On March 4, 2026, Addis Ababa city administration head Adanech Abaye participated in an Iftar meal-sharing ceremony with Muslims in low-income neighborhoods. The event took place in Ara Da Park, serving as a gesture of unity toward Muslim sisters and brothers in these areas.

In her message during the social service initiative, Adanech stated: "Today, we have conducted the Iftar sharing ceremony in Ara Da Park as an expression of unity with our Muslim sisters and brothers in low-income areas." She noted that this occurs amid the major Ramadan fast for the Muslim community and the Great Lent for Orthodox Christian followers, a time when offerings to the Creator increase.

Officials observed that such Iftar sharing with residents in low-income areas is expanding across all sub-cities. This promotes greater examples of the city's reflection, mercy, and forgiveness, serving as an ongoing initiative.
