Addis Ababa, May 9, 2022 (FBC) –Early this morning, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed launched the annual home renovations program for impoverished communities in the Aware area.
It is to be recalled that the Prime Minister launched this annual initiative in the first year of his premiership four years ago with the intention of rehabilitating housing for elderlies, the infirm, disabled and the economically disadvantaged sections of society.
Since then, every year the home renovations program has ensued prior to the start of the rainy season. This year, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed is utilizing the proceeds of sale of his book ‘Ye Medemer Menged’ to finance the construction of housing units for up to 23 identified individuals in the Aware area.
The Premier called upon individuals, businesses and government institutions to join the annual effort of providing decent and humane living conditions for the many around us before the onset of the rainy season.
The office of the Prime Minister along with City Administration of Addis Ababa has so far renovated hundreds of houses in the capital and transformed livelihoods of many residents who were leading desperate lives.
