Tobiya Poetic Jazz
Brightening Ethiopia and Ethiopianism
Tobiya Poetic Jazz is a ground breaking event that has (uninterruptedly) been hosted for the past 10 years on the first Wednesday of every month at the Ras Hotel starting at 5:30PM with the motto of “Brightening Ethiopia and Ethiopian-ism”.
The stage portrays social, economic, political issues in a timely manner through teaching, intelligent and entertaining music, tales and several theatrical acts that are believed to be beneficial to our country.
The program has also been playing its part in addressing the questions of the public and
helping public voices reach and improve government offices for the better. This has gained
it much approval and admiration.
