The kind of mind this president has is the reason why their airline (Ethiopian airline) is working effectively. Strictly for business and not for family members and girlfriends, unlike Nigerian politicians who would have allowed their girlfriends order pilot to even fly to sambisa, go to their village to flaunt and as well fly their aged grandmother without tooth abroad, while the girlfriends smile telling people around her that it is the lords doing even though kpekus is involved.
