  • Mr. Frank Habineza to be ousted by his SG, party members are being mobilized of the new plan.

Kigali, Rwanda-in the similar move which took place in another opposition party PS-Imberakuri, ever since government of Rwanda, pronounced Democratic Green Party of Rwanda DGPR legally accepted to operate; the ruling party RPF is reportedly concerned over its reluctance to join forum of political parties.

Sources in ruling RPF circles say senior party officials have established contacts with Green party to oust their boss Mr. Frank Habineza, who is accused of harboring anti-government ideas and being an extreme opposition individual.

Among the contacts in the making is Mr. Jean Claude Ntezimana who is currently secretary general of DGPR and is seen to likely to head the party after the plan succeeds. Another person is Mr. Alex Mugisha, currently a commissioner general of the party who is believed to working with Ntezimana.

Green party sources say the party is also in limbo following the on-going option to join or not to, the forum of political parties. Recently, the party political bureau failed to agree on the option to join or abandon the idea of joining the forum.

Both Ntezimana and Mugisha are said to be in contacts with RPF and government officials to mobile within DGPR for the members to oust the founder of the chairman of the party Mr. Habineza.

When asked, Ntezimana denied any involvement and also refuted the existence of such plan. But, he accepted to have heard about the same story which he thinks is planted to divide the party. "People want to plant mistrust mainly in main central committee (the supreme decision making organ) next to General assembly. It's not true. There is no plan."

Asked why all fingers are at him, he said that "considering my role in the registration of the party, and my current position, I am being a target." Ntezimana also says most of the people in the party are aware of the rumor.

However, DGPR sources say, what started as a rumor is taking another twist as Mr. Ntezimana has started reaching out to some key members convincing them of the new plans to rid off Habineza.

Sources also say that during the parliamentarian elections, Intore boss, Bonifas Rucagu visited Green party commissioner of Northern Province.

Another senior RPF member linked with the plan are James Musoni and Christopher Bazivamo who is the vice president of RPF.

Great Lakes Voice has also learnt that this week, DGPR will hold a meeting. It's not yet clear if the matter concerning coup d' etat will be discussed.

OIF : Louise Mushikiwabo, une candidature embarrassante pour un troisième mandat de trop

C'était en novembre 2025, à Kigali. En marge de la 46e Conférence ministérielle de la Francophonie, Louise Mushikiwabo prenait la parole avec l'assurance de celle qui n'a rien à craindre : de nombreux pays, affirmait-elle, lui avaient demandé de se représenter. Spontanément. Naturellement. Unanimement presque. Sauf que les faits racontent une tout autre histoire. L'annonce qui ne devait pas avoir lieu si tôt Novembre 2025. Le Centre de Conventions de Kigali accueille plus de 400 délégués des 90 États membres de l'Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. Le thème officiel porte sur les femmes et l'égalité des genres, trente ans après Pékin. Mais en marge des séances plénières, c'est une autre affaire qui agite les couloirs : Louise Mushikiwabo vient d'annoncer qu'elle souhaite briguer un troisième mandat. L'annonce est prématurée. Délibérément. Les candidatures ne ferment qu'en avril 2026. Aucun autre pays n'a encore ...

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines ne fonctionnent pas contre le Rwanda

Pourquoi Paul Kagame a ignoré les sanctions américaines et la Résolution 2773 du Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU Entre février 2025 et mars 2026, le Trésor américain a imposé deux séries de sanctions ciblant directement la machine de guerre du Rwanda dans l'est du Congo : d'abord James Kabarebe, ministre d'État rwandais et principal intermédiaire du régime auprès du M23, puis les Forces de défense rwandaises en tant qu'entité, ainsi que quatre de leurs hauts responsables. Chacun des individus sanctionnés est demeuré en poste. Les FDR ne se sont pas retirées. Cette analyse examine pourquoi les mesures de Washington n'ont pas modifié la conduite du Rwanda — et pourquoi, selon les propres mots de Kagame, elles sont rejetées comme l'Å“uvre des « simplement stupides ».     Introduction : des sanctions sans conséquence La campagne de sanctions de Washington contre les opérations militaires du Rwanda dans l'est du Congo s'...

Paul Kagame: “We refuse to remove defensive measures"

Paul Kagame Refuses to Implement the Washington Accords and UN Security Council Resolution 2773: Analysis and Implications In an exclusive interview published on 3 April 2026, President Paul Kagame of Rwanda openly confirmed that Rwandan forces are deployed in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, rejected calls for their withdrawal, dismissed US sanctions as illegitimate, and signalled clear satisfaction with the current military status quo. This briefing examines what Kagame said, what his remarks mean for the Washington Accords, and what concrete steps the United States must now take if it wishes to restore credibility to its diplomacy in the Great Lakes region. Introduction: A Confession Wrapped in Grievance The interview, conducted by François Soudan and published in Jeune Afrique on 3 April 2026, is one of the most candid public statements Paul Kagame has made on Rwanda's military role in the DRC. Its significance does not lie in revealing something previously unknown. Th...
