Nkurunziza has been in Ruhango District council since December 2016 after being elected to represent Ntongwe sector.
The chairperson of Ruhango District council said that Mayor François Xavier Mbabazi, Vice-mayor in charge of Finance and Economic Development, Epimaque Twagirimana and Vice-mayor in charge of Social Affairs, Annonciata Kambayire were sacked after a report revealed mismanagement in some projects of the district.
“Take an example of the project to construct a landfill in the district; the landfill was constructed without a feasibility study, but they referenced to feasibility studies which were non existen; this resulted into mismanagement in the project. It is two months now since we received the report,” he said.
He added the district has been poorly performing in the districts performance contracts (Imihigo). In 2016/2017 district performance, the district came in 28th position among 30 districts.
“The positions of districts show the level of performance. In different retreats as district council, we showed them that we were not contented with our position and we suggested measures that should have been taken for the district to perform well,” he explained.
“Lagging behind is among reasons we decided to sack them,” he added.
