Menta Menged - Part 12 (Kana TV Drama).

It is recalled that the regions have started work to reduce rural-to-urban migration by establishing rural kebele centers.

The Ministry of Urban and Infrastructure Development has stated that the performance of this work varies among the regions.

The population growth rate seen in Ethiopian cities is said to be among the fastest.

Data from the Ministry of Urban and Infrastructure Development shows that the growth rate is currently 5.4%.

According to the Gregorian calendar, it is also projected that the population living in Ethiopian cities will triple from 2028 to 2034.

In other words, it is predicted that after ten years, thirty percent of Ethiopia's population will live in cities.

The increase in urban population is attributed to migration from rural areas to cities.

Factors such as low economic status, small farmland, and similar reasons are among those that cause people to migrate from rural to urban areas.

The Ministry of Urban and Infrastructure Development, which states that this constantly increasing migration is putting high pressure on cities, adds that it is working in two ways to reduce the problem.

Ato Bizualem Admassu, the Executive Director of Land and Cadastre at the ministry, said the first method involves preparing a plan that enables the establishment of rural kebele centers.

Ato Bizualem stated that based on the prepared plan, the construction of houses has begun in various regions, noting that particularly in Oromia and Amhara, significant work has been done.

The executive stated that the rural kebele centers where these standard houses are built will inevitably become towns in the future, and he expressed that this will also help reduce the reasons for people's migration.

It has been reported that rural-to-urban migration in Ethiopia is estimated to be around 25%.
