    The House of People’s Representatives has extended the state of emergency by another four months.

    The house approved the motion to extend the state of emergency for a further four months by a majority vote with two votes against and three abstentions.

    On the occasion, Minister of Justice, Gedion Timotheos told the members of the parliament that the state of emergency has spared Amhara Region from distraction.

    Noting that the region’s security structure has been reorganized well and put it to operation, he said peace and stability had significantly improved.

    Moreover, he added that stability in the region has been restored following the efforts carried out in collaboration with the people.

    However, the minister stressed the need to extend the state of emergency with a view to further solidify the existing peace in the region with a level that could never be reversed.

    Similarly, the house has also extended the State of Emergency Inquiry Board’s mandate.
