Ethiopia Natural Environment

This is not really a town you go to without a good reason, I came here whilst en route to the Sudanese refugee camps 100km away near the border. The town is more Sudanese than Ethiopian and as it is out of the highlands the weather is much hotter than the rest of the country. Most of the people here are Nuer, but there are various other groups in the area too. I visited in 2000 and I believe than the security situation has become a lot more of a problem in recent years.
