Abbay Media Editor Note;
Just to remind the Irish Minister that poverty and hunger are mainly caused by bad governance, specially in the case of Ethiopia. Hope this trip becomes an eye opener.
Foreign Affairs Minister Micheál Martin is beginning a five-day visit to Uganda and Ethiopia today. Both are priority countries for the Government’s aid programme in the fight against poverty and hunger in Africa. The main purpose of the visit is to assess the impact of the programme in the fight against poverty and hunger in Africa. Advertisement Minister Martin will meet with local communities, key government ministers, representatives of Irish non-governmental organisations and business contacts. He will also visit schools, clinics and a hospice funded by Irish Aid.
