Ethiopia is not a prisoner of history! Instead, forgive those who have wronged you, respect those you love, and even for yourself, it is a great country that is struggling on the road of rapid development to save itself from the vast table that will survive for the region! Every day is not wasted without proving the greatness of my country and people! The hope I see in the eyes of my countrymen in the places I've visited and the opportunities I've had is always my ability! Let's all strive for higher results in every field we are engaged in! The time is not far when Ethiopia will be greater than it is! Itoophiyaan hidhamtuu seenaa miti. Hinumaayyuu, warra ishii miidhaniif dhiifama gootee, warra ishii jaalatan kabajjee, biyya guddoo ofiishee qofaaf utuu hin ta'iin maaddiishee irraa hafaarraa naannaawasheef qooduuf daandii misoomaa saffisaa qabattee dhama'aa jirtudha! Utuu guddummaa biyyakoofi uummatakoo hin mirkaneessiin guyyaan tokkoyyu hin darbu. Naannoowwan irra deemee daawwadheefi carraawwanin argadhetti abdiin ijoollee biyyakoo argadhu keessatti argu kan yeroo hunda na jabeessuufi humna natti horudha! Hundi keenyayyuu damee itti bobbaane hundatti bu'aa olaanaaf cimnee haa hojjennu! Yeroon itti Itoophiyaan isa taatee turtee caalaa guddaa itti taatu fagoo miti! Ethiopia is not a prisoner of history, rather it is a great nation striving on a path of rapid development, forgiving those who did wrong to it, honoring those who loved it, and seeking to share her bounty not only with her own people but with the entire region! Not a single day passes without confirming the greatness of my country and my people. The hope I see in the eyes of my fellow citizens in the places I visit and the opportunities I encounter is the constant strength behind my dedication. Let us all strive together in our respective fields! The time Ethiopia will be even greater than it has ever been is not far off!
