@Mahlet_B21 The Fano supporters say the government is in cahoots with the OLA, the OLA supporters say the government is in cahoots with Fano. Adding to the irony, we are now learning that, actually, it's Fano and the OLA who are in cahoots with one another!
This is rarely explained well. Ethiopia’s electoral system is based on the first-past-the-post principle: winning a seat does not require the support of all voters, only more votes than competing candidates. As a result, electoral victories should not automatically be interpreted as unanimous public endorsement or what journalists call a landslide. Understanding election outcomes requires a deeper appreciation of how the system actually works in this case. @reda_getachew breaks it down in a way that is accessible to ordinary citizens here.
The IMF and Ethiopia have reached a staff-level agreement on the fifth review of the country's four-year, US$3.4 billion Extended Credit Facility arrangement. Subject to Executive Board approval, Ethiopia will access about $468 million. https://t.co/5xk4TPhtrq
This morning, following yesterday’s 7th General Election, we officially opened the transformative Entoto to Kechene Medhanealem Riverside Development Project.
This landmark initiative has revitalized the heart of our capital, transforming once-degraded landscapes into vibrant green spaces through advanced soil conservation, river purification, and fruit parks seamlessly integrated with pedestrian and cycling trails.
Spanning a total riverside development corridor of 22.25 kilometers, the project stands as a tangible symbol of our progress and a practical demonstration of national growth, environmental restoration, and urban renewal.
