Ethiopia's political landscape has changed since Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed took office in April 2018.

One of the most impressive changes is taking place in the eastern part of the country, in the Somali Regional State.

The once powerful president Abdi Mohamed Omar, aka “Abdi Illey”, was removed last August with the help of the federal security forces.

There is now a new president, Mustafa Muhumed,whose first priority will have to be providing justice for the people.
