| Prince Antoine-Théophile NYETERA 1936-2012 |
Throughout the years, we/I have valued his friendship, kindness and thoughtfulness. We will sorely miss all of our laughs, friendly conversations, and evenings of comradeship. We will always keep Mr. Nyetera Antoine memories held deeply within our/my hearts(s) reminding us/me of how life should be lived.
He was our friend in the successful fight for Rwanda’s Freedom, peace and Justice from Kagame and RPF dictatorship.
His courage, devotion and loyalty to the Rwandan people and nation is an inspiration to all of us who Love Freedom, Justice and Peace for all Rwandans, AbaHutu, AbaTutsi and AbaTwa including all those who have chosen to bear the Rwanda nationality or live in Rwanda, out fatherland
Mr Nyetera Antoine, whom I had the great pleasure of meeting during our memorable events, demonstrations, conferences around the world was a man of universal vision whose pragmatic political wisdom served admirably to realize so many of Rwandan NGOs and political parties’goals. I request Your Excellency to accept, and to convey to the family of the late Premier the expressions of my condolences. on the passing away of this great personality.
On behalf of the African Survivors Community and myself, please accept, our heartfelt condolences, profound sympathy and deep feelings of sorrow towards the passing away of this great personality.
Mr. Nyetera was an outstanding political figure, who served the world and his country in particular, Rwanda, with distinction. He will be remembered for his passion for the causes, which he espoused, not least of which was his fight for the Truth, Freedom and Justice in Rwanda, urging them to participate fully in the process of TRUE reconciliation of all Rwandans with respect of Rwandans human rights and dignity.
Regarded as a political, social and cultural icon in the life of Rwanda, he was a charismatic, eloquent and a consummate master of communication. As we mourn his loss, we cannot but recognize the indelible impression he has left on the Truth about the Truth about the Rwandan Genocide mastermind and the reality on ethnic groups of Rwanda.
Mr. Nyetera also pursued with unwavering commitment the full reconciliation of the major ethnic groups namely Hutu and Tutsi of the African Great Lakes Region. As a consequence, his vision for and support of the reconciliation process was never in question. He was tireless in his efforts for the improvement of the reconciliation of Hutus and Tutsis as his fellow citizens. He was, for example, one of the rare personalities who dared to question about Kagame’s scenario about the 1994 tragic events.
In paying homage to this great son of Rwanda, it is fitting to acknowledge that his distinguished service to his country and to the African Great Lakes Region will always be a great source of inspiration in our efforts in fulfilling Rwandans’aspirations for a stronger and more viable nation definitely liberated from RPF dictatorship and Kagame’s tyranny.
As International is an international nonpartisan charity organization devoted to defending human rights. It’s an organization working to promote democracy and national reconciliation, inside countries of the African Great lakes Region.
As International centers its work on the twin concepts of freedom of self-determination and freedom from tyranny. These ideals include the belief that all human beings have the rights to speak freely, to associate with those of like mind, and to leave and enter their countries. Individuals in a free society must be accorded equal treatment and due process under law, and must have the opportunity to participate in the governments of their countries;
As International’s ideals likewise find expression in the conviction that all human beings have the right to be free from arbitrary detainment or exile and from interference and coercion in matters of conscience. ASI does not support nor condone violence.
The Truth can be buried and stomped into the ground where none can see, yet eventually it will, like a seed, break through the surface once again far more potent than ever, and Nothing can stop it. Truth can be suppressed for a “time”, yet It cannot be destroyed. ==> Wolverine
