I would like inform you that Yohannes Tilahun has announced his intent to resign from his position as Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of GE Ethiopia (http://www.ge.com/africa/company/ethiopia) as of May 1st 2016 to pursue other opportunities.
Yohannes joined us from Ethiopian Investment Commission (“EIC”), where he held the role of Senior Director, Strategy. He has also served as a special advisor to the CEO of the EIC as well as other Government Ministers on numerous issues including priority focus areas for greater economic development through private sector involvement.

his future endeavors.
