Andualem Aragie (Amharic: አንዱዓለም አራጌ; born 4 November 1972) is an Ethiopian politician and activist who is the Deputy Leader of Ethiopian Citizens for Social Justice (ECSJ), an opposition party formed after the merger of 7 smaller opposition parties in May 2019. He was formerly the Vice President and Press Secretary for the Ethiopian-based Unity for Democracy and Justice Party (UDJP).[1][2] Andualem was sentenced to a life sentence on terrorism charges[3] after being imprisoned on September 14, 2011 along with prominent journalist Eskinder Nega and opposition party members and reporters.[3] His arrest has been ascribed by human rights organizations as a crackdown on dissent.[4] Human Rights Watch also reported his detention as well as other members of the opposition and the potential for serious abuse during his imprisonment.[5] He is now released from prison after the government pardoned him and other prisoners of conscience.
