Sheger City (Amharic: ሸገር ከተማ, Oromo: Magaalaa Sheger) is a proposed model of urban development established on 22 October 2022 that centers around the city Addis Ababa to provide influence and economic benefit for other satellite cities. The administration contains 12 sub-cities, 36 districts and 40 rural kebeles with its seat located in Saris area in Addis Ababa.[1]
While the plan is intended to expand rapid urbanization, critics argue that such measures may fail to persist. It has been viewed that this plan can cause inequalities in both regional resources and deter overall development.[2] The project was criticized by several media and human rights groups and politicians of violating regional integrity and the constitutional rights of Oromo people, increasing mass house demolition that belonged to Amhara ethnic group and to justify Oromization.[3][4]
