Mwamikazi Nidi Ririkumutima Bizima Bitazimiza Mwezi, commonly known as Ririkumutima, (died 28 July 1917) was Queen Regent of Burundi from 1908 to her death. She was married to Burundian king, Mwezi Gisabo in the mid 1890s and she was his favourite wife. However, when king Gisabo died in 1908, Ririkumutima fell out of royalty as one of his sons became king.[1] This led to a lot of strife in the kingdom.
