Iki cyifuzo, umuyobozi mukuru w’iki kigo, Frère Kizito Misago, yakigaragarije abayobozi bitabiriye kwizihiza isabukuru y’imyaka 100 Padiri Fraipont Ndagijimana wagishinze yagombye kuba amaze iyo aba akiriho.

Yagize ati "Nk’umwana umwe ufite ubumuga imibereho ye yikubye nka gatatu ugereranyije n’utabufite. Ariko iyo urebye usanga ibigo byacu bigenerwa ingengo y’imari idatandukanye n’iy’ibindi bigo."

Abana bafite bakeneye serivise zihariye kandi ngo n’ubwo atari benshi (1629 bafite mu mashuri ubu ngubu, 800 ni bo bafite ubumuga), akenshi baba baturuka mu miryango ikennye itabasha kuriha serivise z’uburezi n’ubuvuzi baba bakeneye.

Uyu muyobozi ibi ngo abivuga atirengagije ibindi Leta yabafashije kugeraho harimo kuba ikigo nderabuzima kivura abafite ubumuga giherereye mu Murenge wa Mukingo mu Karere ka Nyanza, ari na yo ya mbere yashinzwe na Padiri Fraipont, ubu yaragizwe ibitaro byihariye, n’abivuriza kuri mituweli na bo bakaba basigaye baremerewe kuyivurizaho.

Icyakora na none, ngo gukorana na mituweli byatumye ababagana biyongera, ku buryo hakenewe ko ibi bitaro byagurwa kuko nta hantu ho kubakirira hahagije bagifite.

Kwagura ibitaro ngo byari bikwiye no kujyana no guhabwa imbonerahamwe y’imyanya y’abakozi yabafasha kugira abakozi bahagije, ndetse n’ibikoresho byabafasha kurushaho gutanga serivise nziza mu kuvura abafite ubumuga.

Ku rundi ruhande ariko, n’ubwo serivise za HVP Gatagara zisigaye zivurirwa kuri mituweli, serivisi ikomeye cyane y’inyunganirangingo ndetse n’insimburangingo, yo kugeza ubu ntitangirwa kuri mituweli.

Yanavuze ko hakenewe ko umuhanda uturuka kuri kaburimbo ugana ku bitaro bya HVP Gatagara mu Karere ka Nyanza washyirwamo kaburimbo, kuko bitorohera abafite ubumuga bawunyuramo, baba abaza kuhivuza ndetse n’abana bahigira, bitewe n’uko utameze neza.

Ati “Uriya muhanda uragoye. Ntabwo ari muremure, ariko uwawutunganya neza, aba bana bakajya bawunyuramo batekanye, byaba ari igikorwa cyiza.”

Minisitiri w’Ubutegetsi bw’igihugu, Prof. Anastase Shyaka, yavuze ko bazafasha HVP Gatagara gukemura ibibazo ifite uko ubushobozi buzagenda buboneka.

Ati “Umuhanda mwavuze hari hasanzwe hari icyifuzo cyo kuwushyiramo kaburimbo. Turizera ko bitazatinda. N’ibindi byose uko mwabivuze ni ibintu byumvikana, uko intege zizagenda ziboneka tuzagenda tubikora.”
