Eustache Ngabisha (d. 1972 in Ngozi, Burundi)[1] was a Burundian politician, and the father of Burundian president Pierre Nkurunziza.[2]
Ngabisha, who was Hutu and Roman Catholic,[3] was an associate of Louis Rwagasore in the early 1960s,[4] and subsequently became involved in politics, joining UPRONA.[3]
In 1965, he was elected to a term in the Parliament of Burundi,[5] and later served as governor of Ngozi Province and Kayanza Province[5] (also described as the "director" of Kabezi, and the "commissioner of the district (Ngozi-Kayanza)").[3]
During the 1972 genocide in Burundi, Ngabisha was imprisoned in Ngozi, and subsequently strangled in his cell with his own necktie.[1]
