February 8, 2015

(THE INDEPENDENT) Ethiopia has refused to allow a delegation of parliamentarians to visit a British dissident facing the death penalty in the African country.

Andy Tsege, who is the secretary-general of a banned Ethiopian opposition movement, was sentenced to death at a trial held in his absence in 2009.  He was travelling from Dubai to Eritrea last June when he disappeared during a stopover in Yemen, in what campaigners regard as a politically motivated kidnapping.

Just a few decades ago, Ethiopia was a country defined by its famines, particularly between 1983-1985 when in excess of half a million people starved to death as a consequence of drought, crop failure and a brutal civil war

Against this backdrop, it is impressive that in recent years, Ethiopia has been experiencing stellar economic growth.
