As residents of Bugesera District observed the 30th commemoration of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, on Tuesday, April 16, the umbrella organisation for Genocide survivors' associations, Ibuka, renewed its call for people to provide information about the whereabouts of bodies of victims who are yet to be found.
"We also ask Rwandans who took part in these deplorable acts, which were committed in broad daylight, to come out and reveal the whereabouts of our loved ones. They know very well where our people were dumped. It is unacceptable that the bodies of our loved ones are found accidentally when people start digging at construction sites."
Kaboyi extended his appreciation to RPF-Inkotanyi for stopping the Genocide against the Tutsi. He said that survivors have a role to play in fighting genocide denial and revisionism.Minister of National Unity and Civic Engagement Jean Damascene Bizimana said the Genocide against the Tutsi, which claimed more than one million lives, was preceded by acts that showed its planning, such as the relocation and isolation of Tutsi families from around the country to places like Bugesera.
