General elections are scheduled to be held in Ethiopia on June 1, 2026. This market will resolve to the next individual who officially assumes the office of Prime Minister of Ethiopia following the 2026 General elections. To count for resolution, the individual must be officially appointed and sworn in as Prime Minister of Ethiopia. Any interim or caretaker Prime Minister will not count toward the resolution of this market. If no such Prime Minister takes office by December 31, 2028, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “Other”. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Government of Ethiopia; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Trader consensus heavily favors incumbent Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's continuation, reflecting Prosperity Party dominance ahead of the June 1, 2026 general election for the House of Peoples' Representatives, where the PM is selected. Recent reports indicate the ruling party faces no opposition in nearly half of constituencies, securing parliamentary control in advance despite lingering security concerns in regions like Amhara and Oromia. Abiy's recent announcements of record $10 billion export revenues and manufacturing revival bolster economic momentum. While low-probability challengers like Berhanu Nega trail, scenarios such as opposition surges, no-confidence votes, or election disruptions could shift odds, though historical incumbency and party strength make upsets unlikely.
