Congratulations to all Ethiopians on another milestone in our journey toward food security and agricultural transformation. Today, we signed the Fertilizer Complex Shareholder Investment Agreement between Ethiopian Investment Holdings and Dangote Group. With an investment of $2.5 billion, this mega project will produce up to 3 million metric tons of fertilizer annually, placing Ethiopia among the largest producers globally.
This project will create jobs locally, ensure a reliable fertilizer supply for our farmers who have long faced challenges, and mark a decisive step in our path to food sovereignty. It strengthens Ethiopia’s competitiveness across the continent and reflects our commitment to executing strategic investments that serve our people and our future.
Following today’s signing, we will officially launch the project on site. We have started this journey, and we will finish it for our farmers, for our economy, and for Ethiopia’s future.
I had the honor of meeting with Ethiopian President Taye Atske Selassie. We discussed strengthening the U.S. relationship with Ethiopia by advancing regional peace and stability and broadening our economic engagement.
🚨 WATCH: "Ethiopia is a country with which we share a brotherly relationship and which has played a significant role in the peace of Somalia," said Southwest State President @Laftagareen speaking at the commemoration of the 129th anniversary of the Victory of Adwa held in Baidoa city, #Somalia.
This is one of those situations when you lost but still won. I’m grateful for last night. No regrets to get in ring one last time.
I almost died in June. Had 8 blood transfusions. Lost half my blood and 25lbs in hospital and had to fight to get healthy to fight so I won.
To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for. Thank you 🙏

VP Kamala Harris, Apr 2021:
“Wars have been fought over oil but in a short matter of time they will be fought over water.”
Indeed, countries like #Ethiopia who control the source of abundant cross-boundary water play a critical role in shaping geopolitics & economic dev.
