Ingabire was ordained priest on 21st August 2021 and assigned pastoral duties in Kizimyamuriro in Buruhukiro sector of Nyamagabe district.

The Bishop of Gikongoro Diocese, Célestin Hakizimana has told IGIHE that he also heard about the resignation adding that the priest himself knows the reason behind the resignation.

A letter that went viral on social media, apparently written by Father Ingabire reads that the resignation has nothing to do with his calling but the ‘Bishop of Gikongoro Diocese declined to support me and give attention to my concerns’.

Gikongoro Diocese is expected to review the letter and react to the priest’s resignation.

Efforts to contact the priest remained futile as his phone was off by press time.

Ingabire has been serving as priest for almost five months.
