  • @byir0070 I left that school in 91 but if your girlfriend has older siblings who went there, I might know them

  • @erwin5us her name is Ingabire she was there I think between 1992-1995 Im not sure

  • @byir0070 I went to the same school, what her name and what year was that? good memories!!!

  • Women drumming??!! Never seen that, unusual but wonderful to watch. The drumming beat is from Burundi, though. Sorry, my Rwandese brethren and sistren, Bturundi drummers are the best in the world. Rwandese dancers (women and men), on the other hand, are simply the best!

  • INKUNGUZI Z'ABAGORE!!!!MUSIGEHO KWICA UMUCO NYARWANDA

  • This happens to be my girlfriend's primary school wow!!! old memories never end ,so beautiful I support this women!!!!

  • Why not ! they even do better than some men` s groups. Keep it up. Some backwards tradditions should step aside !!!

  • This is unique in Africa. Women do not traditionally beat drums. In April 2008, they were invited by famous Senegalese drummer Doudou Ndiaye Rose for his golden jubilee beating drums.

  • Wow!! that is my elementary school, I don't know what to say
