In September 1974, Emperor Haile Selassie was driven out of his palace in a small Volkswagen Beetle and never seen in public again.

Eleven months later, the Derg announced he had died after a prostate operation. His son said he was in “excellent health,” his personal doctor refused to believe the official story, and the body was never handed over for an independent autopsy.

For 17 years, no one knew where he lay, until his remains were found beneath a concrete slab on the palace grounds but the truth was never uncovered.

So what really happened? In our investigation we dive into Ethiopian criminal records to discover what really happened to the last king of Ethiopia.

Dangote called it the “People’s IPO,” promising everyday Africans a chance to own a piece of one of the continent’s biggest industrial investments.But for Ethiopians, buying in now comes with a surprising condition: a minimum net worth of 10 million birr.

So, how did an investment that reportedly cost around $4 to join in Nigeria become a privilege reserved for the wealthy in Ethiopia? And is this about protecting investors or keeping ordinary people out?
