Unless we get confirmation that public owned financial institutions are safe no need to invest there.
The banks got robbed by TPLF Effort conglomerate for decades, now it is being robbed by ODP-OLF coalition.
The bank is not insured for loss that arise from being held up By OLF gunpoint or from being robbed by ODP cadres white collar crimes . Plus the foreign debt us upto the nake of Ethiopia. Diaspora might as well start paying the debt right there in the diaspora to the foreign governments in the name of Ethiopian people, rather than fall for this scam called ETHIOPIA PARTNERSHIP FORUM.
