  4. Cette émission est animé par des journalistes de Radio Rwanda aussi bien que de la RTLM. La première partie de la cassette est animé par un journaliste non-identifié, Hyacinthe Bicamumpaka et Jean Baptiste Murutampunzi tous originaire de la Radio Rwanda. Cette première partie s'adresse surtout aux événements des derniers jours qui ont produit de nombreuses "victimes innocentes." Ces journalistes, à l'aide de communiqués officiels, demandent à la population de retrouver le calme tout en restant vigilant. Parmi d'autres, les Belges et la MINUAR sont dénoncés d'avoir aidé le FPR qui est dénoncé à son tour d'avoir repris les hostilités. Par contre, la communauté internationale est louée pour avoir condamné les actions du FPR. Jean Kamband a suit ces premiers journalistes avec un discours qui explique que "les moments difficiles" qui caractérisent le Rwanda sont le résultat de la peine et fureur de la population à cause d ela mort de leur Président Habyarimana. Lui aussi dénonce le FPR ainsi que Twagiramungu. Il ajoute que la population doit rester calme toute en doublant de vigilance. Bemeriki passe au micro ensuite et accuse les Belges d'avoir assassiné Habyarimana tout en accusant la MINUAR de négligence. Bemeriki est suivit d'un entretien entre Ruggiu et Thomas Kabonake, un journaliste avec "L'Echo des Mille Collines." Les deux hommes insistent que le FPR préparait cette guerre depuis six mois et qu'ils essaient maintenant de s'infiltrer parmi la population histoire de les confondre ainsi que les soldats du FAR. Kabonake ajoute que le FPR aurait payé certaines agences de presse étrangères pour qu'elles publient de fausses informations. Kantano prend la suite et lance une attaque contre Shyaka de la Radio Muhabura. Il ajoute que la RFI, la BBC et la RTDF sont tous coupables d'avoir diffusé de faux reportages. Il conclut son monologue avec des incitations à la population de rester courageux et vigilant. Un journaliste non-identifié suit avec des nouvelles des combats à Kigali. Nsengiyumva prend la relève et s'entretient avec Froduald Karamira de la MDR. Celui-ci se contente de dire qu'ils sont fiers du comportement de la population tout en dénoncant les actions des Inkotanyi. La cassette se termine avec Kantano qui déclare que les Rwandais sont en train de gagner la guerre déclenchée par les Inkotanyi. Il traîte les Inkotanyi de "maigrichons" et dit qu'ils étaient "animés" par l'orgueil au début de la guerre.

  4. Cette cassette commence avec un entretien entre Bamwanga et Niyitegeka, Ministre de l'Information. Niyitegeka maintient que les Inkotanyi sont pourchassés parout dans la ville de Kigali. Un journaliste non-identifié intervient pour annoncer les résultats d'une réunion concernant la sécurité de Kigali: la population doit se mettre à défendre sa propre sécurité, des patrouilles nocturnes seront de rigeur dorénavant . . . L'entretien de Niyitegeka continue. Celui-ci déclare que: (1) la Belgique est impliquée dans les attaques du FPR, (2) la population doit veiller contre l'infiltration des Inkotanyi, (3) le FPR n'a aucune raison de ne pas reconnaître le nouveau gouvernement Rwandais. Karamira suit l'interview avec un monologue qui rapporte sur les événements de Kigali. Il avertit le FPR que les rumeurs propagées par les Inkotanyi risque de faire massacrer tous les Tutsi. Kabendera passe au micro ensuite pour lire le journal national. Il annonce que: (1) des blancs se trouvent parmi les forces du FPR, (2) les Inkotanyi ont l'usage de l'équipement Ugandais, (3) les Inkotanyi ont commis de nombreuses atrocités à Kigali, mais ils se font quand même pourchassés par les forces Rwandaises. Venuste Bahiyize prend le micro et continue les même thèmes. Il ajoute que le FPR essaie d'introduire des complications pour éviter les négociations. La cassette se termine avec l'interview d'un soldat Inkotanyi par le Major Gérard Ntamagezo de la FAR. L'entretien révèle que les Inkotanyi sont coupables d'avoir tué des membres du CDR. Le soldat ajoute que de son avis le deux partis (le FPR et le gouvernement Rwandais) devraient cesser la guerre et prendre leurs places à la table de négociations.

  4. The first part of the broadcast consists of a Gahigi interview of Shyirambere Barahinyura who blames Tutsis for the rise of ethnic tensions. He goes on to explain that the Inkotanyi are not Rwandans and have enlisted the help of both the Ugandans and Belgians in their war effort. Barahinyura then launches into a tirade against the new government accusing them of maintaining a harmful silence in the face of the Inkotanyi's attacks which will result in the extermination of Rwandans. Gahigi follows the interview with a short monologue accusing the Inkotanyi of committing a number of atrocities.

  4. Side A of the tape begins mid-sentence. Journalist Hyacinthe Bicamumpaka (1) reports on the Defense Minister's praise of the population's "bravery" and patriotism in helping the army, (2) suggest that the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) is receiving logistical and material assistance, such as helicopters, from foreign countries, (3) claims that in the north and in Kigali the RPF is now "infiltrating to reach places that it could not conquer by arms . . ."
  5. Bicamumpaka continues with a summary on the various options under discussion by the UN Security Council.
  6. After a break in the tape, Bicamumpaka praises the "courage" of the Rwandan people following the "assassination of the Chief of our State by criminals." The Reporter then introduces his interviewee, Eliezer Niyitegeka, Minister of Information.
  7. Niyitegeka explains (1) that cell leaders who "finish their duty" receive rewards from the government, (2) that cell leaders are in a position to "ensure security" by organizing the population to "conduct patrols" and "fight against and denounce the enemy to the authorities." Niyitegeka also (3) stresses that the government has always needed the cell leaders in this capacity.
  8. Niyitegeka continues by saying (1) that the Rwandan army is fighting against the "enemy," (2) that the "enemy" violates the population's rights by shooting at innocent people and burning them alive in their houses, (3) that the population should continue fighting alongside the soldiers and in their place against the "small Inkotanyi," and (4) that the population should do this with whatever weapons it has—spears, bows, and arrows.
  9. Following Bicamumpaka's mention of "Inkotanyi wickedness," Niyitegeka (1) suggests that 3,400 of the RPF's 4,000 soldiers in Kigali are either infiltrators or spies, (2) asserts that in Gikondo and Nyabarongo, Inkotanyi have killed innocent people, (3) and that Inkotanyi trained by RPF soldiers encircle civilian families at night and throw grenades at them.
  10. In response to a question about Muhabura and Bujumbura Radio, Niyitegeka denies the "enemy's" claims regarding refugees and the fleeing of top government ministers.
  11. The reporter then asks Niyitegeka to respond to RPF appeals to the population to fight against the "government of killers." Niyitegeka denies the charges and claims that in Kigali only RPF soldiers were killed, and that this was after they infiltrated the Presidential Guard compound. Niyitegeka admits that the Presidential Guard was responsible for violence in the immediate wake of the President's assassination but asserts that this violence did not come on orders from the army, but as a result of the Presidential Guard's justifiable "anger and fury" at the murder of their President.
  12. Niyitegeka then explains the Inkotanyi's motives for violence: they are furious because they mistakenly believed that assassinating the President would allow them to "enthrone" their own leader.
  13. Niyitegeka's final remarks regard the RPF's alleged unwillingness to sign a cease-fire or abide by the Arusha accords.
  14. Following the interview, there is a report on the death of Major General Nsabimana Déogratias — he was on Habyarimana's plane — and the cabinet's choice for replacement, Colonel Bizimungu Augustin. The journalist explains that promotions in the army are based on soldiers' "competence, work, courage at work and at the front."
  15. Tape stresses need for population to show its "courage" by collaborating with the army and local officials in "ensuring security " against the "enemy."
  16. Side B is blank
  17. In an interview with Hyancinthe Bicamumpaka, Elieser Niyitegeka (Minister of Information) lauds the population's bravery in fighting alongside the army and accuses "Inkotanyi" of atrocities which violate the population's rights.

  4. This broadcast begins with a series of news bulletins. They are followed by Nsengiyumva's interview of Froduald Karamira of the MDR. Karamira addresses the people of Kigali and instructs them to assist the Army by carrying out their assigned duties and staying within their respective quarters. He goes on to say that the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) has infiltrated itself into the civilian population which accounts for the deaths of so many non-soldiers. Major General Bizimana's speech is then broadcasted. He makes a call to Rwandans to respect their local authorities. Nizeyimana then gives an update on the war which includes a direct call against Mutarekanwa, a barrister in the Rugenge sector.

  4. Cette cassette commence avec un discours du Président Sindikubwabo. Il demande à la population de ne pas permettre à l'ennemi de semer la discorde parmi eux. Il demande aussi aux sevices adminstratives de suivre le problème de sécurité de très près. Niyitegeka annonce ensuite que le Préfet de Butare est désormais remplcé par Sylvain Nsabimana. L'Archevêque de Kigali prend la parole et déclare que les attaques du FPR sont la cause de la discorde entre les Hutu et Tutsi. Un journaliste non-identifié annonce ensuite l'installation des barrières et l'instauration despatrouilles nocturnes pour empêcher l'infiltration des "malfaiteurs." La cassette se termine avec une discussion entre Mukarutamu, Murego, du MDR; Mugenzi, du PL; Nsengiyumva, du PSD et Ngirumpatse, du PSD. Les thèmes de la discussion sont: (1) cette guerre est le travail d'un groupe de réfugiés de la révolution de 1959 qui n'ont pas changé de mentalité et veulent absolutement accéder au pouvoir, (2) ils veulent restaurer la monarchie de leurs ancêtres, (3) il est dangereux d'ignorer l'ethnie, il faut accepter qu'il existe un problème d'ethnie, (4) le FPR a compris que l'instauration des Accords d'Arusha ne leur permettrait pas de régner seul donc ils ont préféré la guerre.

  4. Side A consists of a discussion hosted by Agensta Mukarutama featuring Murego, Ngirumpatse, Nsengiyumva, and Mugenzi.
  5. Murego begins with a monologue arguing, (1) that people are beginning to recognize that the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF)'s goal is to return Rwanda to its pre-revolutionary time in which "some people commanded . . . and others obeyed," (2) that the RPF was deluded and "made a mistake" in thinking that it could dominate as before, (3) that Rwandans have learned their history and are "saying 'no'" to a repetition of history and are "resisting en masse" the RPF's attempt to "'live handsomely at the expense of his subordinates,'" (4) and that "Rwandans will never again…be a people of slaves."
  6. Agenesta Mukarutama then continues along the same lines suggesting that the RPF has brought the current hardship upon itself, having fallen "victim to its [own] illusions," and that the "Tutsi" could have predicted that this "socio-political disaster" would follow from their attempt to bring back apartheid.
  7. Murego then asserts that, unsatisfied with the right of return offered by the Arusha Accords, the RPF wanted "conquest and revenge," wanted "to massacre their fellows [and] enslave a people who has said 'no' to slavery."
  8. Mukarutama then introduces Ngirumpatse, MRND President, who argues (1) that it would be a "mistake" to think the "Revolutions [of 1959] was finished once and for all," (2) that in this respect, the Arusha Accords were an exceptional attempt on the part of Rwandans to prevent a repetition of history.
  9. Ngirumpatse continues by stressing the exceptional generosity of the Arusha Accords and suggesting that the RPF's stubbornly monarchist desire for domination prevents it from accepting these accords.
  10. Ngirumpatse then asserts that the future of the Arusha Accords depends on the RPF and that as long as it continues to "provoke war" (1) Rwandans will defend themselves, (2) that the RPF's attacks are making Ngirumaptse fear the day when the "minority" sends the "majority of the population" "to the bush," (3) and that this fear explains the desire to see "the minority . . . deleted from the face of the country."
  11. Nsengiyumva then echoes Ngirumpatse's appeal to the RPF to abide by the Arusha Accords.
  12. In an exchange with Mukarutamu, Mugenzi then suggests (1) that both the RPF and the international community were "warned" of the "disaster" that could ensue if the RPF did not abide by the Arusha Accords and so are "responsible" for what has happened, (2) and that negotiations have been made even more difficult by the President's "assassination" and the "fear" and "fury" that it has generated among the Rwandan people.
  13. Next, Ngirumpatse defends the Rwandan government against charges that it is constitutionally invalid. In the course of his defense, Ngirumpatse again refers to RPF "illusions."
  14. Mugenzi then suggests (1) that the international community is largely "responsible" (this word is repeated many times) for the "socio-political disorder" that some journalist call "barbarity." (2) that the international community was "responsible" for allowing the unchecked "infiltration of RPF agents and soldiers in different quarters of Kigali," (3) that the President's assassination by the RPF bears witness to the UNAMIR's faulty surveillance, (4) that he, Mugenzi, warned several UN ambassadors that their treatment of the RPF was unacceptable and threatened to bring about events for which the UN would be "responsible."
  15. Repeating the word "responsibility," Mukarutamu asks Ngirumpatse to say more about the Belgian contingent's role.
  16. Ngirumpatse "denounces" the international community's role in the "disaster," alleging that in the UNAMIR and Belgian controlled regions of Kirambo and Mutura the RPF was allowed "to kill the population," including politicians like Gatabazi Felicien and Bucyana.
  17. Transmission identity needs to be confirmed
  18. In this round table discussion hosted by Agensta Mukarutama featuring Murego, Ngirumpatse, Nsengiyumva, and Mugenzi, the participants discuss RPF plans to return Rwanda to its pre-revolutionary state in which the minority enslaved the majority. The speakers suggest that both the RPF and the international community were warned about the consequences of an RPF attack and so are now responsible for Rwanda's "socio-political disaster."

  4. Continuing the discussion that ends side A, Ngirumpatse (1) suggests that the Belgians collaborated in the President's assassination, (2) asserts Belgians were seen fighting on the side of the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) and firing at Rwandan soldiers and (3) concludes that the Belgians and UNAMIR bear "responsibility" for the "disaster."
  5. In response, Mukarutamu says it is "curious that Belgium gets bogged down every time there are problems between Hutus and Tutsis."
  6. Murego explains that the UN is "responsible" for the situation in Rwanda because (1) it favored the RPF, (2) allowed the RPF to commit assassinations, (3) was insensitive to the rights of "the Rwandan people."
  7. Murego goes on to suggest that (1) the Belgians act as though they wish "to conquer the country again, (2) that though they may soon leave, this does not "cancel the judgment" made upon them, (3) that some Belgians have decided to side "with the RPF to harm Rwanda and the Rwandans," (4) that some of these Belgians might have been killed in a fire fight. Murego concludes by saying that "Rwanda became an independent country that nobody can invade."
  8. Responding to a further question about the role of the Belgians, Ngirumpatse suggests (1) that Belgians think of Rwandans as exceedingly polite and try to take advantage of this, (2) that some Rwandan political parties tried to strengthen Belgium's influence in Rwanda, (3) that if Rwandan's aren't more careful people will confuse their "docility" with a lack of self-determination, (4) and that submitting to the RPF "hands and feet tied" will bring not bring prosperity to Rwandans. Ngirumpatse concludes by suggesting that Rwandans should be more like the Roman emperor who understood that it was better to be feared than liked.
  9. Next, in an exchange with Mukarutama, Ngirumpatse discusses Ugandan reaction to the current events, charging that Museveni (1) helped the RPF wreak havoc in Kigali and elsewhere, (2) and that he did not respect or understand that Rwandan people had killed because of anger over their President's assassination. Ngirumpatse also criticized the hypocrisy of the international community because it does not condemn the human rights violations perpetrated in Uganda. Finally, Ngirumpatse predicts that before too long Museveni will have Rwanda type "problem."
  10. Dr. Murego ends the "debate" by highlighting its main points: (1) that the "Rwandan people's . . . fierce defense" demonstrates a refusal to "any longer be unconditionally docile" and a desire "to be in control of their own destiny," (2) that a new step is being taken to complete the Revolution of 1959, wherein the Rwandan people are not liberating themselves from "bad physical leadership" but from those related "to the family or ethnicity of those leaders," (3) that the latter signals a "mental revolution" because it shows that the Rwandan people "will never stand anymore to be anyone's slaves," (4) that this revolution will ensure that the "docility" (this word is often repeated) attributed to the Rwandan people will never again be used to humiliate them and deprive them of their rights, (5) that this is a way of saying "'no' to any dictatorial" intentions of the enemy.
  11. Mukarutamu ends the broadcast by thanking her guests and calling on the Rwandan people to "control their destiny…defend their right to dignity . . . [and to be] vigilant and intelligent."
  12. Transmission identity needs to be confirmed
  13. In the second half of this round table discussion hosted by Agensta Mukarutama featuring Murego, Ngirumpatse, Nsengiyumva, and Mugenzi, the participants focus on the Belgians and their "responsibility" for the "disaster" taking place in Rwanda. They are accused of collaborating with the RPF and its murder or Habyarimana and taking advantage of the "docility" of the Rwandan people. The Rwandan people are in turn praised for their "fierce defense" which ensures that they will "never again" be enslaved as they were before the Revolution of 1959.

Suivant l'introduction de Bicamumpaka, dans laquelle il explique que le Rwanda vie des moments difficiles à cause de la guerre déclenchée par le FPR, la discussion se poursuit sur ces thèmes: (1) le FPR fait preuve de son orgueil en refusant de reconnaître le nouveau gouvernement Rwandais et le FPR est accusé d'avoir déjà assassiné de hautes personnalités Rwandaises, (2) le FPR a l'intention de restaurer la monarchie d'antan, (3) défendre les personnes qui ont été victimes des massacres suivant l'assassinat de Habyarimana n'est qu'un prétexte pour masquer leur propre but d'exterminer la population, (4) le FPR est accusé d'avoir assassiné le Président Habyarimana, (5) le FPR avait préparé la reprise de la guerre depuis longtemps et s'étaient infiltrés parmi la population, (6) la guerre d'aujourd'hui n'est qu'une continuation de la révolution de 1959, (7) les Inkotanyi vont se faire exterminer car la population Rwandaise refusera de subir le règne du FPR, (8) la population doit veiller contre les complices qui se sont infiltrés grâce au gouvernement précédent.

  4. This tape consists of Bamwanga's interview with political party leaders Karemera (MRND), Mbonyumutwa (MDR), Mbonampeka (PL), and Nsengiyumva (PSD). They discuss the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF)'s true motives behind its claim that it is only fighting the Presidential Guards and the Interahamwe-CDR. Bamwanga also asks the party leaders to discuss why the RPF appears concerned with the deaths of former Hutu politicians. The four men generally agree that the RPF is interested only in obtaining power and in disguising their "Inyenzi" and UNAR origins.

  4. This tape has the second half of Bamwanga's interview from Archive #080A with political party leaders Karemera (MRND), Mbonyumutwa (MDR), Mbonampeka (PL), and Nsengiyumva (PSD). They continue their discussion about the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF)'s motives when it defends the cause of dead Hutu politicians. Bamwanga and the party leaders also address the RPF's call to Rwandans to join them before "it is too late." Again there is general agreement that the RPF is interested only in obtaining power and that the RPF is attempting to "trick" and mislead people. The men also suggest that the RPF is appealing to the population because it fears it will lose the war.
