Rwanda: Membership in the FFP (Forum of Political Parties) is now voluntary

{A general meeting of the Consultative Forum of accredited political parties in Rwanda (FFP) has concluded that each political party has the right to join or not join the Forum, with the proviso that any newly approved Party should, to be part of FFP, write to the General Assembly of the Forum in order to get exclusive right which approves its membership.}

The decision was taken on November 28th 2013 during a general meeting of the Consultative Forum of accredited political parties in Rwanda (FFP).

The Communiqué issued at the end of the meeting said that the meeting was devoted to a thorough review of each section of the draft revision of the Organic Law regulating the Forum.

Among the reviewed articles, there is one which states that membership in FFP is voluntary.

Parties that wish to stay in the Forum will put their signatures to the document on the internal rules of the Forum.

For a new political party, the application will be written and addressed to the General Assembly of the Forum.
