What is "jeldu"

Jeldu is one of the woredas in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Mirab Shewa Zone, Jedlu is bordered on the south by Dendi, on the southwest by Ambo, on the north by Ginde Beret, on the northeast by Meta Robi, and on the southeast by Ejerie. Towns in Jeldu include Chebi, Gojo,Osole, and Shekute.

In November 2008, woreda officials announced the completion of a 1.5 million Birr project to improve the availability of safe water in Jeldu, which included installing 13 kilometers of water pipelines, building seven water distribution centers, and constructing a water reservoir with a capacity of 75,000 liters. Funding came from the Rotary Foundation, The Hunger Project, and Ethiopian sources. Woreda officials announced the following year that health station, nine health posts, 16 spring waters, four farmers training centers and 45 kilometers of road were completed at a cost of 8 million Birr.
