ABSTRACT A survey study was carried out to identify the pests and predators of honey bee in Sidama and Gedeo zones during the year 2005 to 2006E.c in Dale and Shebedino woreda of Sidama zone and Kochere and Dilla zuria districts of Gedeo zone, and to asses indigenous control measures. Accordingly 20 beekeepers households per woreda were used for the structured questioner interview. Therefore a stratified random sampling method was used to select total 80 respondent households for the study. From the total of 80 sample households interviewed to generate qualitative and quantitative data on beekeeping, about 85.75% were male headed and the rest 14.5% were female headed with the average family size of 6 persons, with maximum and minimum family size of 7 and 2 persons, respectively. The experience of the respondents rests between 5-10 years (33.5%), greater than ten years (19.75%) and less than five years is (49.5%). This result shows that beekeeping can be performed by economically acti

As the Ethiopian Premier League football club competition only four matches away from conclusion, violence and break down of discipline in different venues are increasing in alarming speed. The country's football governing body, the Ethiopian Football Federation, (EFF), issued a statement on Saturday warning clubs to strictly respect law and order.

"This was terrible, many people were hurt, property was damaged, the chairs used as weapons to attack rivals," the EFF said in the statement. The EFF further said that it has begun disciplinary proceedings against Coffee after the totally unacceptable scenes at Friday's Coffee-Hawassa City match. TV footage appears to show Coffee fans throwing materials at the officials and an attempt to invade the pitch. The Addis Ababa Police Commission also said that as a res

Abstract The major goal of this study was to assess the role of indigenous institutions in handling/ settling conflicts in the Sidama Society. Sidama Communities are found in Sidama Zone, Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Regional State (SNNPRS). The research was conducted in Dalle woreda, Sidama Zone and it was purposively selected. Qualitative research methodology was employed in the study for its appropriateness to assess the role of indigenous institutions in handling/ settling conflicts in the study area and data was collected through the use of interview, key informant interview, focus group discussion, personal observation and document review. The results obtained from the study suggest that Conflicts in Sidama, as in anywhere else, may vary from trivial interpersonal disagreements to a serious dispute which might eventually lead to homicide. The most common conflict issues in Sidama are grazing land, water, farmland and borderland. There are many deeds and account
