One thought on “Addis Ababa abuzz over the news of Al Amoudi’s death/disappearance

  1. Well it’s obvious he was scared. He made sure the country was stable then he all of a sudden appeared. Funny he made an excuse of the fasting season. We should at least hear from him despite of his inconveniences.
