[Addis Standard] Addis Abeba -- Inflation has become emblematic of the Ethiopian economy. Prices have gone awry the last three years that the popular perception is "there seems to be no one stopping them from increasing". The last parliamentary speech of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and the time it took him to explain the scourge is a showcase to the magnitude of the problem. Often challenged in explaining economic issues, the premier was seen having difficulty to put a wholesome picture of what is happening.
