AI SUMMARY
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed stated that recent cabinet reshuffles followed a year of rigorous intelligence-backed surveillance and evaluations regarding corruption and performance.
- All ministers and state ministers were placed under strict secret surveillance regarding corruption for at least the past year.
- Intelligence monitoring tracked officials domestically and abroad, including their interactions with family members and wealthy individuals.
- Ministers were evaluated not only on personal corruption, but also on their failure to control corruption or protect corrupt individuals in their sectors.
- Officials were given the opportunity to defend themselves against specific accusations such as absenteeism, inappropriate relationships, or lack of internal monitoring.
- Individuals with any suspicious tendencies, whether personally or within their immediate circle, were excluded from the cabinet.
- Remaining officials underwent an intense month-and-a-half-long training program with frequent assessments and minimal sleep.
- Ministers face a demanding period where sleeping on the job is prohibited and poor performance leads to removal.
