Ananie Nkurunziza was a presenter (animateur) on the Rwandan radio station Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines, which played a significant role in promoting the Rwandan Genocide. Like the station's other broadcasters, Nkurunziza incited violence against Tutsi and moderate Hutu on the air.[2]

On air, Nkurunziza acted as a political analyst, taking on the role of a serious intellectual and recounting foreign news.[3] Segments by Nkurunziza accounted for approximately 11% of RTLM airtime. As an animateur, he received the fourth most airtime.[4]

Before Joining RTLM, Nkurunziza worked for an intelligence officer. He maintained his links to the Rwandan intelligence and police communities during his tenure at RTLM.[5]

Nkurunziza's whereabouts were unknown as of 2007.[6]
