The name Kilometere Four/Araat Kilo...

Post by 2ndtoNone »

Where did the name Kilometer Four came from (the area of Muqadisho where government ministries are located.

In Ethiopia's capital Adis Ababa the area where most government department and ministries are located is also called kilo meter four or in Amharic ARAAT KILO.

Does anyone know the significant of the four kilo meter?

You make sense. I know it's the distance from Point Zero. I assumed Point Zero for Mogadishu was Villa Somalia
