Rwandan genocide: "How football saved my life" - BBC Sport Africa

Eric Murangwa Eugene, a Tutsi on the verge of being killed by Hutu extremists during the Rwandan genocide of 1994, recalls how his life was saved. Those who had come to kill him realised he played for one of the country’s biggest clubs and so spared his life.

Today, Eric Murangwa Eugene uses football as a tool to bring harmony in Rwanda in the hope of avoiding such conflict in the future.
