NAIROBI, June 21 (Reuters): Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Prosperity Party comfortably won another parliamentary majority in this month's elections, results released by the national election board on Sunday showed.
Abiy's party was widely expected to dominate the elections against a fragmented opposition.
Abiy, who was appointed in 2018 following mass protests against the long-ruling EPRDF coalition, created the Prosperity Party the following year.
