COMESA Court Hearings in Lusaka Adjourned for June 3 in Ethiopian Attorney’s Case

#Ethiopia Contender from Ethiopia takes issue with selection criteria as one of newly assigned judges alleged to be retiree from Mauritius
Court proceedings began this week in Lusaka, Zambia, in a case involving alleged irregularities in the appointment of judges to the COMESA Court of Justice, with Tewodros Getachew, the Ethiopian nominee, arguing he was unfairly overlooked in the selection process.
In November 2024, Tewodros was a leading candidate for a justiceship in the COMESA Court of Justice—the judicial arm of the Common Market for Eastern and...

The Giant That Couldn’t Sell: Tepid Ethio Telecom IPO Pokes Holes in Securities Trading Ambitions

When Ethiopia’s state telecom behemoth announced an initial public offering (IPO) in October 2024, few imagined it would struggle to sell. After all, Ethio telecom reported more than 93 billion Birr in revenues that year, raking in a massive profit of close to 22 billion Birr.

The company—a monopoly until recently—boasts around 80 million subscribers and counts itself among the highest earning state-owned enterprises, alongside Ethiopian Airlines, the Ethiopian Insurance Corporation, and the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia.

Time for honest reckoning

#Ethiopia Ethiopia’s government frequently touts its achievements in ensuring the prevalence of peace and security in the country. In what has become par for the course the Commissioner of the Ethiopian Federal Police (EFP) told journalists this week that in coordination with national defence forces and other security agencies EFP is doing a stellar job of protecting the peace and security of the nation. Yet, beneath this projection of stability, Ethiopia remains trapped in a cycle of conflict, repression, and systemic governance failures. From the Amhar...

Lyles looking for another fast run on London return

#Ethiopia World and Olympic champion Noah Lyles will race over 100m at the London Athletics Meet – part of the Wanda Diamond League – in the British capital on 19 July.
The US sprinter has fond memories of racing in London. His first appearance at this meeting came in 2023 when he won the 200m in a season’s best of 19.47 in an epic showdown with Letsile Tebogo. One month later, Lyles went on to win the 100m, 200m and 4x100m at the World Championships in Budapest.
Similarly, Lyles won in London again last year before going on to achieve success at the O...

World Bank Bets Big on State Bank Stability Ahead of Liberalization

Underperforming public financial institutions have long been a defining characteristic of Ethiopia’s financial sector, with the state-owned Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) and the Development Bank of Ethiopia (DBE) serving as prime examples of the struggles.

Despite accounting for half of the assets in the country’s banking industry, CBE finds itself mired in a debt crisis brought on by unbridled lending to other state-owned enterprises and government projects. Likewise, DBE continues to grapple with high non-performing loan (NPL) rates.

A clean city begins at the source

#Ethiopia At the crack of dawn, as I step out onto the streets of Addis Ababa, a familiar sight greets me: groups of women sweeping the roads with handmade brooms, their silhouettes framed by the rising sun. They gather the debris into piles, later transferred into trash bags for the city’s trucks to collect. These women—working diligently day after day—are the unsung custodians of our capital. Yet, despite their tireless efforts, the city remains far from clean.
A comment I once heard from a returnee lingers in my mind: “In the West, people clean stree...

Addis Ababa’s Unseen Crisis: Beyond the Numbers

#Ethiopia Mothers, children, and a city overwhelmed as a new face of hardship emerges
On an overcast afternoon in late May, with rain clouds gathering overhead, a woman in her 50s sat quietly on a curb near Women’s Square, a recently refurbished boulevard graced by a statue of a woman holding scales aloft, gazing into the distance. She was flanked by two of her children — a toddler asleep in her lap, swaddled in a thin cotton cloth, and a preteen absently shuffling pebbles at her feet.
The woman, a widow and mother of four, spoke softly as she asked pa...

Bloated External Debt, Entrenched Corruption Eroding African Growth: ECA Chief

#Ethiopia Sidi Ould Tah succeeds Adesina as AfDB President
Mounting external debt and widespread corruption are undermining Africa’s prospects at a time when technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) are transforming the global economy, says the Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa, Claver Gatete.
“External debt has swelled beyond USD 1.5 trillion, shrinking the fiscal space necessary for vital investments in health, education, infrastructure and inclusive growth,” Gatete said during a side event at the African Development Ban...

“The Way Out is Diplomacy”: Will Conflict Return to The North?

#Ethiopia Tensions between Ethiopia and Eritrea have escalated in recent months, prompting concerns over the possibility of renewed conflict. Ethiopia’s pursuit of direct maritime access, internal political divisions, and evolving regional alliances all play a role in the strained relationship, which analysts warn could boil over into the second war between the two countries in less than three decades.
Ethiopia, a landlocked nation since Eritrea's independence in 1993, has been vocal about its need for access to the Red Sea.  Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (...

Ethiopia, IMF staff agree programme review that could unlock $260 million

#Ethiopia Ethiopia and the International Monetary Fund have reached a staff-level agreement on the third review of the country’s $3.4 billion loan programme from the lender, the Fund said on Friday.
Once approved by the IMF’s Executive Board, Ethiopia will gain access to another $260 million in financing.
“The (Ethiopian) authorities’ policy actions in the first year of the programme have yielded strong results. The transition to a flexible exchange rate regime has proceeded with little disruption,” the IMF statement said.
“Macroeconomic indicators ha...

From Civil Wars to Civil Discourses

#Ethiopia This brief essay is inspired by an article entitled “Shift the Discourse from Decolonization to Dehegemonization” by Damtew Teferra, and a reflection on this article, “From Blackboards to Power Boards: Reclaiming Intellectual Sovereignty in Ethiopia’s Education System,” by Mohammed A. Ahmed. Both articles are comprehensive in their scope and powerful scholarly insights into their methodological rigor. And my gratitude to The Ethiopian Reporter, one of the best press media in Ethiopia, for bringing these articles to our attention, and creating, ...

Ministry Cracks Down on Academic Dishonesty in Higher Education

#Ethiopia Officials at the Ministry of Education say they are introducing stringent measures to prevent academic dishonesty, including the submission of dissertations generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Kora Tushune, a state minister of Education, elaborated on the efforts during the 23rd International Conference on Private Higher Education in Africa, organized by St. Mary’s University in Addis Ababa on May 29, 2025.

The public sector crisis is about dignity—not just wages

#Ethiopia Soaring living costs, stagnant wages, and anti-worker policies have pushed Ethiopia’s health workers to the brink—but they are fighting back like never before.
In recent weeks, health professionals across Ethiopia have staged protests, demanding salary increases and the recognition of long-denied benefits. These are the people who staff hospitals, clinics, and health posts—the backbone of the nation’s health system. Their frustration has reached a breaking point, with unions warning of nationwide strikes if the government continues to ignore t...

Chebet storms to second on world 3000m all-time list with 8:11.56 in Rabat

#Ethiopia Nine months on from becoming the Olympic 5000m and 10,000m champion in Paris,
Kenya’s Beatrice Chebet dropped down in distance to become the second-fastest women’s 3000m runner of all time at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Rabat on Sunday (25).
The 25-year-old won a race against the pace lights set for 8:15.00, kicking on the final lap to cross the finish line in 8:11.56 – an African record that moves her to No.2 on the world all-time list. Only China’s Wang Junxia with her world record of 8:06.11 from 1993 has ever gone faster.

EPRP Dares Gov't to Commit to Negotiations with Armed Groups

#Ethiopia ‎The Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party (EPRP) says its participation in next year’s national elections hinges on the federal government’s willingness to commit to negotiations with armed groups in the Oromia and Amhara regions.
The demand is on a list of five preconditions that officials of one of the oldest parties in the country say must be met by the government before voters head to the polls sometime in mid-2026.
‎Speaking to The Reporter, Mistereselassie Tamirat, EPRP secretary-general, argued meeting the demands is crucial to ensur...

Is Mustafa Mohamed Omer the next Abdi Ilay

#Ethiopia The intention of this article is not to predict the date or circumstances of president Mustafa Mohamed Omer’s departure from office, but rather to analyze the forces that brought him to power and to reflect on the hopes of thousands of Somalis—both within the region and across the diaspora—who once believed in a new era of democracy and justice. Paradoxically, despite seven years of relative peace, a pervasive sense of hopelessness and despair hangs over the Somali region today. Mustafa inherited a deeply fractured political system. Still, argu...
