Addis Ababa: The diversity and solidarity of Ethiopians have been the strength of the nation demonstrated on several eras, including the victory of Adwa and the success registered in the construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), House of Federation (HoF) Speaker, Agengehu Teshager remarked.

Ethiopians across the nation have today marked ‘Diversity Day’ to highlight the significance of diversity to realizing inclusive nation building.

Particularly, the Day colorfully commemorated at the Ethiopian National Theater in Addis Ababa today in the presence of high ranking government officials and other invited guests.

On the occasion, Speaker Agegnehu described Ethiopia as a land of brave people, blessed with diversity and beauty.

Although there are elements that attempt to use Ethiopia’s unified identity as a source of conflict and hatred, Ethiopians have been thwarting these evil acts through their shared national values, the speaker explained.

The Speaker said the age old Ethiopian unity has
been one of the unique values that preserved the sovereignty of the country, stressing the need to further strength this golden value as it is crucial to ensuring inclusive prosperity and peace across the nation.

He stressed that the glorious history of victories chronicled by our predecessors in the mountains of Adwa continues to remain an eternal light even for the oppressed people who fell into slavery.

It is confirmed that Adwa’s victory is the victory achieved through the sacrifices of Ethiopians; the Speaker noted stating that this has ignited a strong courage to realizing the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam.

Minister of Peace Binalf Andualem for his part said the diversity of Ethiopians is a blessing which is a foundation for national peace, existence and beauty of the country.
