigaragaza uruhare rwa Prof Banyaga Austin muri Jenoside yakorewe Abatutsi bitandukanye n’uko hari bamwe mu barwanya u Rwanda bari bamaze iminsi bamugira umwere.

Yasobanuye ko Prof Banyaga yari ashyigikiye umugambi wa Jenoside, ndetse yashishikarije Abahutu kwica Abatutsi.

[Dr. Jean Damascene BIZIMANA @DrDamascene]

Like father, like son!
@JLHaby, caught in a sadistic fantasy of resurrecting the unitary and criminal power of his father, Juvénal Habyarimana, is attempting several maneuvers aimed at sanctifying his father and his genocidal regime. The undeniable evidence proves the opposite. Let's take a brief example:

1.Juvénal Habyarimana, perpetrator of numerous state crimes from 1963 to 1990.

- December 22, 1963: Juvénal Habyarimana, the most senior Rwandan military officer who joined the army in the early 1960s, participated, under the authority of President Kayibanda, in the execution at Ruhengeri prison of 30 former chiefs and administrative officials, mostly Tutsis, but also Hutus such as Michel Rwagasana, former Secretary General of the UNAR Party (National Union of Rwanda), considered a symbol of the outlawed monarchy, demonized by the extremist PARMEHUTU party and later by Juvénal Habyarimana's MRND. This is the first known state crime committed by this very high-ranking military officer, father of Jean Luc Habyarimana.

1973-1976: After seizing power in 1973, Juvénal Habyarimana ordered the arrest and imprisonment of over 70 Hutu politicians and high-ranking officials from the central and southern regions of the country. They were held in inhumane conditions in the Gisenyi and Ruhengeri prisons. The vast majority of them were secretly murdered in prison by a group of state criminals led by Major Théoneste Lizinde, the powerful Director General of the General Intelligence Service, who reported directly to the Presidency. Lizinde and his clique acted on the orders of President Juvénal Habyarimana. The prison directors of Ruhengeri and Gisenyi, namely Théodomir Sembagare and Pierre-Désiré Cyarahani (Ruhengeri), and Joachim Ntibandeba (Gisenyi), committed acts of torture against these political prisoners.

In Ruhengeri prison, Sembagare forced inmates to pick up the excrement of other prisoners with their bare hands and then gave them a meal without allowing them to wash their hands. Since he had put them on a strict diet, they were forced to eat in this manner. As for Kayibanda himself, he was subjected to starvation and dehydration at home. He died in 1976.

In his letter published in 1991 under the title "President Habyarimana Faces His Criminal Acts," Major Lizinde indicates that among those who ordered their assassination were President Habyarimana himself, his brother-in-law Protais Zigiranyirazo, who was prefect of Kibuye and was transferred to Ruhengeri to direct these assassinations. Lizinde also mentions Colonels Elie Sagatwa, the president's private secretary, and Laurent Serubuga, deputy chief of staff of the army. During her trial, Lizinde revealed that Prefect Zigiranyirazo had facilitated the transfer of Dr. Cyprien Hakizimana to Ruhengeri in order to issue falsified death certificates and lie that these unfortunate political prisoners had succumbed to illness. Their families were never informed of the circumstances of their deaths.

2.From 1987 to 1989: A Wave of State-Sponsored Assassinations

The first of these victims was American Diane Fossey "NYIRAMACIBIRI," who had dedicated her life to gorilla conservation. She was murdered in her home on December 27, 1987. This crime was ordered by Prefect Protais Zigiranyirazo, the President's brother-in-law, in association with a gang of poachers who captured gorillas, exported them abroad, and sold them illegally for $20,000 each. Diane Fossey was aware of this state-sponsored mafia and was preparing to expose it.

This was followed by the assassination of the courageous Father Silvio Sindambiwe who, upon taking over as editor of the Catholic Church newspaper Kinyamateka in April 1980, strove to promote it by denouncing the crimes and offenses of all kinds that prevailed in the country. He was assassinated on November 7, 1989, shortly after returning from Germany where he had participated in the International Journalism Congress. During his presentation, he had denounced the injustices of the Habyarimana regime.

Other assassinations continued, including those of Member of Parliament Félicula Nyiramutarambirwa (May 10, 1989), Dr. François Muganza, and others. These individuals were Hutu from the South and Central regions of the country (Gitarama and Gikongoro).

Within the army itself, Habyarimana did not hesitate to kill high-ranking officers, the most well-known of whom was Colonel Stanislas Mayuya, killed on April 19, 1988. Other officers, from southern Rwanda, suffered the same fate, either through organized poisoning, as was the case with Lieutenant-Colonel Rwanyangasore, Major Muhirwa, and Commander Bahizi, or through imprisonment, such as Major Kambanda François, who would later be killed in the genocide.

3.Systematic and widespread massacres of the Tutsi and preparation for genocide.

The facts are legion, I will only take a few illustrative cases from the years 1993 and early 1994:
- March 7, 1993, an international commission composed of five international organizations carried out its investigations on the ground from January 7 to 21, 1993, and published a damning report highlighting the involvement of the highest authorities of the State, including President Habyarimana himself, in the preparation and execution of large-scale massacres of the Tutsi civilian population.

- On August 11, 1993, following investigations in Rwanda, the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, Mr. Bacre Wally Ndiaye, concluded that the Tutsi population was being targeted, and that this ethnic violence showed "very clearly that the victims of the attacks had been designated as targets solely because of their ethnicity, and for no other objective reason." He raised the question of genocide.

- On January 11, 1994, General Dallaire, military commander of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda (UNAMIR), sent a telegram to the UN reporting information showing that President Habyarimana's political and military entourage was planning the extermination of the Tutsi.

- Between January 19 and March 11, 1994, Lt. Nees, head of Belgian military intelligence for UNAMIR, drafted 29 reports warning of the imminent genocide against the Tutsi and massacres of Hutu democrats by the Habyarimana regime.

- On February 3, 1994, General Dallaire sent another dispatch to the Security Council showing that UNAMIR possessed clear information on the preparations for the genocide.

- On February 15, 1994, General Dallaire and Jacques Roger Booh-Booh, the UN Secretary-General's representative in Rwanda, submitted a joint request to the Security Council emphasizing the imperative and urgent need to recover the weapons distributed by the Rwandan state to the Interahamwe and Impuzamugambi militias of the ruling party, the MRND of your father, and his CDR allies.

- On February 17, 1994, UNAMIR issued a press release demanding a cessation of training provided to the Interahamwe militias, as well as the mass distribution of weapons carried out by President Habyarimana's government.

- On February 27, 1994, General Dallaire again requested authorization from the Security Council to confiscate weapons and expressed serious concerns about the widespread ethnic and political massacres underway and the preparation of even more serious killings in the near future.

Let's conclude Bwana @JLHaby:

On the dates of the preparation and perpetration of these grave acts, your father, Juvénal Habyarimana, was alive. He was in control of both political and military power in Rwanda. He personally orchestrated the ethnic and political massacres, as well as the planning of the genocide against peaceful, innocent Tutsi civilians who wanted nothing more than to live. Given these grave facts, it is important to remind you that by constantly denying the undeniable, by defending the indefensible, which is deeply embedded in the damage inflicted by your father's notoriously criminal regime, you are increasingly demonstrating your utter lack of credibility, your intellectual dishonesty, and quite simply, your lack of humanity. This is the first point of my conclusion today.

The second is just as simple and clear. Here! The one and only truth is that history will never cease to reproach your father, and rightly so, for his horrific crimes, everywhere, always, and forever. Foremost among these crimes is the planning and execution of the last genocide of the 20th century, that of the Tutsi in Rwanda. The fact that Juvénal Habyarimana died on the evening of April 6, 1994, in no way absolves him of the countless acts he committed and planned before that date. To his victims, killed by your father and his agents, in the anonymity of prisons and/or in public, from 1963 to 1994, may peace and eternal rest be with their souls. Their spilled blood will never again be forgotten, a fate Juvénal Habyarimana had hoped to impose.

27/1/2026: HASIGAYE IMINSI 5 TUKIZIHIZA UMUNSI W'INTWARI Z'U RWANDA. TWITEGURE GUTE?

TWIHE INTEGO ISUMBYE ZOSE: Niduhuze kuzirikana Intwari zacu twiyemeza ubutwari buhoraho bwo kumenya bihagije, kuvuga no gukoresha ikinyarwanda cyiboneye.

KUBERA IKI? Kuvuga neza ururimi rwacu ni intangiriro y'ubutwari ariyo ndangagaciro nini y'umuco wacu. Nta gihugu gishobora kubaho kitarangwa n'umuco. Umugani wa Kinyarwanda ubivuga neza ngo “agahugu katagira umuco karacika”. Indirimbo y’Igihugu ibishimangira igira iti: «Umuco dusangiye uraturanga, ururimi rwacu ruraduhuza ». Ikinyarwanda ni ururimi kavukire ruduhuza kuva u Rwanda rwabaho. Ni umurage wacu. Ni ikirango cy’ubunyarwanda, ishema n’ishingiro ry’Igihugu. Niyo mpamvu ari inkingi y'umuco wacu. Ni nako bizahora iteka ryose.

Itegeko Nshinga rya Repubulika y’u Rwanda riha Ikinyarwanda umwanya w’ibanze nk’ururimi rwonyine Abanyarwanda bahuriyeho, bakoresha mu buzima bwa buri munsi. Ribivuga muri aya magambo : "Dushingiye ku mahirwe dufite yo kugira igihugu kimwe, URURIMI RUMWE, umuco umwe n'amateka y'igihe kirekire dusangiye bigomba gutuma tugira imyumvire imwe y'aho tugana".

Mu bushakashatsi MINIBUMWE yakoze muri 2025 bwerekana ishusho y’ubumwe n’ubudaheranwa, Abanyarwanda bemeje ku kigero cya 100% ko bafata Ikinyarwanda nk’ipfundo ry’ubumwe bwabo n’ishingiro ndakuka ry’isano bafitanye.

Tugomba rero twese, abakuru n'abato, gukunda ikinyarwanda no kukivuga uko bikwiye. Umuhanzi Sipiriyani Rugamba yabyibukije mu ndirimbo UMUCO (1984) agira ati: “Uwanga umuco wamubyaye aba acumuye. Asa n’ishami ryihakana aho ryatoshye? Umwana mwiza ni umwe uvuga ivuko ryamubyaye, agahora arisingiza, cyo nimundeke ncurange, umuco mwiza wera iwacu, nywimike n'ejo”.

Indimi z'amahanga nazo tuzige, tuzimenye, tuzivuge neza kuko turi mu isi yafunguye amarembo, ntituri ba nyamwigendaho, ariko mbere na mbere tubungabunge ibyacu, duhereye ku rurimi rwacu. Kuruvuga neza ntibivanaho "ubusirimu".

Goma, le 8 janvier 2026

Aujourd’hui, nous rendons hommage aux civils innocents lâchement massacrés à la suite des bombardements aveugles perpétrés par les forces coalisées du régime sanguinaire de Kinshasa. Nous nous inclinons avec recueillement devant la mémoire des victimes et exprimons notre profonde compassion aux familles cruellement endeuillées.

Ces crimes odieux ne seront ni oubliés ni banalisés. L’AFC/M23 réaffirme avec fermeté son engagement indéfectible à protéger les populations civiles et à défendre leur droit fondamental à la vie, à la sécurité et à la dignité.
