Ethiopia's Justice Minister Hana Arayaselassie announced success in recovering international corruption cases entering the country, thanks to improved justice system effectiveness. The statement came during a meeting with Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed reviewing 100-day and long-term performance. A case involving $350 million accountability was fully investigated.
In Addis Ababa on Miyazya 16, 2018 (EFM), Justice Minister Hana Arayaselassie told Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed that the justice system's efficiency and effectiveness have improved.
Over the past nine years, numerous legal amendments addressed fundamental issues in the justice sector, she said. These reforms, covering institutional structures, procedures, and more, are now enshrined in law.
Recognizing traditional dispute resolution methods legally has enhanced justice accessibility, according to the minister. These methods bridge federal and regional institutions, yielding significant results.
A new justice strategy has been issued and is being implemented, bringing changes to prison justice administration. Notably, a corruption case carrying $350 million in accountability was fully investigated, marking a major success for Ethiopia and Africa.
