Addis Ababa, Ethiopia  –  Lidetu Ayalew , the founder and the longest- serving president of  Ethiopian Democratic Party  (EDP), rose to prominence in Ethiopia’s opposition politics during the highly contested 2005 general elections. The aftermath of that election, although it won Lidetu and his party seats in parliament, alienated him from a strong support base due to a split within the Coalition for Unity and Democracy  (CUD). The impact continued during the 2010 general elections as EDP failed to win a single sit in parliament. And in 2011, Lidetu stepped down from his party’s presidency and virtually vanished from active politics since then. He then traveled to UK to do his MA in Developmental Studies at the University of London, School of Oriental and African Studies. As the country warms up to the fifth general elections, Lidetu, a member of EDP’s Central Committee, has resurfaced with a new book titled  Tiyatre Boletica  (Theatre of Politics).  Solomon Goshu of The Reporte

Khartoum, Sudan  - Ethiopia’s Walia U-23  side was eliminated from the  All-Africa Games 4-1 on aggregate score following a 2-0 defeat here today. The Sudanese won the first leg match 2-1 in Dire Dawa. Walia’s coach Mariano Barreto  told the media earlier that his side has been working hard for the past 2 weeks and he believes that they could reverse the score but it turn out to be another empty promise. It is about time that the  Ethiopian Football Federation  does something about coach Barreto, who is said to receive $18,000/month in salary, as Ethiopia surely deserve a better result than the 1 victory, 1 draw &  6 defeats that the teams register in 8 matches under his care.
