HistoryThe party was established in 1991.[1] Although it refused to join the government formed by Sylvestre Nsanzimana later in the year, it joined Dismas Nsengiyaremye's government in April 1992.[2] As a result of its involvement with government,[2] and efforts by associates of President Juvénal Habyarimana,[1] the party split into pro- and anti-government factions. It joined the Rwandan Patriotic Front-led government in 1994 after the end of the genocide. Prosper Higiro became leader of the party in 2001.[2] In the 2003 parliamentary elections the party received 11% of the vote and won six of the 53 elected seats. In 2007 Protais Mitali was elected leader of the party.[2] A dispute over the conduct of the elections led to two MPs and five officials being expelled from the party.[2] The 2008 parliamentary elections saw the party's vote share fall to 7.5% as it was reduced to four seats. Higiro was nominated as the party's candidate for the 2010 presidential elections, receiving 1.4% of the vote. In the 2013 parliamentary elections the party received 9% of the vote, winning five seats. It was reduced to four seats in the 2018 parliamentary elections.
