Ntahontuye was appointed just eight months after he was named Minister of Finance, Budget, and Planning.
His new role was officially confirmed by the Burundian Senate on the same day, shortly after it elected its new leadership, headed by Gervais Ndirakobuca.
Ntahontuye holds a master's degree in statistics from the University of Burundi. He has worked in the fields of planning and research with several international organizations, including Care International, Oxfam, and the Global Fund, both within Burundi and across the region.
Before being appointed Minister of Finance in December 2024, Ntahontuye served as Chairperson of the Parliamentary Committee responsible for monitoring public resource management, finance, economic affairs, and national planning.
