Ethiopian Parliament Renews Abiy Ahmed’s Term as Prime Minister

Ethiopia’s parliament reappointed Abiy Ahmed as prime minister on Monday, giving him another term in office.

The decision followed a landslide victory by his party in elections held in June.

That electoral result paved the way for the parliamentary move, with Abiy retaining the premiership after his party’s sweeping win.

Monday’s reappointment confirmed his continued leadership of the government following the June vote.
