CHAPTER IV
DATA ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION
4.1. Introduction
In this chapter, the research endeavors to analyze the data,
interpret it and present various findings. It has also an objective of
measuring and providing the research questions whether valid or invalid. It
presents the findings of the study and related information that was collected
in relation with the research objectives and research questions. The data is
presented in the form of statistical tables and percentages.
4.2. Author and his
work
A self-made artist, A.Z.C., author of CS under study, was born
in Gakenke District on 22nd November, 1978. He successfully achieved
his primary studies at Gakenke primary school (1985-1992), secondary studies at
Janja secondary school (1992-1998) and university studies at National
University of Rwanda/ Butare (1999-2004).
During his primary, secondary and university studies, this
author spent most of his time leading different books. This enabled him to
think imaginatively and he started trying to realize his. In the year 1997, he
realized a preliminary CS. Its appreciation encouraged him to realize an
album

of SC to be published and distributed all over the country,
because a normally gifted mind that pursues closely a determined study must
acquire infallibly a high expertise in this particular domain. This long-term
profitable project began in the year 1999.
This group of finalized activities and actions undertaken in
the goal to answer to a need defined in the fixed delays and in the limit of
the budgetary envelope allocated, has been managed by the author. This means
that he did a gait aiming to structure, to assure and to optimize the good
progress of his sufficiently complex project to be planned in the time, to
master and to pilot risks, to reach the level of quality wished and, finally,
to follow some important operational and financial stakes.
The objective of the project has been specified in a lucid
way, encoded and dated so that the result is compliant to norms of quality and
performances predefined, for the least cost and in the best possible delay.
However, this complete artist (Script-writer and drawer),
while working with direct colors he opted for the American style and achieved
the historical, satirical and half-realistic CS. These CS are convenient for
all categories of age.
The main character was chosen after consulting many people
about his main characteristics. This main character is a soldier, strong man,
self-confident and wearing sunglass covering the left eye. He is called CEAZI
(pronounced like ``Charles'' in English).
While realizing some CS, the author did a typographic and
iconographic material research work because the place and the time existed. On
the other hand, the author was a lot more oriented toward the graphic design
because the universe of history was coming out from his imaginary.
The album is composed by a series of seven CS, as shown in the
photo below.

Avoiding the falsification of history, thinking about unity
among Rwandan people and with the help of the fictional characters, the author
has achieved the CS shown in the photo above. The following paragraphs permit
to describe briefly each of them.
4.2.1. Ingamba z'abaganizi
The title of the work ``Ingamba z'abaganizi'' in
kinyarwanda can be translated in English as ``Strategies of invincible men''.
Indeed, in October 1990, Rwandan Patriotic Army (RPA), a branch of Rwandan
Patriotic Front (RPF-INKOTANYI), movement founded from abroad by the refugees,
attacked the country from Uganda (the liberation struggle).
In this book, few months after the beginning of fights in the
North of Rwanda, RPA under the conduct of men with expeditious reflexes and
strong nerves, in order to regain the respect of themselves and their dignity
has pursued the offensives against the governmental army.
The main character was at that time a battalion commander from
rebels positioned in the first lines on battlefield. Considering that the war
had the tendency to last a long time, he retired in order to pursue more
training in Vietnam. The men who were fighting for their liberty, for the
liberty of their families and their people wondered after hearing about his
decision.
