We found the scans/digital texts for the five works of our namesake pictured below in his estate. We checked them and, together with the correponding prefaces, turned them into PDFs. All have been posted on his former website https://Jemalnebez.org which we maintain and further develop.  

You can either go to the  Overview of his works and be guided by the year of publication and the photo. Or, go directly to Digital Editions  and check the two PDF columns and, again, look for the year of publication and the corresponding photo.
