WATCH: LATEST NEWS SURROUNDING THE NATIONAL NEGRO OPERA COMPANY

Abiy's government and the regional one run by the Tigray People's Liberation Front each consider the other illegitimate.
\t There was no immediate word from the three AU envoys, former Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, former Mozambique President Joaquim Chissano and former South African President Kgalema Motlanthe. AU spokeswoman Ebba Kalondo did not say whether they can meet with TPLF leaders, something Abiy's office has rejected.
\"``Not possible,'' senior Ethiopian official Redwan Hussein said in a message to the AP. ``\"Above all, TPLF leadership is still at large.'' He called reports that the TPLF had appointed an envoy to discuss an immediate cease-fire with the international community ``masquerading.''
\t Fighting reportedly remained well outside the Tigray capital of Mekele, a densely populated city of a half-million people who have been warned by the Ethiopian government that they will be shown ``no mercy'' if they don't distance themselves from the region's leaders.
\t Tigray has been almost entirely cut off from the outside world since Nov. 4, when Abiy announced a military offensive in response to a TPLF attack on a federal army base.
That makes it difficult to verify claims about the fighting, but humanitarians have said at least hundreds of people have been killed.
\t The fighting threatens to destabilize Ethiopia, which has been described as the linchpin of the strategic Horn of Africa.
\t With transport links cut, food and other supplies are running out in Tigray, home to 6 million people, and the United Nations has asked for immediate and unimpeded access for aid.

FC PLATINUM coach Norman Mapeza has pleaded for time and patience as he tries to establish combinations from a squad that he recently inherited from Heindrikus Pieter de Jongh ahead of their preliminary round clash of the Caf Champions League against Mozambican side Costa dol Sol this afternoon. BY TERRY MADYAUTA The highly-rated gaffer returned to the Zvishavane last week following the sacking of De Jongh. His first task is the match against Costa do Sol in Maputo this afternoon. He was first to admit that he needed time to oil the new-look squad which he inherited from De Jongh. “I have been here for three days and people should understand. Football has challenges and pressure. “It is a challenge because as coaches, we differ in the way we want football to be played. So I don’t want to differentiate between the new and old guys,” Mapeza said. “Those guys who were here during my five years know how I train and how I operate and with those new faces, they will be talking, but I have not had enough time to really understand the new boys. “From the look of things. It seems the team was completely changed ,some of the players who were playing before were not in the coaches plans although they were part of the team. “In those few days I have been here, I have tried to out guys who have been here and those that came after I left.” It will interesting to see how he will set up his side, but in this one, the spotlight falls on Silas Songani, who is expected to lead their frontline. The former Denmark-based player announced his arrival at the Zvishavane club with a bang and will hope to continue from where he left as FC Platinum resume their mission to conquer Africa.
