Title Ethiopia's ruling party secures 90% of votes in national election Source France 24 - World News
Description Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Prosperity Party won a landslide victory in legislative polls, giving it almost 90 percent of the seats. Abiy has led Ethiopia since 2018, and is increasingly criticised for growing authoritarianism. Northern Tigray, still recovering from a devastating 2020-22 conflict that claimed 600,000 lives, did not vote. Growing tensions between local and federal authorities have raised fears of a renewed conflict.
