Agency launches construction of condos

HARAR – The construction of 1,034 condominiums that would be finalized in four years has been launched in Harar town with over 350 million birr, the Harari State Housing Development Agency said.

Agency Manager Abdulhakim Abdulmalik told WIC that of the total condominiums to be built in the region this fiscal year, the construction of 180 condominiums commenced in Deker Kebele last Saturday.

The condominiums would be built on over 7.3 hectares with infrastructure in the fiscal year, he added.

Upon completion of those 1,034 households would secure residential units.

The construction work will also create 4,400 permanent and casual jobs to organized youth, according to the manager.

Some 10 per cent of the condominium houses would be business enterprises which could help residents increase their income.

The Bureau envisages constructing over 8,140 condominiums in the coming four years, Abdulhakim said, adding that more than 350 million birr has been allocated for the execution of the project.

I am amazed and thrilled to know that one of the sons of Harar speaks strongly about the need to connect Harar to the rest of the world. Abdusamad Idris, who is vocal about the importance of addressing and acknowledging diversity in Ethiopia, talks to restore the legacy and unity of Ethiopia. I have known Abdusamad since the late fifties when we were neighbours, relatives, and most of all friends.

In short my name is Mohamed Ahmed Ghalib, and my mother's name is Taqiya Seif Mohamed and her mother is Amatullah Hussein.

I understand that Abdusamad will recognize the above names. I have not been in touch with him nor with his brothers and sisters since 1971.

This message is primarily to get connected to the people I loved and was once part of them and second to raise my voice the importance of not only recognizing Harar as a World Heritage, but to make it accessible to the rest of the world, especially to the Islamic scholars and those who appreciate and look for new adventures.

As a child I used to love to visit and play in the orchards of my grandparents. I remember that I also used to sleep in one of the houses located on the main street, Feras Magala in Harar that is a few metres away from the walled city..

I WOULD LIKE TO GET CONNECTED TO ABDUSAMAD IF POSSIBLE..WHOEVER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS BLOG, COULD HE/SHE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO HIM.

Kindly respect,
Mohamed Ahmed Ghalib (Al-Adeimi)
