In a series of public announcements, several Rwandans have come forward to request changes to their names. The individuals, including TUYISHIME Lucy, MUKAMUGANGA Mediatrice, and IRANKUNDA Chantal, among others, have provided their reasons for seeking the name changes. According to the announcements, the requests have been made through official channels and are currently being processed.
The reasons behind the name change requests vary, with some individuals citing personal or professional motivations. For instance, UWAMAHORO Diane has requested to change her name to UMUTESI DIANE, while HARIMENSHI Jean Bosco wishes to be known as MANZI Jean Bosco. The announcements do not provide detailed explanations for the requested changes, but they do indicate that the individuals have taken the necessary steps to formally request the alterations.
The name change requests have been published in a local newspaper, as is customary in Rwanda. The publications include the current and proposed names of the individuals, as well as a brief statement outlining the reasons for the requested change. This allows for public scrutiny and potential objections to the requests.
Some of the individuals seeking name changes include ISHIMWE Manzi Irisa Keilla, who wishes to be known as IRISA NINA KIARA, and KALISA Siladj, who requests to be called KALISA Frank. Others, such as MUKAKAGENZA Venerande and DUSABE Prudence, are also seeking to change their names to MUKAKAGENZA VANESSA and DUSABE Deborah, respectively.
The process of changing one's name in Rwanda involves submitting a formal request to the relevant authorities, along with supporting documentation and a valid reason for the change. The requests are then published in a newspaper to allow for public feedback and scrutiny. If no objections are raised, the name change can be approved and registered.
In addition to the individual name change requests, a notice has been published regarding the reinstatement of a company in the relevant register. The notice, which does not provide further details, is a separate matter from the individual name change requests.
The individuals who have requested name changes include UWIZEYEMALIYA Marie Odile, who wishes to be known as NSANZABANA Marie-Odile, and NYANDAGAZI Theoneste, who requests to be called NDAHIMANA THEONESTE. Others, such as NTIMUGURA Rodgers and UWIRINGIYIMANA Ruth, are also seeking to change their names to KAYONGA Rodgers and IMENA Ruth, respectively.
