In front of survivors and the authorities of the City of Namur present on the occasion, the child spoke with remarkable sincerity and depth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI stand before you in memory of our loved ones who were killed in Rwanda during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi,\u201d he stated at the outset, honoring those who lost their lives during the Genocide against the Tutsi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a speech filled with emotion, he spoke about shattered lives: men, women, and children\u2014each with dreams, families, and unique stories. He reminded the audience that behind every victim was a life, a smile, a hope.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The young speaker also highlighted the enduring reality of grief. \u201cThis pain is not always visible. It is silent, but it is there,\u201d he said, emphasizing the living memory carried by families and survivors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond remembrance, his message carried hope. He called for memory to become a foundation for building a better future: \u201cTheir memory can help us build something more just, more humane.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aware of his young age, he added with humility: \u201cI cannot change what happened, but I can learn, remember, and believe in a different future, a future without violence where children grow up in safety and where solidarity prevails over hatred.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thirty-two years later, his speech reminded everyone of the importance of never forgetting, while holding on to a light of hope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEven after the darkest moments, it is possible to rebuild, to rise again, and to move forward together,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, he expressed his gratitude for the efforts of reconstruction, remembrance, and reconciliation undertaken by the Rwandan government, noting that a future based on peace and dignity remains possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through his simple yet powerful words, Christian Cyusa delivered a striking testimony, embodying both memory and hope for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
