May 04, 2022 (ENA) The national dialogue in Ethiopia would enable to resolve years-long contentious national problems in the country, according to elders who spoke to ENA. He noted that the dialogue would help to resolve the disputes which have not been solved for many years. “The national dialogue helps to reach consensus among Ethiopians on contentious issues rather than squabbling over issues that have no relevance for this generation. Negewo Waqeyo, an Oromo elder, said the dialogue will help Ethiopians to uproot divisive attitudes being spread by some elements. For this, we need the ongoing national dialogue that has to be a foundation for lasting peace.”The National Dialogue Commission has so far finalized the preliminary preparation phase for the holding of the much anticipated national dialogue since its establishment over two months ago.
