Today, I attended the national summit and exhibition held under the theme "Data Sovereignty for Policy Autonomy," which celebrated Ethiopia's monumental achievement in its journey toward data and statistical sovereignty.
The remarkable progress I observed in this sector is highly encouraging. In this era, data is a strategic asset and a foundational pillar of sovereignty essential for building a strong nation-state. Because borrowed data or reliance on external entities cannot fulfil our national aspirations, collecting and analysing our own data through domestic capacity is a critical input to guarantee policy independence.
Above all, witnessing data collection and analysis being driven by the knowledge and skills of our own citizens is a source of immense national pride. Furthermore, our focus on data must not only target quantifiable metrics but must also centre on human-centric approaches that bring tangible improvements to the lives of our citizens.

Dangote Gets Hero’s Welcome in Ethiopia, Raises Investment to $4bn
President of Dangote Industries Limited, Aliko Dangote, received a warm welcome in Gode, Ethiopia, where he was hosted by Prime Minister Dr. Abiy Ahmed.
Both leaders visited the site of the proposed fertiliser plant to assess ongoing construction. Ethiopia had signed a shareholders’ agreement with Dangote Group in August last year to establish a urea plant with a capacity of three million metric tonnes annually.
Dangote announced an increase in investment from $2.5 billion to over $4 billion, reflecting expanded scope, including a 110km pipeline, a 120MW power plant, a polypropylene packaging facility, and a two-million-tonne NPK blending plant.
Prime Minister Abiy described the project as a strategic initiative to boost agriculture, enhance food security, and reduce import dependence. He noted steady construction progress and expressed confidence in its impact on farmers, job creation, and economic growth.
The project reinforces Dangote Group’s commitment to industrial development across Africa.

Last August, in partnership with the Dangote Group, we made significant progress by signing a landmark shareholders’ agreement for a fertilizer plant with a planned annual production capacity of 3 million metric tons of urea. In October 2025, we officially launched construction of the project.
This initiative represents far more than infrastructure. It is a strategic investment in Ethiopia’s agricultural transformation, food security, industrial growth, and economic self-reliance. Once completed, the fertilizer plant will play a vital role in strengthening local production capacity, reducing dependence on imports, supporting millions of farmers, and creating new opportunities for jobs and investment.
This morning, together with @AlikoDangote, I visited the project site in Gode to assess the progress achieved so far. I am encouraged by the steady momentum across the project area. Construction activities are advancing as planned across multiple sections of the site, reflecting the strong commitment and collaboration driving this important national project forward.

The completion and inauguration of the Gelan Gura Industrial Park marks a monumental milestone in our journey toward prosperity, aimed bolstering our economy. The facility has been constructed on 43 hectares of land and inaugurated today. Beyond creating a highly conducive business environment for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), it opens the doors of employment for thousands of our youth.
This presents a grand opportunity for our nation's manufacturers to enhance their capacity, boost productivity, and increase competitiveness, allowing them to make a significant impact on our city, our country, and the wider region. By manufacturing import-substituting goods, the park establishes a direct and efficient commercial link between producers and consumers. Furthermore, by supplying products to the international market, it will play a pivotal role in both conserving and growing our nation's foreign currency reserves.

I would like to thank all the commissioners who, over the past years, have patiently and professionally worked with a high standard of ethics to advance the national dialogue process and bring it to its current stage.
A culture of dialogue is extremely important for countries like Ethiopia. Building a strong civic culture also requires continuous practice of discussion and a mature spirit of mutual understanding. The process so far has demonstrated the great value of mutual listening at every level of our society. The process has reflected the views and discussion outcomes of more than 90 percent of Ethiopians across all corners of our country.
At this time, as the dialogue process, which carries significant national importance, transitions into its next phase aimed at producing tangible results, all stakeholders should contribute constructively and uphold a shared, firm commitment to ensuring peace, unity, and lasting stability for our country.

@AbiyAhmedAli True leadership is not only about leading a nation, but creating space for every voice to be heard. Your commitment to dialogue, unity, and lasting peace gives hope for a stronger Ethiopia. History will remember leaders who chose understanding over division. Respect, Abichye!!!

Good to see current US Admin finally recognize Ethiopia's geostrategic importance. US shouldn't choose between Egypt or Ethiopia, as both can be valued partners. If Ethiopia settles domestic problems its value grows exponentially!
