Abiy's government and the regional one run by the Tigray People's Liberation Front each consider the other illegitimate.
\t There was no immediate word from the three AU envoys, former Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, former Mozambique President Joaquim Chissano and former South African President Kgalema Motlanthe. AU spokeswoman Ebba Kalondo did not say whether they can meet with TPLF leaders, something Abiy's office has rejected.
\"``Not possible,'' senior Ethiopian official Redwan Hussein said in a message to the AP. ``\"Above all, TPLF leadership is still at large.'' He called reports that the TPLF had appointed an envoy to discuss an immediate cease-fire with the international community ``masquerading.''
\t Fighting reportedly remained well outside the Tigray capital of Mekele, a densely populated city of a half-million people who have been warned by the Ethiopian government that they will be shown ``no mercy'' if they don't distance themselves from the region's leaders.
\t Tigray has been almost entirely cut off from the outside world since Nov. 4, when Abiy announced a military offensive in response to a TPLF attack on a federal army base.
That makes it difficult to verify claims about the fighting, but humanitarians have said at least hundreds of people have been killed.
\t The fighting threatens to destabilize Ethiopia, which has been described as the linchpin of the strategic Horn of Africa.
\t With transport links cut, food and other supplies are running out in Tigray, home to 6 million people, and the United Nations has asked for immediate and unimpeded access for aid.

THE Employers Consultative Association (ECA) said the issue of making vaccination mandatory in Trinidad and Tobago must be carefully thought out before any decision is made on the matter.
In a statement on Tuesday, the ECA said the issue of mandatory vaccination with respect to covid19 has been an ongoing topic of discussion around the world, especially pertaining to the world of work.
It said as a responsible and committed social partner, it has been listening, taking into consideration the views currently being expressed by highly credible commentators on the subject locally and across the region, while conducting its own research.
\"Notwithstanding the strong arguments for mandatory vaccination, having considered the views expressed, and based on our own findings to date, the ECA’s position on the subject is that making vaccination mandatory in our jurisdiction must be well-researched and must ensure inputs from stakeholders at all levels of society.\" The ECA listed Government, business, labour and civil society among the stakeholders whose view must be taken on board \"before any policy decision is declared or legislation enacted.
\"Our research suggests that while many countries have contemplated such action, it is being approached with a great deal of caution at this time, since a valid case for legitimate exemptions also exists.\"
The ECA said, \"We need to also keep at the top of our minds, that the legal basis for mandatory vaccination would largely be dependent on the workings of the national legislative framework.\"
As a member if the Industrial Relations Advisory Committee (IRAC), the ECA said it will be participating in discussions on the issue and \"exploring the legal and human rights elements of mandatory vaccination, as it must do, understanding that both employers and employees have rights and responsibilities under our constitution, international human rights conventions and other covenants.\"
The ECA said it is aware of the pandemic’s devastating effect on business, citizens’ health, psychological and economic well-being.
\"In this regard, we fully support a national vaccination programme to realise the full reopening of the economy and restoration of jobs and livelihoods for all employee groups, live classroom learning for all students, and safety and health of all citizens.\"
The ECA suggested the introduction of campaigns designed to educate and strongly encourage individual citizens about \"the personal and societal benefits of vaccination, even at the level of the workplace.\"
It said these benefits principally include the protection and preservation of individuals' health and livelihoods, as well and those of their relatives, friends and work colleagues.
Speaking in Parliament on June 9, Labour Minister Stephen McClashie said the IRAC started work towards developing \"a paper on considerations surrounding workplace vaccination and will submit to me shortly.
\"We have a number of things to consider, including health, human rights, legal considerations and maybe even personal rig
“Don’t break a dollar to spend a dime” was Big Mama’s caveat of caution; think before you part with your hard-earned money.
Banks and credit unions make upwards of 30% of their profit these days on fees.
Financial institutions provide overdraft protection on your checking and credit card accounts at an average of $25 per occurrence.
Debit cards are convenient, but like credit cards, they tend to make us spend more than we would part with if we shelled out cold hard cash.
Passing them a card for that $60 feast at Pappadeaux ain’t nothing like peeling off three $20 bills.

[The Conversation Africa] Gender disparities in health are not a phenomenon unique to the pandemic.
