On 13 June 2019 Fairplanet published a profile of Ethiopian activist Abel Wabela, describing him as a strong-willed patriot whose fight for respect of the rule of law had made him pay a heavy personal price among peers who followed his work.
The feature framed Wabela’s story inside Ethiopia’s wider civic struggle over rights and accountability after years of contested politics, and it presented his case as one example of the cost of public dissent.
Kept as activism and rights archive, the Fairplanet profile dates how an international outlet recorded Abel Wabela’s rule-of-law campaign in June 2019.
