Western Province Governor Habitegeko and the Director General of the National Land Authority (NLA), Espérance Mukamanawari, have been relieved of their duties by President Paul Kagame. The removal of these officials was made public on August 28, 2023, through an official statement issued by the Office of the Prime Minister.

Habitegeko assumed the role of Western Province Governor in March 2021, following two terms as the mayor of Nyaruguru District.

Meanwhile, Espérance Mukamana, a seasoned lawyer, has been deeply involved in Rwanda’s land management for over two decades. Her contributions include pivotal roles in land use reforms.

She served as the deputy registrar of land titles in the Southern Province from 2006 to 2016, followed by a stint as the registrar of land titles in Kigali City from 2016 to 2017.

Mukamana’s professional journey encompasses a role as a legal practitioner with the non-governmental organization Haguruka from 2001 to 2004, along with service at the National Public Prosecution Authority (NPPA).

Among others, Mukamana once served in the prosecution of former Byumba Province. Notably, Mukamana also took on the position of Deputy Board Chairperson at the Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Board (RAB) in 2018.

Having held the leadership of the NLA since 2017, Mukamana’s tenure came to an end prior to her recent dismissal. The specific reasons behind their removals remain undisclosed.

Mukamana has been at the helm of NLA since 2017.
