Bibugn: History

In 2003 the opposition All Ethiopian Unity Party (AEUP) attempted to open a branch office in Bibugn. On 7 February, AEUP informed woreda officials of its plan and provided them a list of names of AEUP organizers, as requested. After receiving the list, woreda officials announced over a megaphone that people should neither associate with AEUP nor rent a house to AEUP members for its branch office. On 10 November of the same year, local kebele officials and militia set the home of an AEUP member on fire while he was asleep with his wife and child. While they were able to escape, they lost their house, livestock, and food.
In October 2009, zonal officials announced that construction of 47-km road connecting Digua Tsion with Mota, with a budget of over 147 million Birr had begun, with completion expected by September 2010.
The construction completed in 2005 E.C that connected Bibugne with Motta and Bahirdar towns.
The construction road creates good opportunities for travelers from Debremaekos to Motta towns in a short way.
