Ethiopian PM Meles Zenawi dies after illness

Ethiopian PM Meles Zenawi dies after illness

Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi has died aged 57 after months of illness, the government says.

A spokesman said Mr Meles had died in a hospital abroad - but did not specify where or give details of his ailment.

Speculation about his health mounted when he missed an African Union summit in Addis Ababa last month.

Mr Meles took power as the leader of rebels that ousted communist leader Mengistu Haile Mariam in 1991 and led the country's economic transformation.
