More than 35 000 benefited with free food in Ethiopia

Addis Ababa, Sep 28 (Prensa Latina) Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed inaugurated Thursday the 20th Tesfa Berhan Feeding Center in the capital, a project launched in 2021 that already benefits more than 35 000 people.

Ahmed together with Mayoress Adanech Abiebie shared a Christmas meal with the beneficiaries of the center on the occasion of the Meskel celebration commemorating the finding of the True Cross of Christ.

On her social networking account X, formerly Twitter, Abiebiebie said the facility was built in Gulele sub-city, an area commonly known as Kechene Medhane-Alem and will provide nutritious food once a day to more than 500 elderly and low-income residents.

The Ethiopian capital’s administration is promoting such initiatives in order to serve free daily meals to help the needy and economically poor by building feeding centers throughout the city, she revealed.

He thanked the Tokuma Star Business Group for the construction of the building with an investment of 850,755 dollars, as well as the Bzuayehu Tadele Foundation that will permanently assume the feeding. ef/abo/ro/nmr
