Shilalo
Different housing construction materials have been extended to former war-displaced citizens in Shilalo and its surroundings, which are now being rehabilitated in their respective villages. The IDPs used to live in the makeshift camp of Ad-Keshi for 7 years.
The head of infrastructure for the Gash-Barka region, Mr. Tekie Kelati, pointed out that more than 5,000 families were previously provided with farm plots. In addition to receiving farm plots, needy families received financial assistance.
The beneficiaries expressed satisfaction with the assistance extended to them.
