Beauties in South Ethiopia, Sidama Zone


This week I have been to Bensa Daye Woreda in Sidama Zone and I took some pictures (Even though I am not a professional photographer,I tried my best to do it). Bensa Daye is some 135 km far away from Awassa. Naturally Bensa Daye is the source of Ethiopian coffee and other beautiful fruits like banana etc.
Tabour Terara ( Mount Tabour) just 5 km away from Awassa
Large Cattle field near Aleta Wondo, about 50 km away from Awassa
Sidama Cultural Hats. According to the experts these hats have 50 up to 100 years life span. Surprising!!!
Inset (False Banana) is the main edible plant in the whole parts of Southern region. It is evergreen plant. If a family has no any of it in its garden, that family is said to be  extremely poor in our culture. In my experience, I know many families who have no any “Inset” in their garden, that mean there are many poor families in the region. I am not talking about the poorness relative to the world but about the poorness of the people among themselves (the region). If we talk the poorness relative to the other, it has many worst things to be raised!!! FOVC works to end the cycle of poverty in the region, particularily in Shanto. We invite you to be a part of this mission to reach suffering children and families in the region. We can do it together!!!

Photo: Israel Eshetu by Mussie Girmay/VandykeSports One of the most significant moves of the Ethiopian winter transfer window is the departure of Isreal Eshetu from Mekelakeya to Hawassa City. The striker's move highlights the ongoing trades as some teams aim to strengthen and fill the gaps in their squads. The National Football Federation revealed so far that 17 transfers have been done by the time Eshetu's deal was confirmed. Eshetu was back to his hometown team Hawassa Kenema, where it all began for him. He is the second signing for Lakers in this transfer window after Abdissa Jemal joined them from Adama City. Wubetu Abate's Fasil Kenema have also made two signings. The first one is the left winger Afkrot Solomon from Hambericho Durame. The other signing is defender Habib Mohammed from Adama City. Gebremedhin Haile's Ethiopian Insurance were the first team to sign several players, including Hayder Sherefa from Adama City, Tekelamriam Shanko from Mekelakeya, Ananiya
