Aftermath

On 9 October 2021, the National Election Board of Ethiopia (NEBE) released the results of the referendum. In a turnout of nearly 94%, voters decisively approved the proposed new regional state.[1]

The result meant that South West Ethiopia Peoples' Region became the country's 11th regional state, after it was approved by the House of Federation. It has its own regional council and constitution, enjoying a degree of autonomy enshrined in Ethiopia's constitution.[3]

After being approved on 30 October by the House of Federation,[4] the new South West Ethiopia Peoples' Region was established on 23 November 2021, and Negash Wagesho appointed to lead it.[5][6]
