The Council of Ministers of Fikre Selassie Wogderess was the cabinet of the government of Ethiopia during the premiership of Fikre Selassie Wogderess from 1987 to 1989.

Pre-election
The Abiy cabinet of October 2018 was gender-balanced, with half the ministers being women, including several in senior security ministries, with Aisha Mohammed Mussa as Minister of Defense and Muferiat Kamil in the newly created Ministry of Peace, which was allocated responsibility for several security services. The number of ministers was reduced from 28 to 20. The other eight women ministers were Adanech Abebe, Dagmawit Moges, Ergoge Tesfaye, Fetlework Gebregziabher, Fitsum Assefa, Hirut Kassaw, Hirut Woldemariam and Yalem Tsegaye Asfaw.

In April 2019, Gedu Andargachew became Foreign Minister.

A January 2020 reshuffle replaced Fetlework Gebregziabher, a Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) member, by Melaku Alebel as Minister of Trade and Industry, and shifted Getahun Mekuria from Innovation and Technology to Education.

A March 2020 reshuffle included shifting Adanech Abebe from a Minister to Ethiopia's first woman Attorney-General. The reshuffle included two new women ministers, promoting Lia Tadesse from State Minister for Health to Minister for Health, and Filsan Abdullahi became the Minister of Women, Children, and Youth. Some members of parliament viewed the reshuffle as reducing the representativity of Tigrayans, while member of parliament Tesfaye Daba stated that Lia Tadesse was partially of Tigrayan origin. Lake Ayalew became Minister of Revenue.

In November 2020, Demeke Mekonnen replaced Gedu Andargachew as Foreign Minister.

Filsan Abdi resigned from her ministership in September 2021 in relation to governmental obstruction of the publishing of a full report on sexual violence in the Tigray War.

Post-2021 election
Following the 2021 Ethiopian general election, in which the Prosperity Party won an overwhelming majority of seats, a major reshuffle of the Cabinet took place in October 2021. Three opponents to the Prosperity Party were appointed as ministers. Berhanu Nega of Rainbow Ethiopia: Movement for Democracy and Social Justice became Minister of Education; Belete Molla of National Movement of Amhara (NaMA) became Minister of Innovation and Technology; and Kejella Merdassa, a former member of the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) became Minister of Culture and Sports. Control of twenty intelligence, security, financial and other institutions was given directly to the prime minister.
