PM Ngirente received letters of resignation from the Minister of State in charge of Primary and Secondary Education Isaac Munyakazi &#038; Minister of State in charge of Constitutional &#038; Legal Affairs, Evode Uwizeyimana, to be delivered to H.E the President.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>{{Evode Uwizeyimana\u2019s misconduct}}<\/p>\n<p>Uwizeyimana resigns following news that he assaulted a female security guard at Grand Pension Plaza.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, news spread that he arrogantly pushed and shoved an ISCO guard after she insisted that he goes through the security scanner.<\/p>\n<p>A journalist, Joseph Hakuzimuremyi, took to Twitter and highlighted the unfortunate incident as he saw it, noting that the guard may not have recognized the minister.<br \/>\nThree hours later, Uwizeyimana too took to Twitter to apologize and said that what he had done was unethical.<\/p>\n<p>He wrote: \u201cI deeply regret what happened. It should not have happened to me as a leader and public official. I already apologized to the ISCO staff and I now do so publicly and apologize to the public as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB) started investigating the incident and said the outcomes would be released to the public.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, ISCO announced that Uwizeyimana had met Mukamana Olive, the assaulted guard, at the headquarters of the company to apologize over the assault.  <\/p>\n<p>{{Dr. Isaac Munyakazi\u2019s dishonesty}}<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Isaac Munyakazi is under investigations over dishonesty he displayed in the 2019 national examination results.<\/p>\n<p>Trusted sources indicate that Munyakazi doctored the ranking of the first ten schools by inserting one that had not even made the first hundred schools\u2019 list in the national examinations.<\/p>\n<p>It is said that he did the incongruous act with the help of staff from the Rwanda Education Board (REB), with a bribe from the principal of that favored school. However, there are other offenses for which he is being investigated.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Munyakazi Isaac has a Ph.D. in Education Management while Evode Uwizeyimana has a Masters Degree in Law.<\/p>\n<p>Uwizeyimana Evode was appointed at the same time as Minister of Constitutional and Legal Affairs in the ministry of justice (a position that had not existed in the ministry before) on October 4, 2016.
