Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) Secretary General, Peter Lam Both, and Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) Politburo Member Simbarashe S. Mumbengegwi commended the drastic transformation Addis Ababa has carried out recently through massive intensive infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

Representatives of foreign sister political parties from Africa and elsewhere attended the Second Congress of Prosperity Party (PP) in Addis Ababa.<\/p>\n

Having visited the Unity Park and the National Palace Museum in Addis Ababa, SPLM secretary general and ZANU-PF politburo member expressed their admiration for Ethiopia’s progress and its commitment to preserving heritages.<\/p>\n

Peter Lam Both, who had previously studied at Addis Ababa University, remarked on the “incredible” transformation of the city since his last visit, wondering he could not find a place he had frequented in Piassa.<\/p>\n

He highlighted the significant advancements in infrastructure, including roads, buildings, bridges, and railways.<\/p>\n

The secretary-general was particularly impressed by the transformation of the premises on the national palace from a “no-go area” to a vibrant public space, now known as the Unity Park, where children play and tourists come to explore.<\/p>\n

“This is a great achievement,” Both stated, crediting it to the President of the Prosperity Party for this remarkable accomplishment.<\/p>\n

Simbarashe S. Mumbengegwi of Zimbabwe on his part echoed similar sentiments, describing the National Palace as an “extremely impressive” and a “store of history and culture of the Ethiopian people.”<\/p>\n

The politburo member recalled the strong relationship between Zimbabwe and Ethiopia, which provided crucial support for the liberation of Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

Mumbengegwi lauded the extremely impressive developments in Addis Ababa, particularly the infrastructure development and cleanliness of the city.<\/p>\n

He congratulated the PP for ushering in an era of prosperity and massive infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, he noted the significance of Addis Ababa as the capital of the African continent and the headquarters of the African Union.<\/p>\n

Mumbengegwi finally stated that ZANU-PF and the Prosperity Party are in the process of formalizing cooperation agreements.<\/p>\n
