Neither of the references given in this article mention the subject. I checked the Amharic Wikipedia, and while there is an article on him there, its two references consist of a Facebook link and a deadlink. This article requires references to reliable, independent, verifiable sources that discuss him non-trivially in order for this article to be retained, and I was not able to identify any.

 * Delete. It is possible that the two works about him are master's level theses, but I can not verify it. In the absence of further information, I think we need to delete.  DGG ( talk ) 18:26, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
