“Ndandikwazi ukuva uloyiko kwilizwi lentombi yam. Uloyiko endandingazange ndiluve ngaphambili. ‘Balapha; bajikeleze indlu,’ wayehlebeza, ilizwi lakhe lingcangcazela. Ndandibazi ukuba bangoobani ‘aba’: Ababulali… Ndandiza kuthetha into ethile xa ndeva isibhamu, silandelwa sisikhalo; emva koko ifowuni yacima. Ndakhwaza ngomsindo, ndingazi ukuba ndenze ntoni. Kancinci kancinci, ndaguqa ngamadolo ndaza ndaqalisa ukuthandaza.”

Kwiminyaka engamashumi amabini anesihlanu eyadlulayo ngo-Epreli 1994, kwaqaliswa iphulo elibi lokubulala abantu abangamaTutsi aseRwanda. Kwisithuba seentsuku ezilikhulu, isigidi sabantu sashiywa sifile. Le bali lomntu libalisa ibali labasindileyo ababini - uJean Bosco kunye nentombi yakhe uChristine. Nangona uninzi lwamalungu eentsapho zabo babhubha, bafumana indawo yokukhosela kwindawo eyathi kamva yaduma ngokuba yi "Hotel Rwanda."

Ibali labo lokusinda libali lothando kunye nombono obuhlungu ngaphakathi woko kwenzekayo xa ilizwe lizaliswe bububi. Kodwa likwalibali lokholo—umzamo wokufumana uThixo phakathi koloyiko—kunye nomzabalazo olandelayo wokufumana intsingiselo, ukuphiliswa, kunye noxolelwaniso.

UJean Bosco Rutagengwa, owasinda kwimbubhiso yaseRwanda, wadlala indima ebalulekileyo ekusekeni imibutho yokunceda abanye abasindileyo, ukukhumbula abafileyo, nokwakha kwakhona uluntu lwaseRwanda. Ngowama-2000 wafudukela eMelika nosapho lwakhe baza bahlala eNew Hampshire, apho bahlala khona namhlanje.
