ADDIS ABABA – Tigray State Interim Administration Executive Director Mulu Nega (Ph.D) has expressed appreciation for the federal governments’ support for rehabilitation, relief, emergencies, and budget provision.

According to Mulu, the federal government’s commitment is highly appreciated, particularly in the areas of humanitarian assistance, recovery, rehabilitation and budgeting.

The federal government is committed to providing the required budget to the state, although the budget is not an urgent matter at the moment, according to its recent statement on Ethiopia’s state of emergency.

He added that currently the most burning problems are the huge demand for humanitarian assistance, as many people are at risk of food shortages. In response to this, relief and emergency activities are on the right track in the state. “We have begun to provide food to the needy population at all levels,” he said.

In addition, he noted, the interim administration has agreed with the responsible sectors of the federal government to accelerate and strengthen these activities.

“The follow-up activities are going well, but the only thing is to strengthen distribution to woredas and other cities. This is also going well,” according to Mulu.
