An annual tradition
On the occasion of the holy month of Ramadan, we hosted members of the less fortunate in our society for the annual Iftar dinners. Tonight’s fast was broken with a spirit of compassion, unity, and community.
Today it’s quiet land. Tomorrow, it’s the heartbeat of travel and opportunity. This is where Bishoftu International Airport will come to life.

Together with First Lady Zinash Tayachew and senior government officials, we officially inaugurated the integrated Tulu Arara model village, which has elevated the rainy season volunteer and charity program to a higher level.
This model village is spread over an area of 7,000 square meters. Each house has been constructed to standard and contains a total of five rooms, including two bedrooms.
The village was designed to provide comfortable and dignified housing for 150 citizens at the household level. Its infrastructure provision includes internal roads, electricity and solar power, a physical fitness and recreation area, and green development initiatives. To sustainably improve the residents’ standard of living, the village has implemented an integrated system that incorporates production and market value chains. This development initiative combines dairy cattle and poultry farming along with backyard gardening, and an integrated commercial chain has been established that extends all the way to market outlets.
On the blessed occasion of Ethiopian Christmas (Genna), First Lady Zinash Tayachew and I were honored to share a holiday meal with the students of the Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak School for the Blind. Spending this special morning together was a powerful reminder of the true meaning of the spirit of Genna.
