During the engagement, Ethio telecom’s CEO presented the company’s remarkable transformation journey and key achievements realized over successive strategic periods. The presentation highlighted Ethio telecom’s strong operational and financial performance, continued market leadership, expanding digital ecosystem, and its pivotal role in advancing Ethiopia’s national digital transformation agenda and inclusive socio-economic development.

Discussions focused on pairing Afreximbank’s robust continental financing capabilities with Ethio telecom’s ambitious "Next Horizon: Digital and Beyond 2028" strategy. Ethio telecom showcased its successful evolution from a traditional telecom operator into a regional tech powerhouse, highlighting the massive growth of its digital ecosystem, including telebirr, Zemen Gebeya, TeleStream, advanced cloud services, and Z-nexus.

Impressed by Ethio telecom’s strong financial performance, leadership, and regional expansion goals, the Afreximbank delegation expressed strong interest in a long-term strategic financing partnership. Both institutions are committed to moving forward with tailored financing solutions that will drive digital infrastructure, support enterprise transformation, and foster sustainable economic development across the continent.

This milestone engagement marks an exciting step toward building a more connected, inclusive, and thriving African digital economy!

ያንጎ ኢትዮጵያ እና ጆኒ ራጋ ተፈራረሙ !!!
ያንጎ ኢትዮጵያ እና ጆኒ ራጋ "ውሃ እና እሳት" በተሰኘው አዲስ አልበም ሙዚቃን፣ ባህልን እና ማህበረሰብን ለማክበር አንድ ሆኑ !!!
…
አዲስ አበባ፣ ኢትዮጵያ፣ መስከረም 21, 2018 - ያንጎ ኢትዮጵያ ከ20 ዓመታት በኋላ በታላቅ ዝግጅት ተመልሶ ከመጣው አንጋፋው የኢትዮጵያ ድምፃዊ ጆኒ ራጋ ጋር "ውሃ እና እሳት" በተሰኘው አዲስ አልበሙ ላይ አብሮ መስራቱን በኩራት ያስታውቃል። ይህ አጋርነት በኢትዮጵያ ውስጥ ተወዳጅ ከሆኑ ድምፃውያን መካከል የአንዱን መመለስ ከማክበሩም በተጨማሪ፣ ያንጎ የአገር ውስጥ ተሰጥኦዎችን እና የባህል መገለጫዎችን ለመደገፍ ያለውን ቀጣይነት ያለው ቁርጠኝነት ያሳያል።

በያንጎ የኢትዮጵያ ተወካይ የሆኑት ዶ/ር ይቅናአለም አበበ ፕሮግራም ላይ ሲናገሩ፥ "የጆኒ ራጋ ሙዚቃ ሁሌም የኢትዮጵያን መንፈስ እና ነፍስ የሚወክል ነው። ለረጅም ጊዜ ሲጠበቅ በነበረው የድምፃዊው መመለስ ላይ ከእርሱ ጋር በመተባበራችን ትልቅ ክስተትን ከማክበር ባለፈ፣ ያንጎ የአገር ውስጥ ተሰጥኦዎች ማህበረሰብን በማነሳሳት፣ በማስተማር እና በማዋሀድ ባለው ኃይል ላይ ያለውን እምነት ዳግም እያረጋገጥን ነው። ይህ ትብብር ከመዝናኛ በላይ የሆነው ከኢትዮጵያ ጋር ያለንን ጥልቅ ግንኙነት እና ያንጎን የዕለት ተዕለት ሕይወታቸው አካል ላደረጉት አሽከርካሪዎቻችን፣ ደንበኞቻችን እና አድናቂዎቻችን ያለንን ክብር የሚያሳይ ነው" ብለዋል።

ጆኒ ራጋ በበኩሉ፥ "ከያንጎ ጋር ያለው ይህ ትብብር ስለ ዳግም መመለሴ አልበም ብቻ አይደለም፤ ፅናትን፣ ማህበረሰብን እና የኢትዮጵያን ሙዚቃ ጉዞን ስለማክበር ጭምር ነው። ላለፉት 20 ዓመታት፣ የኮንሰርት ጉብኝቶቺ እና የቀጥታ ስርጭት ትርኢቶች ወቅት ከጎኔ ለነበሩኝ ታማኝ አድናቂዎቼ ምስጋና ይገባቸዋል፤ በተለይም ለአርቲስቶች መብት እና በኢትዮጵያ የሮያሊቲ ክፍያ እንዲጀመር በምታገልበት ወቅት ከጎኔ ነበሩ። በ'ውሃ እና እሳት' አልበሜ፣ የተረጋጋ መንፈስን እና አስደሳች በዓላትን የሚተርኩ ታሪኮችን በማጋራት ለሙዚቃ ቤተሰቤ ውለታውን መመለስ እፈልጋለሁ። ከያንጎ ጋር መስራታችን ይህንን ራዕይ በየመንገዱ፣ በጉዟቸው እና በዕለት ተዕለት ሕይወታቸው ውስጥ ላሉ ሰዎች ይበልጥ ለማቅረብ ያስችለናል። በጋራ፣ አልበም ብቻ እያወጣን አይደለም፤ የሁላችንም የሆነ የባህል ክስተት እየፈጠርን ነው" ብሏል።

በዚህ አጋርነት ያንጎ የሙዚቃ አፍቃሪዎችን፣ አሽከርካሪዎችን እና ሰፊውን ማህበረሰብ የጆኒ ራጋን መመለስ በደስታ እንዲቀበሉ እና በ"ውሃ እና እሳት" አልበም እንዲዝናኑ ይጋብዛል። አድናቂዎች ከአልበሙ መውጣት ጋር ተያይዞ የሚኖሩ አዳዲስ መረጃዎችን፣ ልዩ ይዘቶችን እና ልዩ ዝግጅቶችን ለማግኘት የጆኒ ራጋን የማህበራዊ ትስስር ገጾች እንዲከታተሉ ጥሪ ቀርቧል።

ይህ ትብብር በያንጎ እና በጆኒ ራጋ መካከል ለረጅም ጊዜ በቆየው ግንኙነት ላይ የተገነባ ነው። ከዚህ ቀደም አርቲስቱ አሽከርካሪዎችን ስለ መተግበሪያው አጠቃቀም በሚያስተምር ተወዳጅ ማስታወቂያ (ጂንግል) ላይ ከያንጎ ጋር ሰርቷል፤ ይህም ልዩ የሆነውን የሙዚቃ ስልቱን ከተግባራዊ መመሪያ ጋር አጣምሮ አቅርቧል። ያ ሽርክና ሙዚቃ ማህበረሰቦችን በማገናኘት እና የአሽከርካሪዎችን ተሳትፎ በማሳደግ ረገድ ምን ያህል ከፍተኛ ሚና መጫወት እንደሚችል አሳይቷል። ይህ ደግሞ ያንጎ ፈጠራን ከባህል ጋር በማዋሀድ አገልግሎቶቹ ከአካባቢው ማህበረሰቦች ጋር ጥልቅ ግንኙነት እንዲፈጥሩ እና ለኢትዮጵያ የፈጠራ ኢኮኖሚ አዎንታዊ አስተዋፅኦ እንዲያደርጉ ያለውን ሰፊ ራዕይ ዳግም ያረጋግጣል።

For Immediate Release

Yango Ethiopia and Johnny Raga Unite to Celebrate Music, Culture, and Community with New Album Water and Fire

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2 October, 2025 - Yango Ethiopia is proud to announce its collaboration with legendary Ethiopian singer Johnny Raga on his new album Water and Fire, marking his major comeback after 20 years. This partnership not only celebrates the return of one of Ethiopia’s most iconic voices but also underscores Yango’s ongoing commitment to supporting local talent and cultural expression.

Speaking on the collaboration, Dr. Yekenalem Abebe, Representative of Yango in Ethiopia said: “Johnny Raga’s music has always carried the spirit and soul of Ethiopia. By partnering with him on this long-awaited comeback, we are not only celebrating a cultural milestone but also reaffirming Yango’s belief in the power of local talent to inspire, educate, and unite communities. This collaboration is more than entertainment—it is a reflection of our deep connection to Ethiopia and our drivers, customers, and fans who make Yango part of their daily lives.”

Johnny Raga said: "This collaboration with Yango is more than just about my comeback album; it’s about celebrating resilience, community, and the journey of Ethiopian music. Over the past 20 years, I’ve been blessed with loyal fans who stood by me through tours and live performances, even as I fought for artists’ rights and the introduction of royalties in Ethiopia. With Water and Fire, I want to give back to my music family by sharing stories of calm reflection and fiery celebration. Partnering with Yango allows us to bring this vision closer to the people on the streets, in their rides, and in their daily lives. Together, we’re not just releasing an album; we’re creating a cultural moment that belongs to all of us."

Through this partnership, Yango invites music lovers, drivers, and the wider community to embrace Johnny Raga’s return and enjoy the album Water and Fire. Fans are encouraged to follow Johnny Raga’s channels for updates, exclusive content, and special features surrounding the release.

The collaboration builds on a long-standing relationship between Yango and Johnny Raga. Previously, the artist worked with Yango to produce a popular jingle that educated drivers on platform use, blending his unique sound with practical guidance. That partnership proved the powerful role music can play in connecting communities and advancing driver engagement. This also reaffirms Yango’s broader vision of blending innovation with culture, ensuring its services resonate deeply with local communities while contributing positively to Ethiopia’s creative economy.

A young Ethiopian student in the UK is making headlines for his extraordinary determination and creativity. Kidus Tesera, 24, is cycling 780 miles across Britain on a bicycle he built almost entirely from recycled parts and wood.

Currently studying at Imperial College London, Kidus first discovered his passion for bike-building while repairing a secondhand bicycle at the university’s workshop. Inspired by the process, he went a step further—designing and crafting his own eco-friendly bike from discarded materials.

Now, his remarkable journey is not just a test of endurance, but also a statement about sustainability, innovation, and the resourceful spirit of Ethiopian youth abroad.

Kidus’ story is a powerful reminder: with creativity and determination, nothing is impossible—whether on the streets of Addis Ababa or the roads of the United Kingdom.

👏 What a story!

Kidus Tesera is not just riding a bike—he is riding a dream built by his own hands. An Ethiopian son proving, once again, that creativity and determination can carry us across any distance.

From recycled parts and wood, he shaped a machine. From courage and vision, he shaped a journey. 780 miles ( 1,255 KM) across the UK is more than a cycling adventure—it is a lesson to all of us: when we use what we have, we can go further than we ever imagined.

Kidus, you inspire Ethiopia, you inspire Africa, and you inspire the world. Keep pedaling forward—your story is fuel for the next generation of dreamers and doers. 🚴‍♂️✨

I had the privilege of attending a powerful and educational event organized by Taste of Ethiopia, featuring the well-known Dr. Wodajeneh Meharene.

His talk on mental health and mind care was incredibly impactful and timely.

I was especially grateful for the opportunity to participate in the discussion on suicide awareness—an issue that has deeply affected our community with the recent tragic loss of a young girl.

Dr. Wodeje’s insights were both compassionate and informative, offering much-needed guidance and support. Thank you to Taste of Ethiopia and the Ethiopian community for bringing such an important conversation to the forefront. #powerfu
