Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Ethiopians are marking the 16th National Flag Day under the theme \u201cThe Prestige of Our Flag: Guarantee for Unity and Sovereignty\u201d with various events across the nation.<\/p>\n

Gathered in harmony under the parasol of our flag, we shall uphold the unity of Ethiopia, Government Communication Service (GCS) said today in a message marking the 16th National Flag Day.<\/p>\n

The Ethiopian national flag is the symbol of sovereignty, the emblem of freedom and the embodiment of glory, GCS stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe flag of Ethiopia is the symbol of our sovereignty, the emblem of our freedom and the embodiment of our glory. It has been passed down from generation to generation by the blood of our brave ancestors. It is an emblem of victory that is the result of their sacrifice as well as the crucifix of their bones,\u201d according to GCS.<\/p>\n

The brave Ethiopians have sacrificed together for the love and honor of the flag to protect the sovereignty of Ethiopia, strengthen the freedom and dignity of the people.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the flag of Ethiopia reflects the sacrifices made for the sovereignty and national unity, GCS said, adding \u201cOur flag, which is a symbol of our country’s sovereignty, has remained strong because of the sacrifices made by Ethiopians in unity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we celebrate this year’s National Flag Day, we should consider that our national unity is our sovereignty and the guarantee of our existence.\u201d<\/p>\n

When our national unity is strengthened, Ethiopia’s sovereignty will stand on a firm foundation as well as the Ethiopian flag will be honored.<\/p>\n

All Ethiopians should demonstrate the respect and love for the country’s flag by participating in events that can protect national unity and sovereignty, the service urged.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to prove that we stand guard for our flag by respecting those who make sacrifices to ensure the peace and development of their country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ethiopia annually celebrates Flag Day on the first Monday of October of its calendar.<\/p>\n
