Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Senior officials from Ethiopia\u2019s security and intelligence institutions have affirmed that the national reform agenda has significantly strengthened their capacity to execute missions with greater coordination, efficiency, and institutional resilience.<\/p>\n

The officials made the remarks at the National Security Conference that reviewed the country\u2019s security landscape across national, regional, and global contexts.<\/p>\n

They emphasized that reforms implemented in recent years have laid the foundation for a modern security architecture that responds effectively to evolving regional and global dynamics.<\/p>\n

Ethiopian Federal Police Commissioner General Demelash Gebremichael stated that building strong and independent institutions has been a central pillar of the reform.<\/p>\n

He further noted that the Federal Police has undergone substantial improvements in human resources, technological capability, and organizational structure.<\/p>\n

According to him, these advancements have enhanced the institution\u2019s ability to safeguard peace and security while ensuring readiness for future responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Ethiopia\u2019s security institutions are increasingly serving as stabilizing pillars not only domestically but also across neighboring countries, he added.<\/p>\n

National Intelligence and Security Service Deputy Director General Sisay Tola on his part said the reform has brought about greater integration in the management of security, intelligence, and information systems.<\/p>\n

He explained that institutions have transitioned from fragmented approaches to a more unified and coordinated operational framework.<\/p>\n

The reform process has progressed steadily over the past five years, enabling institutions to grow stronger while overcoming a range of challenges, he noted.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Head of the Oromia Administration and Security Bureau, Commissioner Ararsa Merdasa noted that the reform has improved coordination among security bodies, creating a conducive environment for joint operations.<\/p>\n

He added that notable progress has been achieved at the regional level in resolving security challenges through peaceful mechanisms and strengthening rule of law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Amhara Regional Police Commissioner Zelalem Mengiste also stated that institutional reforms have enhanced the country\u2019s capacity to effectively counter both internal and external security threats.<\/p>\n

He said the reforms have fostered complementary and mutually reinforcing institutions capable of addressing complex challenges.<\/p>\n

The officials further revealed that extensive preparations are underway to ensure the successful conduct of Ethiopia\u2019s upcoming seventh general election.<\/p>\n

They indicated that a comprehensive joint security plan, developed over the past eight months by incorporating lessons from the previous election, is already being implemented.<\/p>\n

According to them, coordinated efforts to maintain peace and stability have created favorable conditions for holding the election in a secure environment.<\/p>\n

The officials also affirmed that collaboration among security institutions will continue throughout the pre-election, election, and post-election periods to prevent potential threats and ensure a peaceful and orderly electoral process.<\/p>\n
