Deputy Investment Chief Moves to Trade, Industry Ministry

Mar 1 , 2019



Teka Gebreyesus, the current deputy commissioner of the Ethiopian Investment Commission, has been named the new state minister for Trade & Industry, by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD).

Teka, who studied public policy and administration at Murdoch University in Australia and Indira Gandhi National Open University in India, has been serving the Commission for the last three years.

His appointment followed a high-level meeting earlier this week held at the Prime Minister's Office, appraising progress made on the administration's effort to ease bottlenecks in doing business.

Teka was one among a couple of others who have been moved around in the bureaucratic ladder. He was replaced at the Commission by Hanna Araya Selassie, a lawyer by training at the Addis Abeba University and New York University School of Law. She has been working at the Prime Minister's Office in recent months.

The premier has also appointed Wedo Ato as a commissioner of the Federal Anti-Corruption Commission, and Hallelujah Lule, a regional security expert and consultant, as acting director for the Ethiopian Foreign Relations Strategic Studies Institute.
