		On July 171993, after a meeting between President Habyarimana and all five parties, Agathe Uwilinigiyimana became the first woman prime minister of Rwanda, replacing Dr Nsensiyaremye, the man who had appointed her Minister of Education, and whose exoneration of the president was unpopular with the other parties.
		The talks between President Habyarimana, Uwilingiyimana, and the Rwandan Patriotic Front were never concluded, because the president's plane was rocketed on April 61994.
		Eye witnesses to the inquiry on U.N. actions say that Rwandan soldiers entered the compound at 10 am, and searched it for Agathe Uwilingiyimana; she was eventually found, with her husband, and they were shot and killed by the presidential guard on the morning of April 71994.

	Agathe Uwilingiyimana - Wikipedia
		Agathe Uwilingiyimana (1953 - 7 april 1994) was een Rwandees politicus.
		Agathe Uwilingiyimana, een Hutu, werd in 1953 geboren in het dorpje Nyaruhengeri, ongeveer 140 kilometer ten zuidoosten van Kigali, de hoofdstad van Rwanda.
		Aangezien Uwilingiyimana niet de machtsbasis had van de andere kandidaten, en niet geliefd was door de Habyarima, geloofden de meeste observatoren dat haar aanstelling als eerste minister gebaseerd was op een politieke berekening van de president, zodat zij de oppositie zou verdelen, waardoor deze beheersbaar werd.

		Agathe, herself, who was in practical control of all the government ministries including the civilian intelligence service, was in reality little more than a puppet of Faustin Twagiramungu, the prime minister designate under the Arusha designed Broad-Based Transitional Government that was to be sworn in to conduct national elections.
		Rumours of another coup attempt by Agathe on behalf of the RPF were circulated on April 4th, I994 when a meeting was held between Agathe and some officers from the south of the country, for the most part gendarme junior officers.
		Rawson must have been aware that Agathe had left her house and was now located in the UNDP complex but inexplicably he failed to mention this fact to the Rwandan officers.

	Sylvie Kanigi
		Her appointment, followed less than a month later by that of Agathe Uwilingiyimana as prime minister in neighboring Rwanda, is certainly a political watershed in modern African history.
		Like Uwilingiyimana, Kanigi became her country's head of government at a crucial time in the political transition away from dictatorship and minority ethnic rule to attempts at liberal democracy.
		While she was in office for only about one year, her tenure in that post certainly has left a lasting impact on Burundi, one of Africa's most troubled nations which, like neighboring Rwanda, has suffered through periods of ethnic genocide in the past 30 years.

	AFT: Publications: American Educator: Genocide in Rwanda
		By the late 1980s, the Rwandan government, led by President Habyarimana and his wife Madame Agathe Habyarimana’s influential family, was increasingly totalitarian--in control of the media, most jobs, the country’s one political party and much more.
		The President and his wife [Madame Agathe Habyarimana] often turned out to be cheered at these spectacles, while in private the members of the interhamwe were organized into small neighborhood bands, drew up lists of Tutsis, and went on retreats to practice burning houses, tossing grenades, and hacking dummies up with machetes.
		The assassins’ first priority was to eliminate Hutu opposition leaders, including the Hutu Prime Minister, Agathe Uwilingiyimana, whose house was one of many that were surrounded at daybreak on April 7.
