The '''Prime Minister of Surrow''' was the {{wp|head of government}} of [[Surrow]] from when it was granted full {{wp|self-government}} by [[Rythene]] in 1915 until Surrow was granted independence in 1950. By custom, the Prime Minister of Surrow was the leader of the largest party in the [[Parliament of Surrow|Surrowese Parliament]], or otherwise had the most support among the members of Parliament.


It was first announced by [[Kupakwashe Ngonidzashe]] on 2 August, 2019, as part of a deal with the [[Global Institute of Fiscal Affairs]], in which Rwizikuru would receive [[Euclo|€]]100,000,000, which also included {{wp|structural adjustment}}: as the terms included removing the [[Monarchy of Rwizikuru|Rwizikuran monarch]]'s financial powers, a constitution was seen as necessary to replace the ''[[Basic Law of Rwizikuru]]''. On 1 October, 2019, after preparations, and [[Rwizikuran constitutional assembly elections, 2019|electing]] twelve of the twenty-seven members of the constitutional assembly, new monarch [[Munashe Ngonidzashe]] formally began the proceedings.
