Twenty years ago, March 1994, I went on my first trip to Africa. Instead of choosing large, complicated countries such as Sudan, Congo or Somalia, I decided to go to two tiny countries called Burundi and Rwanda. After spending two weeks in Burundi and Rwanda, I arrived in Kigali on April 6th and found it a rather boring place. That same night, the plane carrying the two presidents was shot down. The next morning,I found myself the only journalist present when the genocide started. Here the original dispatches I wrote for the Flemish paper De Morgen who had the world scoop. teunvoeten/1994_04_kigali_dm_nl.pdf
