Léon Mugesera is infamously known for his 1992 genocidal motivational
speeches encouraging his audience to kill what he called the cockroaches and
dump their bodies into the river Nyabarongo so that they could go back to
Ethiopia where they belong. After many Mugeseras indoctrination tours
throughout the country, his followers took the ideology and tasks from the
extremist in chief seriously.
As the result of Mugeseras endeavor, Hutu extremists, MRND loyalists and
Interahamwe militias took up the task they have been assigned to. They went
to every street, village, town and city hunting and killing every Tutsi they
could find. The memories of horrific images of bodies, some cut into pieces,
others with women stripped naked, children dead in their mothers back
floating in river Nyabarongo and Lake Victoria will ever be in peoples mind
(at least those who care). Mugesera message was not only intended to
annihilate the Tutsi population, it was also meant to make sure that their
death inflicts an excruciating and inhumane pain to the victims. Like most
of the genocide against Tutsi architects, Mugesera managed to flee from
Rwanda to Canada.
Initially the genocidaire in chief seemed to have got away with crimes of
genocide. He managed to cheat justice for two decades (living freely in
Canada) despite all the strong evidence of his role in inciting genocide
against the Tutsi. He managed to delay his deportation for a while. But as
we all knew it was a matter of time before the arm of justice caught with
him. The blood on his hands was too thick to divert justice. The cries of
babies who were dumped into the river on the back of their dead mothers, the
misery of orphans whose mothers were raped and killed before their very eyes
continued to haunt Léon Mugesera.
Now as we speak he is spending sleepless nights in the prison in his
homeland where the ideology he preached left thousands dead, orphaned and
may widowed. The orphans whose parents were brutally killed were at the
Kigali airport to get a glimpse of the mothers, fathers, sisters, cousins,
and aunts killer. To these days they continue to be in the courtroom to see
the evil man who took away the fun of childhood at their infancy.
While majority of Rwandans inside and outside Rwanda are happy that at last
the justice have been served in deporting one of the genocide fugitives,
many others still feel abandoned by the international community due to the
fact that individuals who are accused of the same crimes of genocide are
still walking free in different parts of the developed world especially the
western capitals. To be sure, while the United States has deported Jean
Marie Vianney Mudahinyuka and Marie Claire Mukeshimana back to Rwanda to
face justice, there are still many notorious genocidaires in different part
of the United States. One of them is Prof. Léopold Munyakazi who up to these
days continues to collaborate with genocide ideologist all over the world,
collaborates meetings to fundraise money for the FDLR, a terrorist outfit
that continues to terrorize the Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Like
Marie Mukeshimana and Mudahinyuka, Léopold Munyakazi is a genocide convict
who took part in the 1994 Genocide against Tutsis in the former Gitarama
prefecture now in the Southern Province. Prof. Munyakazi whose teaching
contract at Goucher College in Maryland (US) was terminated due to his role
on genocide, continues to be an active member of international genocidaire
criminal network.
Munyakazis crime include genocide, complicity to Genocide and conspiracy to
commit genocide. He jumped bail and fled to the United States in 1999 after
realizing damning evidence leveled against him. Mugeseras fate took 20
years to answer the cries of millions of Tutsi victims. Survivors and
victims of Munyakazis horrendous crimes continue to be optimistic that one
day they will have an opportunity to see the man who supervised the killings
of their mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers at the roadblocks in
Gitarama deported back to Rwanda to answer the crimes he committed.
