Hutu Power Hutu Power Hutu Power is a racist supremacist ideology propounded by Hutu extremists in Rwanda. It led to the 1994 Rwandan genocide against the Tutsi. Hutu Power political parties and movements included the "Akazu", the Coalition for the Defence of the Republic and its "Impuzamugambi" paramilitary militia, and the governing National Republican Movement for Democracy and Development and its "Interahamwe" paramilitary militia. Hassan Ngeze in 1990 created the "Hutu Ten Commandments" that served as the basis of Hutu Power ideology. The "Commandments" called for the supremacy of Hutus in Rwanda, calling for exclusive Hutu leadership over Rwanda's public institutions and
Rwandan genocide or simply having a "Tutsi appearance". The RPF was making slow but steady gains in the north and east of the country, ending the killings in each area occupied. The genocide was effectively ended during April in areas of Ruhengeri, Byumba, Kibungo and Kigali provinces. The killings ceased during April in the "akazu" heartlands of western Ruhengeri and Gisenyi, as almost every Tutsi had been eliminated. Large numbers of Hutu in the RPF conquered areas fled, fearing retribution for the genocide; 500,000 Kibungo residents walked over the bridge at Rusumo Falls, into Tanzania, in a few days at the end
