Will Abiy Ahmed be the next Prime Minister of Ethiopia? Prediction Market OddsAbiy Ahmed is widely expected to remain Ethiopia’s prime minister after the country’s general elections scheduled for June 1, 2026, setting the stage for a continuation of his leadership through the next parliamentary term. If confirmed by lawmakers and formally sworn in, he would again become the country’s top executive following the vote, which comes at a pivotal moment for the Horn of Africa nation.
The election is expected to test the strength of Abiy’s political base as Ethiopia navigates security challenges, economic pressures and ongoing efforts to stabilize regions affected by conflict. While the final outcome will depend on the composition of the next parliament and the formal appointment process, the current political landscape points strongly toward Abiy remaining in office after the election.
