  • How are they going to build a stadium where there is a stream running through the land.
  • response to blackdonkey comment , well that is up to the engineer plus if u have enough money for project any thing is possible
  • addis ababa is not exactly dubai dawit minew minew gobez
  • Come on guys. Diverting a small river/stream and filling exiting depression with sand/silt/dirt/concrete whatever, is not a rocket science. I personally believe the current stadium near Ghion is the best location so instead of building another one they should demolish that one and rebuild bigger more modern. Provided, it is the the in strategic direction and interest of the city and the people who live in it.
  • Plus, Addis has run out of open spaces and the very few that are left should be used for parks and soccer fields, so that the young kids have a place to play and the older folks have a place to relax.
