Ethiopia votes in elections expected to give Abiy's party a landslide win

Ethiopians voted on Monday in parliamentary and regional elections expected to hand Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s ruling Prosperity Party a landslide win. There was no election in the Tigray region due to “unfavourable conditions”, and voting in the Oromo and Amhara regions were interrupted due to security problems, according to election officials.
