“We are being tactically pushed out of the khat export market”: Khat farmers, traders in Hararghe, Oromia

[Deeq A.]

Addis Abeba – Kahat farmers and traders in Hararghe, Oromia complained that they are being forced to leave the export market as the government has entered the export market through its own agencies. Traders who spoke to Addis Standard said the traders who were organized under an association called Biftu Baha Oromia two years ago are being tactically pushed out from the market as the illegal controllers and the government have put their own people in the market.
