Mariya Yohana

"I belong to the National dance group, and after 30 years, I am grateful for the empowerment it has brought into my life. It has been the solution to my challenges, helping me forget my sorrows and start anew with a hopeful heart. As a traditional artist, I have witnessed firsthand how the art form fosters unity and healing. Those who are no longer with us should have seen a Rwanda of unity, peace, and development, thanks to good leadership. They left us, and their absence left us in grief, but we have wiped away our tears. We have been blessed with good milk, and may God grant them blessings. We remember them with the hope of coming together again as we did in those difficult times. We are satisfied."

Imyaka 30 , yaranshimishije kuko yambereye igisubizo cy'ubuzima . Yanyibagije agahinda ninjiranye nitangiriye itama . Abasigaye tutinjiranye ngo barebe uRwanda  rw'ubumwe n'amahoro ndetse n'amajyambere dukesha ubuyobozi bwiza . Barihutse kandi bajyanye agahinda twe baduhanaguye amarira , basimbura abacu twabuze ; turamizwa amata meza . Imana ibaduhere imigisha .Tubatuye kuzafatanya nanone uko twabikoze muri cya gihe cy'amajune. Twaranyuzwe.
