1)How did Congolese tribes related to #Banyarwanda came to think they owe their loyalty to Rwanda? In 1986 after Museveni captured power in Uganda helped by Rwandan Tutsi refugees,they started a campaign to mobilize all Tutsi tribes in the region to prepare invasion on Rwanda!
2)So tribes related to Tutsi from Burundi,Tanzania,Uganda & Congo sent their sons to join #RPF.After Rwanda was captured,many Rwandans fled the country while those Tutsi related tribes who were not Rwandans came to inhabit in Rwanda as a new home! They replaced exiled refugees!
3)Many #Hutu villages were massacred in thousands if not in millions so that invaders can have a land to inhabit! During their mobilization period,the Tutsi who were Congolese ended up feeling as Rwandans because Rwanda became their country after replacing Rwandans!
