Jimma has been hosting us like a King. 

Jimma is one of the major towns in Ethiopia. History indicates that Jimma is among the Dessie and Asmara next to Addis Ababa where public services in Ethiopia used to be expanded. Nevertheless, it is now under development in its social and economic infrastructures compared to Adama (Nazareth), Hawassa, Bahirdar, Mekele etc. Unless one does not want to say it in public, the reason is only political.

This is one of my frequent visits to Jimma, Ethiopia. I already know Beshasha and other woredas that are in Gomma Zone of Oromia Regional state. The most widely known towns such as Agaro, Seka and Dembi that pave the way to Bedele are among my destinations. Coffee is served at its best quality and freshness. 

As Program Director of Light Ethiopia, I am visited the implementation of the School Feeding Program and School Wash Project in Jimma town. 

Jimma has no experience of being a center of political movement compared to the other cities Ethiopia.

I was humbled by the recognition of the school community for the School WASH project we were able to deliver and the School Feeding Program that has a significate contribution towards the improvement in School attendance, students' health and wellbeing and family economic situation. 

My prayer is only to be able to keep up my contribution towards the humble and kind people of Jimma.
