Ethiopia’s women’s minister, the first federal official to acknowledge rape had taken place during the Tigray war, announced her resignation Monday, without specifying a reason.
“Any situation that compromises my ethics is contrary to my convictions and values, and betraying those beliefs is a breach of trust to myself and our citizens,” Filsan Abdullahi Ahmed posted on Twitter.
“For reasons of a personal nature that weigh heavily on my conscience, I regretfully submit my letter of resignation effective immediately.”
In February, Filsan said rape had “without a doubt” taken place during the now 10-month-old war in the northern region of Tigray between government forces and rebels, and set up a task force to investigate.
Also according to sources she said the task force’s report had been sent to the attorney general and that it was up to law enforcement officials to determine the scale of the crimes and who was responsible.
