14 Rwandan refugees from CAR are back home

Rwanda-14 Rwandan refugees are back home from different refugees camps in Central African Republic.

With tears of joy, they were welcomed by their family members at Kigali International Airport. Nine families returned home,among which the one of Mukacyenda Cecile  has nine family members.

The majority of them fled the country in the after genocide period,2003 and 2007, due to different circumstances.

One of the returnees,Mukacyenda Cecile says that she went there to visit her husband who have small businesses  in the CAR but she remained there as she could not get legal papers for a safe return.

In Central African Republic ,refugees say,they struggle for survival as they cannot get a UN support because no aid is reserved for them.

Brenda Chantal,from MIDMAR, told reporters  that  refugees who are willing to return home will always receive an adequate support but none will be forced to do so unwillingly,she underlined.

Barihuta Leon Fidel went into CAR in 1996 to visit his girlfriend and got married with her. He remained there until the time he resolved to return back home.
