Due to different factors ,they chose to walk on foot until Kigali.Chatting whith them, Umuseke.rw reporter tried to make them understand that their concerns can be handled by local authorities before they present them to H.E.

Firmly they told him that H.E is the one to get an appropriate solution to their claims.The big majority of the group is made up by women ,residing in Nyamyumba Cell,Burushya Sector in Rubavu District.

Surprisingly, all those women are spouses of Late Hamuli Mishyitsi dead in 1994.

Their concerns relate to land issues whereby another widow of Hamuli is accused to intend to confiscate all the wealthy relating to land and exclude a Hamuli’ son named Hussein.

Women accuse  the Executive Secretary of the sector to back Zena Nyirabagenzi in the injustice she commits to Hamuli son.For them none else in good position to handle to situation better than President Paul Kagame .

The situation in fact:

Late Hamuli Mushyitsi married six women who  have him him 40 childern .After his death in 1994, he said that his wealth will be shared to all his legitimate children and wives.

His wealthy involves  twelve cultivable lands, four big houses and a car. The assets were shared accordingly without any serious crisis among them.

However,afterwads came another  son of Mishyitsi named Mahangaiko Hussein Mishyitsi claiming that he deserves a heritage as other sons of late Mishyitsi.

Zena denies  the truthfulness of Hussein’s claims .The matter has been brought to Court and is labeled RC139/98 NYAMY.After the legal procedures on the matter ,Hussein was declared worthy to get the heritage and five other ladies agreed on the matter.

As the son wanted to get control of the wealthy as decided by the court, another woman called Zena Nyirabagenzi  having another court deceision labeled 139/98 NYAMY came in and said the  decision was unfair.

At that very court decision paper is added a clause that the son Hussein will receive the heritage minus one house that is Zena’ own property.

Zena explains that paper is a forgery of Hussein .These accusation has brought son Hussein to prison.After full investigation on the matter the son was found innocent and released accordingly.

Hussein accuses former Executive secretary of Nyamyumba to have been an accomplice of Zena and that he deserves more justice.

During recent land registration in the area, other remaining wives surprisingly found that the land ownership final document was handled to Zena Nyirabagenzi .

They then proceeded to justice where they accuse Zena to have collaborated with Local Executive Secretary, Martin Habaimana, in masterminding the operation.

According  to the Land Legistartion Authoriy agent  who registerd the land , monetary compansations for people concerned tells that compensation will be allocated to Nyamyumba Cell Bank Account in order to allocate them to the  legitimate heir.

Three days later ,three policemen came with Madame Zena and they signed a paper testifying that the house is hers and took a photo of Zena in order to help her being in position to receive money as a compensation for a raod that is set to be built in the area where the house is built.

Uwimana Immaculée one of the five wives accusing Zena told Umuseke.rw that ‘Police agents terrify them in order to abandon their search for justice in the matter ,because according to her ,compensations have been given to Zena so that their efforts are worthless’

“We addressed a letter to local police station to deal with our matter but in vain. Consequently we took a firm decision to present our issue to H.E, hoping that He will take adequate decisions on the matter” she told Umuseke.rw reporter in Rubavu.

Habimana Martin,Executive Secretary of Nyamyumba  told Umuseke.rw that the matter got worse as when compensation procedures were undertaken. He underlines that the issue is known and that different entities strive to provide a lasting solution about it.

Nyamyumba local residents surprised at seeing women and children embarking for Kigali trip

However ,as wives are not satisfied they decided to come in Kigali where they intend  to present their concerns to H.E Paul Kagame who, according to them, will resolve the equation.

Today’s news updates on their trip is that they got a lift from Musanze and arrived at Nyabugogo yesterday evening.

Land related issues in Rwanda had brought to numerous killings among family members and relatives,a serious issue that RNP deals with in recent times.
