Addis Ababa(ANN)-Demonstrators blocked roads in towns around Addis Ababa on Tuesday on the second day of a strike called to protest against Ethiopia’s continued incarceration of opposition politicians.


The three-day strike across Oromiya province, which surrounds the capital, was held as an opposition leader remained behind bars despite a mass pardoning of dissidents aimed at reducing unrest that has simmered since 2015.
