1/3 People of #Ethiopia has democratically elected its government. GoE had declared humanitarian truce based ceasefire on 24th March. Supply of food, medicine, fuel, cash…were made possible. While GoE ready to sit for lasting peace talk, on 24th August #TPLF invaded Amhara and
2/3 Afar looting the fuel, food.. supplied to Tigray region. Why so much -ve stands & statements against Ethiopia. During the invasion no such statements, but only when TPLF is pushed back. Equating the #TPLF with GoE is wrong. Appeasements of the wrong & unlawful side
3/3 prolongs the conflict. Respect sovereignty of Ethiopia. Support a lasting peace through dialogue. Support #Ethiopia in its effort to restore law and order #DisarmTPLF.

Our future in #Ethiopia lies in the ability to produce adequate food and industrial crops. Irrigation is key for transforming #Ethiopia. Guidance is given by HE Dr Abiy to focus on low land irrigation and food security.
Wheat production in low land using large scale irrigation started to produce successful results
This season 20000 ha cultivation as a pilot using previously developed schemes in Afar, Oromia, Somalia and SNNPR expected to produce about 1million quintals.
We have about 350000 ha under cotton production in Awash valley alone. It is possible to substitute import of the 17M Quintals in short time. Other basins in Abbay, Omo, Genale Dawa, equipped irrigation areas for sugar states, cotton and others but not utilized.
