Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Just a day after Olivier Nizeyimana Mugabo announced his resignation as Rwanda FA president, four more top officials have left the house as the federation undergoes major shakeup.<\/p>\n

Nizeyimana resigned from office on Wednesday, April 19, citing personal reasons including what he termed in his resignation letter as \u2018a lot of work\u2019.<\/p>\n

Federation vice president Marcel Habyarimana, who is serving the incumbent president role, confirmed that more officials have handed in their resignation letters.<\/p>\n

They include federation secretary general Henry Muhire who has been in office since January 2022.<\/p>\n

Muhire was initially suspended in June 2022 amid \u201cissues of accountability” falling under the scope of his work.<\/p>\n

The former sports journalist was reinstated to continue his responsibilities two weeks later.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jules Karangwa will assume the secretary general interim role to fill Muhire\u2019s absence in office after his resignation.<\/p>\n

Besides Muhire, three members of FERWAFA\u2019s executive committee (excom) followed Nizeyimana\u2019s exit way and resigned.<\/p>\n

They include head of football development David Iraguha, Delphine Uwanyiligira and Aaron Rurangirwa who were in charge of legal matters and referees respectively.<\/p>\n
