Thousands Stage Rare Protest in Ethiopia 
-----------------------------------------


 
Thousands of people marched in Ethiopia's capital of Addis Adaba on
Sunday in a rare show of protest. Demonstrators carried pictures of
jailed opposition leaders and chanted slogans calling for respect of the
country's constitution. It was Ethiopia's first mass-protest since 2005
when election-fueled unrest left around 200 people dead.
