Ethiopia conflict: PM Abiy Ahmed vowed to lead from the front war
The year-long conflict with rebels from the Tigray region has led to a humanitarian crisis.
Ethiopia's prime minister has said he will go himself to the front line to face rebels who are reported to be inching closer to the capital as civil war rages on. Nigeria's Minister of Information Lai Mohammed has dismissed as fake the leaked report of an inquiry which found that the armed forces had carried out a massacre at a protest against police brutality in the main city of Lagos last year.
