QN  WHO ARE YOU?

My name is Kasimba Mathias,the chairman “KYAMUSISI NKRUMAH UNIT VETERAN FOR SECURITY AND MOBILIZATION”.I was originally called Gashumba but because of the fear instilled in the Banyarwanda community by Milton Obote from 1966 to 1985 my mother changed it to Kasimba to evade the Obote hatred.By 1966 I was about 18 years having been born in 1948 and I heard many things unfold.Although I have not been able to improve my economic conditions, I am proud of my contribution to the stability and eventual progress of this country.

QN TELL ME ABOUT YOUR POLITICAL LIFE ?

When the bush war started in 1981 we immediately formed ourselves into war mobilization zones(units).I became the Butebe unit chairman responsible for Butebe,Kyamagemule,Kalama,Kalangaalo,Kyamanyori and the surrounding areas.The other units were Magara, headed by Nyanzi Yonathani,Kyamusisi,headed by Ssebunya Yowana,Kimuli,headed by Nsereko Alosius,Nakawere,headed by Ndekezi Livingstone,Mayobyo,headed by Kirembwe Erusama,Basajjamula,headed by Yokana Ssegane Musisi and Nyanzi headed by Nzaramba Augustine.

THE 1983 CHANGE OF TACTICS

The Nkurumah unit which was the over all supervisor in Mubende district changed tactics and phased out these units in 1983.Nkrumah unit was first headed by Afande Kanyankore and later Afande Gihanda.On the 9th Aug,1983,I joined the rebel ranks as a soldier.I was later made political commissar.

QN  ANY MEMORIES?

Many times,lorry fulls of Obote soldiers came looking for me.They would come chanting”leo ni leo.tunataka Kasimba etc” but God gave me the opportunity to live on.I survived about ten times.Many of the unit chairmen and other mobilizers were killed; Mulwana George and his brother Ndiwalana Jenelio were killed by Pilato (Walakira) and Kuku.Brave fighters and mobilizers like Nzalamba Augustine,Kabiligi Damaseni,Mpanga,Katende,Yokana Musisi Ssegane,Ndekezi Livingstone and others were all killed A bounty of 5000,000= was put on my head by Obote government but God protected me.I fell sick for five months( and I was hidden by one Aida Kibarawo,a munyankore woman, for four months).My mother tried to escape to Musaba but Warakila`s men tried to reach out to her. She flew to Toro settlement where she died from.When I get out of this poverty I will go for the body of my mother and rebury it.

QN    WHICH SOLDIERS MAINLY THREATENED YOUR OPERATIONS ?

We had Kakwanga,Bukulu,Mapengu and others. Some UPC youth wingers like Kayinja,Walakira,Katta and Damulira were a real threat.We tried to deal with them but made some mistakes. I issued a letter to one Kasirivu to reform but he refused.We consequently launched an operation on Kalangaalo on Easter 1983 with casualities.We were able to destroy the army hideout and store.Walakira(Pilato) later paid for his mistakes.

QN     ANY OTHER ASSIGNMENT?

On 5th Aug,1985,I was asked to leave the bush and carry out the following functions in Mityana area;(a) to recruit new forces (b)to supervise election of RCs,(c)to coordinate reconciliation committees and (d) to explain the aims of the war. This mission was accomplished in November,1985 and I rejoined to capture Kampala.

QN  ANY REGRETS?

I want to meet General Saleh and explain to him that the money sent by the President is channeled through wrong hands. The process should not ignore the traditional unit heads or the family members of those units. The families are known by us but sometimes we are sidelined.

QN   WHAT DROVE YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL INTO THE WAR ?

You know I am a muyarwanda by tribe.Obote started mistreating us way back in 1966.The situation had been worsened by the presence of Umwami Kigeri who came in 1959.Obote asked him to leave Uganda within 48 hours in 1966.What followed his departure was the persecution of all Banyarwanda in Uganda. Amini brought him back in 1972 but was chased again by Obote in 1981.All Banyarwanda were not allowed to vote in 1980 election which was later declared rigged. In late 1982 all Banyarwanda were asked to leave Uganda and the memories are bitter.

FACEBOOK RESPONSES

All states in East Africa and Africa as a whole grant “citizenship by birth” based upon the principle of jus sanguinis (right of blood), in which citizenship is inherited through parents not by birthplace, or a restricted version of jus soli in which citizenship by birthplace is not automatic for the children of certain immigrants. Countries that have acceded to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness will grant nationality to otherwise stateless persons who were born on their territory, or on a ship or plane flagged by that country(Wikipedia). In Africa,an individual belongs to a family, a lineage, a clan and or a tribe; not a territory or a country. In this system, persons acquire citizenship through their parents or ancestors. In America ,the world`s most daring role model jus solis is the predominant rule where whoever is born in the U.S is automatically a U.S. citizen. “BY BIRTH: Child born within the territory of the United States, regardless of the citizenship of the parents” source United States Office of Personnel Management Investigations Service IS-1 March 2001 Citizenship Laws of the World; http://www.slideshare.net/doctorimranjaved/citizenship-of-the-world;accessed on 16th April,2015

The African states in general and East Africa in particular should not be exceptional given the complex nature of their families worsened by the 1984 boundary conference that divide communities, tribes, clans, and families.

HYBRID NATURE OF IDENTITY IN THE EAST AFRICAN COMMUNITIES

LUO SUB-GROUPS:

Some Luo sub-groups such as the Alur,Acholi and Jaluo span across East African international boundaries.There are Alur families both in Uganda and Democratic Republc of Congo,Acholi families in south Sudan and Uganda,Jaluo and Japadhola families in Kenya and Tamzania.An international web media,the Wikipedia has this to say “Later in the 16th century, other Luo-speaking people moved to the area that encompasses present day Southern Sudan, Northern Uganda and North-Eastern Congo (DRC) – forming the Alur, Jonam and Acholi. Between about 1500 and 1800, other Luo groups crossed into present-day Kenya and eventually into present-day Tanzania.”

BABUKUSU/BUKUSU:

The Bukusu live both in Uganda and Kenya.The Bukusu of Kenya believe that the descendants of Mwambu,their ancestor first settled at Masaba from Mumbo the creation place of Mwambu. The Babukusu are believed to have migrated from the Bamasaaba, particularly from areas around Bubulo, in the current Manafwa District. Many clans among the Babukusu have their origins among the Bamasaaba.During the Constituent Assembly that led to the 1995 Cosntitution of Uganda, Mulongo Simon, a delegate from Bubulo East, introduced Babukusu as one of the ethnic groups, acknowledging the fact that both groups, Bamasaaba and Babukusu are intertwined.

BAKIGA:

It is common knowledge that the Bakiga-Nyabingi belief is felt all over Kigezi ,Ruhengeri,and Byumba.While Kigezi is in Uganda,Byumba and Ruhengeri are in Rwanda.Queen Nyabingi who was born in Karagwe,grew up in Kigezi and died from Rwanda where it is believed his father lived.

SAMIA:

According to the Daily monitor of Thursday, March 21 2013, Every beginning of the year, the Samia of Uganda and of Kenya come together to celebrate their oneness. Even though they are separated by a border, they have found a way to keep their ties.Each year,they join hands to hold this day of cultural celebration at the beginning of the year. The festival takes the form of cultural expression in art,music, sport and dance. It brings out the young and old charging in an atmosphere of utmost gaiety. In another world, there would be no Uganda. There would be no Kenya either. Maybe then, the Samia people would not stand on one side of the fence,unable to cross over and say hello to a brother, sister or in-law on the other side,without a government hand rising to grant permission.

BANYARWANDA/BARUNDI/BAFUMBIRA/BASONGORA/BANYARUSHURU/BANYABWISHA/BANYAMULENGE/BAHORORO/.

The best way through which you can tell their oneness irrespective of the prevailing tag is through their clan and lineage system.In most cases the clan will be associated their cultural ancestor,Gihanga or to some extent Kigwa.The Most central clans are Bagesera,Abachaba,Abega,Abasindi,Abakono ,Abanyakarama,Abahondo,Abasinga among others.Their central mythical cultural ancestor wherever they Kigwa and his descendant Gihanga,Kanyarwanda and Kanyaburundi.Sometimes Gatwa,Gahutu and Gatutsi(not promoted these days for unity concerns).They can be collectively be referred to as abavandimwe(children of the same cord) because they all descent from Kigwa.Abavandimwe although in Rwanda and Burundi on the main,they are also in Uganda,Karagwe-Tanzania and Congo.There are always serious citizenship problems outside Rwanda and Burundi drawing humiliating and embarrassing scenes of verification to these groups.As a consequence some new tags have been used to avoid hostility such as Banyarushu,Banyabwisha,Bafumbira among others.

BAKONJO:

The Bakonzo and Banande descendants of Baiyra also have a hybrid nature of identity.They live both in Uganda and Congo in an area commonly known as Rwenzori homeland.According to the Journal of East African Studies: Banande and Bakonzo in the twentieth century,the the colonial boundaries between the British Protectorate of Uganda and the Belgian Congo divided the Banande from the Bakonzo.The Rwenzori abaruzi state that the Bakonzo are more in Congo except that in Congo they are known as Banande. Here below is a survey of some of the citizenship laws of East African states;

UGANDA;BIRTH (a) every person born in Uganda one of whose parents or grandparents is or was a member of any of the indigenous communities existing and residing within the borders of Uganda as at the first day of February, 1926 and set out in the Third Schedule to this Constitution; and (b) every person born in or outside Uganda one of whose parents or grandparents was at the time of birth of that person a citizen of Uganda by birth. Birth within the territory of Uganda does not automatically confer citizenship.                                                                                                                                 Source: constitution of Uganda chapter 3;citizenship;http://www.ugandawiki.ug/Constitution:Chapter_3_-_Citizenship

RWANDA;  Citizenship laws are based upon the Code of Rwandese Nationality dated September 28, 1963. • BY BIRTH: Birth within the territory of Rwanda does not automatically confer citizenship. The exception is a child born within the territory of Rwanda to unknown parents. BY DESCENT: • Child whose father is a citizen of Rwanda, regardless of the child’s country of birth. • Child whose mother is a citizen of Rwanda and whose father is unknown or stateless.                                                Source :United States Office of Personnel Management Investigations Service IS-1 March 2001 Citizenship Laws of the World http://www.slideshare.net/doctorimranjaved/citizenship- of-the-world

BURUNDI      Citizenship laws are based on the Burundian Nationality Code of August 10, 1971. • BY BIRTH: Birth within the territory of Burundi does not automatically confer citizenship. The only exception is a person born in Burundi who is not a citizen of any state and who has resided there for 15 years. BY DESCENT: • Child born of a Burundian father, regardless of the country of birth. • Child born of a Burundian mother and an unknown or stateless father, regardless of the country of birth.                                                                                                                                                                                        Source: United States Office of Personnel Management Investigations Service IS-1 March 2001 Citizenship Laws of the World http://www.slideshare.net/doctorimranjaved/citizenship-of-the-world

KENYA; BIRTH:  Every person born in Kenya after December 11, 1963, becomes a citizen of Kenya if, at the date of birth, at least one parent is a citizen of Kenya. This rule does not apply if: • The father possesses immunity from lawsuit and legal process as accorded to the envoy of a foreign State accredited to Kenya. • The father is a citizen of a country with which Kenya is at war and the birth occurs in a place then under occupation by that other country. BY DESCENT: Any person born outside Kenya after December 11, 1963, becomes a citizen of Kenya at the date of birth, if at that date, their father is a citizen of Kenya .                                                                                                                                                                      Source United States Office of Personnel Management Investigations Service IS-1 March 2001 Citizenship Laws of the World http://www.slideshare.net/doctorimranjaved/citizenship-of-the-world

TANZANIA;  BY BIRTH: Birth within the territory of Tanzania, either before or after independence, does not automatically confer citizenship. BY DESCENT: • Person Born before December 9, 1961: • Person living in Tanzania, who was either a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (UKC) or a British Protected Person (BPP) and at least one of whose parents was born in Tanzania.

PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH STATELESSNESS IN THE WORLD AND EAST AFRICA IN PARTICULAR

The 1961 convention on reduction of stateless persons observed that about 12 million people are stateless.It further observed that most of them live in the shadows, with little or no access to education, health care, social services, or employment. Many are unable to move freely because of lack of identity documents.That they are always vulnerable to exploitation and human trafficking. Someone without a nationality cannot live the same life as someone with a nationality the UN observed.That if you want to understand the pain,try getting an ID without a nationality or try opening a bank account without an ID or try to board a flight without a passport .Some people who are not conscious of their legal status end up having their pride and dignity shattered.
Quotations of disappointment and failure to achieve full potential in East Africa ( NB some quotations date back and countries may have moved forward on certain issues)

According to the  “citizenship laws of the world-country listings”  Citizenship of Uganda is based upon the Constitution of Uganda.  Every person who was a citizen of Uganda on or before October 9, 1962, the date of independence, is considered a citizen of Uganda. And  or a Person born in Uganda after October 9, 1962, at least one of whose parents or grandparents is a citizen of Uganda or a Person born abroad after October 9, 1962, whose father was a citizen of Uganda is also a citizen of Uganda(UKC-Commonwealth Nation). (Source:United states office of personnel.Investigations service.Citizenship laws of the world Is-1 march 2001 country listings http://www.slideshare.net/doctorimranjaved/citizenship-of-the-world as accessed on 13th April,2015) This source further explains that citizenship by birth is granted due to birth within the country according to the principle of jus solis (note that this is not the case for most African countries). The principle asserts that birth in a country automatically confers citizenship regardless of the parent`s citizenship or status.Citizenship by descent  is passed on to a child based upon at least one of the parents being a citizen of that nation,regardless of the child`s actual country of birth according to the principle of jus sanguinis.The 1995 defines citizenship by birth as (a) every person born in Uganda one of whose parents or grandparents is or was a member of any of the indigenous communities existing and residing within the borders of Uganda as at the first day of February, 1926 and set out in the Third Schedule to this Constitution; and   (b) every person born in or outside Uganda one of whose parents or grandparents was at the time of birth of that person a citizen of Uganda by birth. The principle of jus solis in this case does not apply. The options for those left out is either to agitate for adherence to the principle of jus solis or to apply for either naturalization or registration subject to conditions. The process might be lengthy but good things come the hard way. One may need to fill forms making some declarations. He/she may need a legal officer for some stamps.He/she may need secondment from senior citizens and he/she may need letters of good behavior from police

ASIAN FARMERS

The economic trends in Uganda changed following the arrival of Aga Khan in 1905.It marked the beginning of the immigration of Asian farmers to Uganda.They established large plantations of sugar and tea.The colonial government had also facilitated the growth of cotton and coffee as a source of income to the indigenous people.Part of the income would be used to pay tax.

LOCATION OF PLANTATIONS

Mehta and Madhvan families established large estates of sugar which included Lugazi/Kawolo,Kakira and Kinyara. Toro and Mityana tea company (Tamteco) and Uganda tea growers`corporation established large scale tea estates in several parts of the country.

LABOUR IMPLICATIONS

The indigenous people refused to offer voluntary paid labour as they looked down the practice of labouring(obupakasi).The colonial office looked elsewhere for labour supply.Treks of labourers started arriving from Rwanda,Burundi,Karagwe and Kigezi.Others came from Sudan,West Nile and Congo.

FORCED PAID LABOUR (KASANVU)

The arriving migrant workers were required to work on sugar or tea plantations for seven months before they would become free.Those who completed the seven months compulsory period would then be free or Malayaz as they preferred to call them.The malayaz would then be free to either continue working on the plantations or elsewhere on the cotton and coffee plantations privately owned by local chiefs.Previously,the practice of Kasanvu existed in central Uganda but had been stopped around 1922. According to the Daily Monitor of Thursday, May 24 2012, the colonial administration, under pressure from the Colonial Office in London, abolished the Kasanvu system between 1922 and 1923. which meant that by the time Mehta set up his sugar factory at Lugazi in 1924, there was a shortage of labour to work on the sugarcane plantation. According to June Starr and Jane Fishburne,Kasanvu required that every able bodied man work on public projects unpaid for one month a year.There was another type of forced labour called Luwalo. Luwalo required the same able bodied man to work for one month a year on any of the local chief`s private project.Kasanvu had to be revived only in new style (forced but paid and to non indignant workers )

CONDITIONS OF WORK DURING KASANVU

Those serving kasanvu were not supposed to travel.They were required to sleep in one group in one hall.Any attempt to escape would be met with death.A dead person would be buried by a group from another house.The sick was treated alone,no care taking.Very few survived sickness.It is told by survivors that out of the twenty seven (the required number for each group) about ten managed to complete kasanvu alive.The rest would die of sickness.

SETTLEMENT

Those who completed kasanvu were retained as free workers.Others were allowed to integrate into the local communities and either bought land and became settlers or became labourers (abapakasi).It is common knowledge that there are large settlements of assimilated communities from as far as Rwanda,Burundi,Tanzania,Congo and Sudan in areas that neighbor the tea,sugar and coffee growing areas.

CITIZENSHIP

The Uganda Independence Act of 1962  resolved the matter as follows;
”(3) Subject to subsection (8) of this section, a person shall not cease
to be a citizen of the United Kingdom
and Colonies under the last preceding
subsection if he, his father or his father’s father—
(a)
was born in the United Kingdom or in a colony; or
(b)
is or was a person naturalised in the United Kingdom and
Colonies; or
(c)
was registered as a citizen of
the United Kingdom and Colonies;
or
(d)
became a British subject by reason of the annexation of any
territory included in a colony.
(4) A person shall not cease to be a citizen of the United Kingdom
and Colonies under subsection (2) of this section if he was born in a
protectorate or protected state, or if hi
s father or his father’s father was so
born and is or at any time was a British subject.”
However,citizenship tempers have been boiling over years about former migrant workers,their children or grand children.According to Cultural Survival advocates for Indigenous Peoples rights inc, Ugandan leader Milton Obote ordered the registration of all peoples of Rwandan origin in 1969.The takeover of Idi Amin provided a temporary relief. According to cultural advocates the registration data was used to deny the Banyarwanda voting rights in 1980.In late 1982,officials of the government orchestrated a large scale displacement of Banyarwanda. Affected were those who had always lived in Uganda as well as refugees who had arrived in the sixties citizens and non-citizens alike. Beginning on October 1, teams of local officials, members of the youth wing of the
UPC, and special forces of the police attacked Banyarwanda homes. These were
destroyed or rendered uninhabitable as the mud walls were pushed in or the
corrugated metal roofs were stolen. Even homes on the perimeter of long-established refugee settlements were destroyed. Intimidation of the people, accompanied by beatings and a number of killings,precipitated large-scale displacement. By October 2, Banyarwanda were streaming from
their homesites, some into the established refugee settlements and some across the boarder into Rwanda. Although allowed to take what possessions they could carry, most were taken from them at the numerous roadblocks manned by members of the Special Police Force and the UPC youth wing. Local inhabitants were prevented by the eviction teams from giving or selling water, food or shelter to those in flight. Most entered Rwanda on foot. Caught unprepared, Rwanda officials arranged for trucks to transport the refugees to camps. Those who fled to the established refugee
settlements within Uganda waited in fear of the governments next actions. By
November 1, potential displacement was so large that Rwanda closed its border. ( https://www.culturalsurvival.org)
There are arrangements by East African leaders to solve the citizenship question once and for all. Data centers and registration bureaus have been established following the successful biometric registration of all persons in the respective East African countries.

One of the most influential imandwa(heroic spirits of the dead) in Kigezi region is Nyabingi.Nyabingi has been and is believed and worshiped by many followers mainly in Rukiga,Ndorwa,Mpororo,Ruhengeri,Byumba and Karagwe.According to Aman Athar,a researcher in Rwanda,Nyabingi is worshipped through her intermediaries or priests and priestess called “ Abagirwa”.Abagirwa perfom rituals in a ceremony called Kubandwa.The most important Nyabingi sites in Uganda are at the caves of Nyakisenyi in Kigezi region.A legendary woman known as Muhumusa in Kigezi and Muhumuza in Rwanda has kept the Nyabingi spirit burning in Western Uganda.Allegedly possessed by Nyabingi spirit Muhumuza and her worshipers rose against the white colonialists destroying their buildings and other symbols of authority.This rebellion although not well promoted by Ugandan historians came to be known as THE NYABINGI MOVEMENT.Muhumusa was captured by the British in 1913 and detained in Kampala until her death in 1945.Many ill and barren villagers believed that Nyabingi who was also considered the rain maker,would cure their diseases and infertility if they made good sacrifices to her.On that note Nyabingi spirit is believed to have possessed some Bakiga/Banyarwanda mediums and blessed them with power to heal,make rain and cure infertility. Nyabingi`s parentage is a subject of discussion with some suggesting that she was born to a Muhaya in Gahaya house and her primary name was Kanzanire while others know her as daughter of Bwinshi hence the name Nyabwinshi or Nyabingi as widely pronounced.Bwinshi`s name is believed to have been used to hide a fact according to Amani Athar.Her true father was Ruganzu who later became king and ruled as Ruganzu Ndoli.Nyabingi was born in Karagwe,now Tanzania and grew up in Ndorwa,now Uganda.When her father Ruganzu became king she was blessed and rewarded among others with a title of Princess and that is how she came to be known as a very important goddess in the region.Muhumusa or Muhumuza her chief priest is believed by legends in Rwanda to have came to Kigezi to look for a drum makiga previously owned by a dead mukiga elder.This drum was believed to be a source of riches.This expedition set her on a collision course with colonialists leading to a war that ended in her capture.Alleged possessions of Nyabingi continue up to today especially among women in non Christian families in the region.There are versions that present Queen Muhumusa as a power hungry woman rather than a freedom fighter. According to Andrew Cornwall,Readings in Gender in Africa,Muhumusa who claimed to be the wife of Rwabugiri became disgruntled when her son`s attempt to succeed his father as king was challenged by war.She fled to the north and gathered supporters while personalizing Nyabingi,and tried to install her son as King but the Germans doomed her chances with the support of Musinga,the then reigning king.She was annoyed and turned her anger against the Europeans.With a large following of Bakiga and Banyarwanda,she raided their stations and destroyed buildings and declared herself the Liberator and Queen of Ndorwa.She was later captured and detained until her death.

ABACHWEZI
Ndahura is given as the first Muchwezi.He was the son of Isimbwa.Isimbwa was the son of Isaza.Interestingly ,Isaza was the last king of Abatembuzi. Isaza was the son of Ngonzaki ,Ngonzaki was the son of Bada and Bada was the son of Kakama.Kakama on his part was the son of Nkya.Ruhanga was the first king on earth and he was a mutembuzi.Ndahura`s son Wamara was also the last chwezi king .
ABAHINDA
The Bahinda clans can be found in Uganda,Tanzania,Rwanda and Burundi.While they are ordinary clans in Rwanda and Burundi,they are given as kingdom founders in Uganda (Ankore) and Tanzania (Karagwe).Ruhinda,the founding father of Abahinda clan in Uganda is said to have been the son of Wamara and  wife Njunaki of Bunyoro Kitara.Ruhinda Kizirabagabe I of Karagwe is said to have been related to Ruhinda Njunaki of Ankore.It is not clear whether there was any relationship beween Chief Ruhinda of Ruhaga in Buha and the two Ruhindas earlier discussed.
ABEGA
“Nkuko twabibonye ku Basindi cyangwa ku Banyiginya, Abega bakuru benshi twabajije nabo batubwiraga ko inkomoko zabo za mbere ziherereye mu nce zo mu majyaruguru y’u-Rwanda kimwe no mu majyepfo ya Uganda y’ubu, muri za Ndorwa-Ankole-Kigezi-Rukiga, ndetse mbere na mbere bikaba bishoboka ko baba baravuye mu majyaruguru kurushaho, ahagana muri za Bunyoro-Butoro.”
Translated: As seen about the Basindi or the Banyiginya,the Abega we spoke to told us that they originate from the north of Rwanda and the south of Uganda of today in the areas of Ndowa-Ankore-Kigezi-Rukiga,but it had been known earlier that they came from the north in Bunyoro-Butoro.
“Icyiciro cya kabiri ni icyaciye muri za Nkore gikomeza kigana za Karagwe na Buhaya, bakamanuka bagana mu Bushubi, Bushingo, Buha kuzagera mu Burundi. Nkuko twabibonye ku Basindi-Banyiginya, aba Bega nabo babaye nkabazenguruka i-Burasirazuba bw’u-Rwanda bafata icyerekezo kigana ku Nyanja y’i-Karagwe (Lac Victoria). Aba rero ni bo binjiye mu Rwanda baciye muri za Mubari-Mutara-Buganza, Gisaka bavuye Karagwe na Buhaya, abandi binjirira mu Bwanamukari-Bungwe-Nyaruguru-Bufundu-Bunyambiriri ndetse na Kinyaga-Impara-Rusenyi-Bwishaza bakomotse mu Burundi; ariko hari n’abandi bakomeje bambuka Rusizi bagana mu Bupfurero (Lwindi-Kaziba), mu Bushi no mu Buhavu”
Paraphrased: The second group came through Ankore ,Karagwe,Buhaya, they went down to Bushubi,Bushingo,Buha up to Burundi…these entered Rwanda from Buhaya and Karagwe.

Once upon a time, there lived a man called Kanyarwanda and another called Kanyaburundi.The two were brothers and sons of Gihanga.Gihanga was the son of Kazi ka Muntu who was  a great grand son of kings from heaven(Ibimanuka).Kanyarwanda founded his kingdom called Urwanda while his brother Kanyaburundi founded another called Uburundi. Does it logically follow that Kanyarwanda is the ancestor of all the Banyarwanda and Kanyaburundi  the ancestor of all the Barundi ? The Banyarwanda and Barundi are the peoples of Rwanda and Burundi on the main, and to an extent Uganda,Congo and Tanzania. The  2014 Percentage distribution of  population by ethnicity  in Uganda placed the Uganda Banyarwanda citizens at 524098 of whom 252493 were males while 271605 were females. 422355 lived in rural areas while 101,743 lived in towns.The report also placed  Barundi-Uganda citizens at 92570 of who 48657 were males while 43913 were females. 82134 of these lived in rural areas and 10436 lived in urban areas. It was also observed that  there were 91231 Banyarwanda  and 21798 Barundi residents in Uganda at the time of the 2014 census report. A resident might be required to take a slightly further step to become a citizen. Of the 91231 Banyarwanda residents,43271  were males while 47960 were females. 66058 resided in villages while 25173 resided in towns.Of the 21798 Barundi residents, 11,198 were males while 10600 were females.19322 lived in villages while 2476 lived in urban areas.  ( Main report; National Population and Housing census, 2014)
