As bold and resilient as ever, Ethiopia has once again surprised the world with its massive electoral participation. Over 54 million Ethiopians turned out to cast their votes peacefully, responsibly and decisively in the historic 2026 Grand National Elections.

This stands as a great achievement for our country and a clear message to those who doubted Ethiopia’s unity, strength and democratic progress.

Without any doubt, this remarkable turnout reflects strong civic commitment, national unity and growing democratic maturity. Across the country, citizens exercised their constitutional right in an atmosphere marked by peace, order and active public participation.

Today, millions of Ethiopians from all walks of life are flocking to the polls as the country embarks on its 7th general election. Starting at 6 AM, citizens across the nation are exercising their democratic rights, with a staggering 54 million registered voters participating in this pivotal moment for Ethiopia.

This election is a testament to Ethiopia's status as Africa's largest democracy, showcasing the engagement of its citizens through the participation of 42 political parties and 80 independent candidates. The scale of voter involvement, coupled with the remarkable political inclusivity and civic participation, highlights the growing democratic culture in Ethiopia and the strong commitment of its people to shape the nation's future through the ballot box.

International observers, including the African Union Election Observation Mission led by former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta and The Head of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Election Observation Mission, Dr. Speciosa Wandira-Kazibwe are closely monitoring the election process. Their presence underscores the importance of transparency and fairness in this democratic exercise.

As Ethiopians come together to make their voices heard, this election represents not just a choice for leadership, but a collective step towards a brighter future. The commitment of the Ethiopian people to engage in the democratic process is commendable and reflects their aspirations for peace, stability, and progress.

Today, as the proud home of the African Union, Ethiopia stands shoulder to shoulder with every African nation in that same spirit of unity.The work is far from over. Let us move from words to action, from promises to progress.

Africa's greatest resource has always been her people, and together, WE RISE!

Today, I had the distinct honor of convening a special ceremony to recognize and celebrate the exceptional dedication of the staff at the Ethiopian Embassy in Kenya. On this occasion, distinguished staff members were presented with special certificates in acknowledgment of their unwavering commitment, exemplary performance, and prompt responsiveness to national calls on various critical occasions.

During the same event, we had the great pleasure of warmly welcoming our newly assigned diplomats to the Mission. In parallel, a heartfelt appreciation and recognition program was held to honor our departing diplomats, who successfully completed their tenure at the Embassy. The event was graced by the presence of distinguished leaders of the Ethiopian community associations and esteemed members of the Ethiopian Diaspora residing in Kenya.

I wish to express my sincere and profound gratitude to all my diplomats for their sustained motivation, deep dedication, remarkable results, and their constructive response to the national calls made upon them at different times. I extend my best wishes for a rewarding and successful tenure to the newly assigned diplomats joining our Embassy, as well as to those returning home after the successful completion of their assignment.

It is evident that by organizing and strengthening Ethiopians and people of Ethiopian descent, they can transcend the role of passive observers and emerge as principal actors in the ongoing journey of national development and prosperity. This collective effort will further reinforce their enduring connection with their motherland—the land of their heritage and ancestry. The relaunch of the Ethiopian and People of Ethiopian Descent Association in Kenya is grounded in the objective of safeguarding the dignity and pride of our citizens abroad, while enabling them to take a leading role in advancing investment, job creation, professional and skills transfer, as well as digital economic development in our country. Below are the messages conveyed during the relaunch ceremony by the distinguished guests of honor, H.E. Abadula Gemeda, Former Speaker of House of People’s Representatives:

Once a neglected and hazardous area, the Arada district has been reimagined into a magnificent urban sanctuary.

For us, Ethiopia is not merely a dream to be envisioned, it is a reality to be built. We are building a nation that is healthy, resilient, and full of promise for future generations that is also a leader in Africa and a formidable competitor on the global stage. Each day, we continue to turn this promise into reality.

I held a productive bilateral meeting with my counterpart, His Excellency Joseph Nyuma Boakai, President of the Republic of Liberia. The engagement provided a valuable opportunity to further strengthen and expand our longstanding partnership, particularly in the areas of peacekeeping, in sectors of mutual interest. Following the bilateral meeting, we also presided over the signing of Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs), underscoring the concrete commitment of our two nations to advancing shared priorities. These agreements serve as an important foundation for Ethiopia to share its experiences in rapid transformation with fellow African nations, while also learning from the diverse perspectives of our partners to foster sustainable, African-led solutions for the advancement of the continent as a whole.

[Abiy Ahmed Ali 🇪🇹 @AbiyAhmedAli]

It is my distinct honour to extend a formal welcome to His Excellency Joseph Nyuma Boakai, President of the Republic of Liberia, to the National Palace on the occasion of his official visit to Ethiopia. Ethiopia and Liberia share longstanding and distinguished relations, rooted in a common history of resilience, having remained uncolonized, and in their pioneering roles as steadfast advocates for the independence and unity of the African continent. Today, as ever, Ethiopia’s table remains open and expansive, offering its immense potential and enduring friendship to all who walk alongside us. In this spirit, I am confident that this visit will mark a significant milestone in the diplomatic relations between our two countries, anchoring our shared aspirations firmly in the bedrock of concrete action.
