Rukumberi’s unsung heroes

Editor, A story in yesterday’s issue of The New Times titled: “Rukumberi survivors reward neighbours” was very touching. These rescuers, who helped other Rwandans, in Rukumberi sector, Ngoma District during the 1994 Genocide against Tutsi did a great job.They risked their lives by confronting a barbaric regime. It was a heroic act. I think they are more than rescuers but heroes who didn’t do it to please any one but to help other humans.
