Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>It is around 7:30p.m and students are as busy as bees revising for their end-of-term exams. \u201cIt is a very busy time for us,\u201d says one of the two students who are reading under an outdoor light bulb behind their S4 classroom, a few metres from a graveyard.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese were students like us, we are remembering them this week,\u201d she says pensively, citing the remains of victims of a horrific attack on this school a quarter century ago.<\/p>\n

The yard is the final resting place of Chantal Mujawamahoro (Senior Six) and Valens Ndemeye (Senior Five), two of the bravest students this country has ever produced.<\/p>\n

Along with their S6 and S5 classmates, the student heroes stood up to hatred and division, with seven of them paying the ultimate price. Nestled in the heart of one of Rwanda\u2019s most mountainous regions, in Ngororero District, Ecole Secondaire de Nyange represents the worst and best of Rwanda.<\/p>\n

It was the scene of the deadly attack by the defunct FAR soldiers and the genocidal Interahamwe militia on the night of March 18, 1997. Mujawamahoro and Ndemeye died on the spot during the cold-blooded attack, along with five other students [Sylvestre Bizimana (S6), Beatrice Mukambaraga (S6), S\u00e9raphine Mukarutwaza (S5), and H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Benimana, who was in S5].<\/p>\n

Phanuel Sindayiheba goes back in time as he explains the horrific events that unfolded in the former Senior Six classroom-turned exhibition room on the fateful night of March 18, 1997.<\/b><\/p>\n

The students were killed when the abacengezi (infiltrators) opened fire and hurled grenades into students after the latter famously refused to separate themselves along ethnic lines.<\/p>\n

The death toll from the incident would rise to seven three years later when Ferdinand Niyongira succumbed to internal wounds caused by grenade explosions. He was in S5 at the time of the attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is where I sat when we first heard gunshots in the compound,\u201d Phanuel Sindayiheba, then a S6 student, recalls the distressing events of that fateful night 25 years ago. He sat next to a window.<\/p>\n

First, they heard gunshots from a distance. Then in the school compound. It was around 8p.m and students were busy reviewing their notes in their respective classes.<\/p>\n

\u2018No place to hide\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was dark outside and there was no place to hide and no escape door,\u201d Sindayiheba says, pausing briefly as he reflects on the traumatic experience that unfolded in his classroom 25 years ago today.<\/p>\n

Names of the victims of the barbaric attack on the Ngororero-based government-aided school 25 years ago today.<\/b><\/p>\n

And, before long, the moment they had dreaded arrived. Three armed men stormed their classroom, unannounced, brandishing weapons. \u201cIt was a chilling moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey wore a combination of military and ordinary clothing, with guns, grenades, one of them carried a huge sword,\u201d he recollects. When Sindayiheba, then aged 20, glanced at the attackers he reckoned they were in serious trouble.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey stood in front of us before the tallest of them, who I believe was their leader, asked in a menacing voice whether we knew them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo,\u201d the fear-stricken students responded.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said \u2018you\u2019ll know us, and if you cooperate and make our work easy you\u2019ll be fine.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cHe then ordered that we separate along ethnic lines,\u201d he recounts, walking us through the events of that traumatic night. \u201cThey said, \u2018Tutsi to our right, Hutu to the left.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

By then, he says, the students had frantically ducked under their wooden school benches absorbed in desperate prayer or screaming and pleading for dear life.<\/p>\n

Then, suddenly, in a show of the highest degree of bravery and fortitude, Chantal Mujawamahoro, defiantly retorting, \u201cTwese Turi Abanyarwanda,\u201d which translates to \u2018We Are All Rwandans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt took them by surprise, they didn\u2019t expect that kind of response,\u201d says Sindayiheba. Mujawamahoro, who was 22, lay under her desk on the front row, face to face with the insurgents. The insurgents\u2019 anger boiled over, he says. \u201cTheir leader signalled to them and they all walked out with great rage.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat followed we will never forget,\u201d he says, pointing to the spot where ended up lying in a pool of blood that night. The attackers immediately shattered the glass of the window next to Sindayiheba\u2019s seat and then threw grenades in the class.<\/p>\n

Grenade explosions, gunshots<\/b><\/p>\n

The first one injured Angelique Nkunduwera and C\u00e9sar Bavakure, he recalls. Soon, he too found himself in excruciating pain after sustaining serious back injuries in subsequent explosions.<\/p>\n

The attackers were not done. They returned within moments and gave the same orders: Tutsi here, Hutu there. But Sylvestre Bizimana echoed Mujawamahoro\u2019s earlier response. We are all Rwandans, he defiantly insisted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey started shooting at us, Chantal was the first to be shot dead, then Beatrice Mukambaraga, they also killed Sylvestre and continued shooting indiscriminately,\u201d recalls Sindayiheba.<\/p>\n

Amid wails and desperation, the insurgents, perhaps thinking they had killed almost everyone in the class, suddenly left and headed straight to S5. The two rooms are about 60m apart. There, the assailants repeated the same orders they gave in S6.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey tweaked the question a little and asked students to identify Tutsi classmates. Interestingly, H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Benimana gave the same response; there are no Tutsi, no Hutu, just Rwandans.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of their tormentors immediately singled out S\u00e9raphine Mukarutwaza and said she was a Tutsi and they killed her, when H\u00e9l\u00e8ne denounced them she was also shot dead.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the assailants opened fire indiscriminately, one brave student, Valens Ndemeye, stood up and issued a rallying cry to his classmates to force their way out, rather than die one by one. The students scampered out for dear life but Ndemeye was shot and killed.<\/p>\n

Another student, Ferdinand Niyongira, suffered severe injuries and died three years later. In total, 40 students who were in the two classrooms that night survived \u2013 18 in S6 and 22 in S5. The survivors, along with their deceased colleagues, would later be conferred upon the honour of National Heroes (Imena category). One of them, Ananie Sibomana, has since died of unrelated causes.<\/p>\n

But how did young learners in two separate classes give the same defiant message to the attackers? \u201cWe did not communicate but we had learnt from the bad history of Nyange about the consequences of division and government officials and school authorities always encouraged us to embrace and love one another because we are all Rwandans,\u201d says Sindayiheba.<\/p>\n

Nyange is the same place where a Catholic priest, Athanase Seromba, used a bulldozer to raze down his own church, killing 3000 people inside during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. Aside from the students who lost their lives during the attack, the assailants also killed a guard as they entered the hilltop compound.<\/p>\n

It remains unclear how many insurgents were involved in the deadly attack, which lasted between 10-15 minutes. The assailants fled when government soldiers from a nearby military base arrived.<\/p>\n

The insurgents are thought to have come from a hideout in Mukura forest, with support from local collaborators. At the time, the new Rwanda Patriotic Front-led government in Kigali was battling an insurgency that had spread across large swathes of northern and western regions.<\/p>\n

The infiltrators had crossed back into Rwanda from the Congo where they had arrived with their weapons when the genocidal government in Kigali fell in 1994. More than a million Rwandans lost their lives during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.<\/p>\n

At the height of the insurgency, between 1997 and 1999, the infiltrators used to attack civilians, public transport, and destroy local government offices and other infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Some of their top commanders would later be captured or persuaded to surrender and were reintegrated into the military or community. \u2018A shining light\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cNyange bears deep scars from the insurgency,\u201d says Father Rene Claude Hakizimana, the head teacher of the government-aided Catholic school.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, we continue to be inspired by the courage and unity of those students. They have become a shining light for us all.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe commemoration will stir our deepest emotion but it\u2019ll be a proud moment to look back at the heroism manifested by schoolchildren here,\u201d he adds, asked about the memorial events due Friday and Saturday this week.<\/p>\n

The story of Nyange school maybe a symbol of Rwanda\u2019s tragic past, but, most importantly, it represents our heroism, resilience and unity as a nation, says Sindayiheba.<\/p>\n

For Fr Hakizimana, who was himself a student at Petit Seminaire Saint Piex de Nyundo in Rubavu at the time of the attack, Nyange heroes \u201ctaught us that heroism is not about age or gender or where you come from.\u201d<\/p>\n

Claudien Harelimana, a Math and Physics teacher who arrived at E.S Nyange almost a year after the deadly attack, recalls that the school continued to suffer at the hands of infiltrators even after. He recalls one predawn attack on September 5, 1998 which killed three people, including interim head teacher Sixfield Dukizwenayo, Leonard Gakote (school bursar) and Valens Bwandagara, a Biology and Chemistry teacher.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe killers did not achieve their objective,\u201d he observes. \u201cAt the end of the day, Nyange emerged even stronger, this is a proud legacy that we deeply cherish.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ange Shimo Igeno, a S4 student offering History, Economics and Literature at the school, looks back with pride. \u201cThe solidarity and unity demonstrated by the students is something that inspires us every single day, I want to walk in their footsteps.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will always remember them,\u201d adds Kelly Shami, a Senior One student at the school. \u201cThey showed extraordinary courage.\u201d<\/p>\n
