Albin Nyamoya (27 July 1924 - 31 January 2001)[1] was the Prime Minister of Burundi from 6 April 1964 — 7 January 1965 and again from 14 July 1972— 5 June 1973.
Nyamoya was born in 1924 in Ibuye. He was ethnically a Tutsi. He was educated at the Mugera Catholic Seminary and the Groupe Scolaire d'Astrida, studying veterinary science at the latter institution. He thereafter worked as a veterinarian assistant.
Nyamoya was elected to the National Assembly in 1961 as a member of the Union for National Progress (UPRONA) party. He served as Interior Minister from 1963 to 1964. He was re-elected to the assembly in May 1965.
On 14 July 1972, President Michel Micombero appointed Nyamoya Prime Minister of Burundi, making him the first person to hold such office since Micombero assumed power in November 1966.[2] Nyamoya's appointment was viewed by observers as a choice to relieve ethnic tensions.[2] He was dismissed from office on 6 June 1973.
Following his dismissal from office, Nyamoya turned to farming.
