IGAD’s Executive Secretary,
H.E. Dr. Workneh Gebeyehu, has officially handed over five new vehicles to H.E.
Radwan Abdillahi Bahdon, Minister of Communication in Djibouti. The vehicles
are part of an investment by the African Development Bank Group under the Horn
of Africa Digital Market Integration Project (HDMI).
The new vehicles are
expected to support the creation of a digital postal marketplace, improve
service delivery, and expand e-commerce access to remote areas. The initiative
is also aimed at reinforcing Djibouti’s position as a regional logistics and
digital trade hub.
The handover reflects
ongoing efforts by regional and international partners to strengthen
connectivity, enhance digital infrastructure, and promote inclusive economic
growth across the Horn of Africa.
