Ethiopia’s First Femail President

Ethiopia just made history as she elects her first female president in the person of Sahle-Work Zewde, making her become the first female head of state in Africa. To us that’s huge and a big deal. Words reaching us is that the Ethiopian prime minister just passed the gender equality bill into and then this happens.

A big congratulations to Ethiopia as a Nation and to her as an Individual. All of us at MIPAD are happy about this story and we wish her the very best. Learn more about her here
