Zelalem Takele, is one of newer members of the Spearfish Global Team. Now based in Addis Ababa he has been an invaluable asset to our clients during these unsettling times in the region.
I am a Regional Security Advisor for Spearfish in Ethiopia. I am based in Addis Ababa. As part of this sector for more than 17 years I understand my country’s (Ethiopia) security context very well. Currently the country is in state of political reform; because of this Ethiopia is facing different security problems in different parts of the country. As a result of this it became difficult to predict the security situation of the country exactly.
Of course, no one could have expected a global pandemic such as Covid-19. No one could have predicted the impact it would have globally, and the way in which it would affect each one of us in some way. However, during these difficult times, we have worked hard to keep our clients safe and aware of the risks they might face due to Covid-19.
As part of my job have involved sharing regular updates on country and state regulations being imposed as a result of COVID and informing our clients of the impact these may have on their operations. As most South Asian countries have eased lockdown restrictions, I am now supporting our clients towards making a safe return to work by implementing necessary precautions and measures to mitigate the health threat.
