The Parliament will tomorrow morning hold a burial ceremony, at Parliament buildings, for the late MP Tharcisse Shamakokera, who succumbed to prolonged illness on Tuesday night.

Flags will fly at half mast as a sign of mourning.

The Director of Communication and Public Outreach in the Parliament, Augustine Habimana,  said that mourners will  then attend a funeral service at Regina Pacis church in Remera after which his body will be laid to rest at Rusororo cemetery, in Kabuga.

Shamakokera was the RPF-Inkotanyi representative for Nyarugenge District. He is survived by his wife and four children.
