About this statute

This article concerns the composition of the Abunzi Committee and the length of its members’ term of office. This article says the law was drafted, considered, and adopted in Ikinyarwanda. Prior legal provisions that conflict with this Law are repealed. This law starts on the day it is published in the Official Gazette of Rwanda. The Abunzi Committee at Cell and Sector levels has seven members, elected for a renewable five-year term, with at least 30% women. If elections cannot be held because of force majeure when the term ends, outgoing members keep working until replacements are elected.
