Ethiopia promotes book authored by premier Abiy

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia

Ethiopia on Tuesday promoted among the diplomatic community a book authored by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, who won Nobel Peace prize last month.

The book -- titled MEDEMER (Synergy) -- was released last month which contains Africa’s youngest leader’s philosophy on positive ways for taking the nation to prosperity.

“#MEDEMER is an idea that seeks to address the deficit in a new social, political, economic and foreign relations orientation. #MEDEMER builds on past successes while striving to correct mistakes in the effort to create a "more harmonious union”,” the Office of the Prime Minister wrote on Twitter.

One million copies of the book has been published in the local Amharic and Afan Oromo languages with an English version coming soon.
