{{The high cost of securing space for burial at Rusororo cemetery in Kigali has prompted intervention from Parliamentary standing Committee on Social Affairs.}}

The Head of the Commission Mwiza Esperance has said an investigation found that the cost of burial at Rusororo is extremely high compared to the financial capacity of Rwandans.

The report which will be submitted to MPs emphasized on cost reduction for burial services.

Graves are categorized into three forms at Rusororo Cemetery; 1st class which costs over Frw700,000 without funeral services, Middle class costs Frw450, 000 and the lower Class at cost of Frw 150,000.

The cemetery has only 12 hectares of land.
