Ahmed Seid was born and raised in Arado ke Lahiguh, a small village in Aysaita district in Afar region. Politics and leadershipOne of Abiy’s major reforms was to replace the 27-year-old EPRDF coalition with a single national party, the Prosperity Party (PP). One of those which abandoned the previous regional political structure was the Afar National Democratic Party (ANDP), which had been in power in Afar from the early 1990s. The regional political failures of recent years have produced a significant loss of trust in political leaders. After all, the opposition faces a lot of problems because Afar-PP is now part of a national party.
