Today, we inaugurated the Entoto-Kebena River & Riverside Development, 87.6 hectares, 10.5 km of riverside transformation featuring flood protection, modern bridges, and expansive green spaces, making Addis Ababa a climate-resilient, world-class capital.
We remain committed to building a city our people deserve!
#EthiopiaDelivers
I extend my heartfelt condolences to the family of Simonpietro Salini and the entire @Webuild_Group on his passing. Ethiopia is indebted to Simonpietro Salini for his contributions to the construction of the Legadadi Dam, Addis Ababa University’s Kennedy Library, the Tana Beles Project, the Gilgel Gibe 1, 2, and 3 hydroelectric power projects, and the GERD.
His love for Ethiopia is exemplified through his involvement in the nation's enduring development projects—a legacy continued by his son, Pietro Salini.
May his soul rest in peace.
Ethiopia has recently seen a significant influx of business delegations seeking to invest and explore its potential. The arrival of a high-level Saudi business delegation of 79 members in Addis Ababa today is further testament to the growing investment opportunities in Ethiopia, proving once again that Ethiopia is the place to be for savvy investors.
I welcome my dear brother and friend His Highness Sheikh @MohamedBinZayed to #Ethiopia. The growing relations between our two countries is rooted in deep mutual respect and a shared vision for mutual progress. We will continue collaborating in pursuit of sustainable development.
Ethiopia has built and operationalized 13 industry parks that have enabled full time employment for thousands.
We have also built and operationalized agro-processing industry parks.
Together with World Bank President Ajay Banga we visited two industries actively producing in one of our nationwide industry parks. Ethiopia has great potential and is creating a conducive environment for more investments in various industries.
Together with First Lady Zinash, we have inaugurated the Wolaita Sodo Flour and Bread Factory, which is part of the Office of the First Lady’s many pro-poor initiatives and a pathway to aspirations to make #Ethiopia a regional and continental bread basket.
