Pleased to welcome @BillGates to #Ethiopia once again. Always appreciate the great support of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation @gatesfoundation on our work on agriculture, health and financial inclusion. Our visit today to review wheat cluster productivity and poultry farming is a testament to deepening our partnership on Ethiopia’s determined path to food sovereignty.
Today, we launched the 31st city-wide assembly of the education sector with the motto ‘highest dedication for quality education and prosperous Ethiopia!’
Education is on our priority agenda! We strongly believe that it is where we are healing our structural fractures and building the next generation.
Subsequent to our Early Childhood Development Program, in addition to transforming and expanding pre-primary education, we are reaching out to numerous services, including feeding 2 meals per day for more than 1 million children in the city.
The assembly will critically evaluate our last fiscal year’s performance and set out directions that support leapfrogging the sector.
I call upon all parties to stand with us and diligently engage in improving our shortcomings.
May the Lord bless #Ethiopia and its people.
