@martinplaut This is extremely misleading… ofc the west knows Ethiopia by the name Abyssinia (locally pronounced as Habesha) but Ethiopian kings and their chroniclers used the name Ethiopia for centuries… even in letters addressed to queen Victoria they refer themselves as Kings of Ethiopia

God forbid, but with the speed at which the West is scrapping international norms and rules, I doubt they’ll even contemplate recolonizing Africa. They’ll just erase us from existence, seize the continent, and its resources.
Maybe prophet @mkainerugaba will protect us 😁

All I wish for right now is for Algeria to lose to Nigeria 🇳🇬 , with Nigerian players scoring and celebrating by showing the Lumumba statue gesture!

10/10. That is also why many foreign journalists lack the granular knowledge needed to explain the ins and outs of Ethiopian politics.

1/10 My two cents on the “Head to Head” interview
1.Those ad snippets before the full interview definitely made @reda_getachew look bad, but watching the whole thing I think he mostly stood his ground.

[Eyasped Tesfaye @eyasped]

9/10. 5.The Ethiopian conflict is complicated and multi-layered, which makes it easy for self styled analysts to pin everything on one actor and chase peace and conflict grants.

Here is my take on Befeqadu Hailu ‘s new book “lost in transition”

[Addis Standard @addisstandard]

#Book_Review: Between Euphoria and Ruin: Reflections on Befeqadu Hailu’s Lost in Transition
https://t.co/Hhn39m3yBH

In this book review, Eyasped Tesfaye offers a reflection on Befeqadu Hailu's Lost in Transition, a work notable as one of the few attempting to provide a comprehensive, chronological account of the past decade's volatile #Ethiopian politics, a period that he characterizes compellingly: "There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen."

The reviewer acknowledges the considerable difficulty of crafting a balanced retrospective in a deeply polarized environment but commends Befeqadu’s overall success, noting that his disagreements with the author’s interpretations amount to “genuine differences of perspective rather than partisan distortion.” According to Eyasped, the book offers rich historical context on state formation, examines ethno-federalism and the role of historical memory, and includes a dedicated section on the corrosive impact of disinformation on public discourse during political transitions, arguing that such periods are “uniquely vulnerable” to falsehoods.

Above all, the reviewer sees the book as indispensable—not for offering easy answers, but for compelling readers to “force a pause” and, in doing so, “reassess their positions” on the defining crises of the last ten years. As Eyasped puts it, Lost in Transition does more than analyze—it “invites the reader to think, to reassess, and to imagine the institutional and civic work required to prevent future failures of transition.”

@Jawar_Mohammed A digital ጥንቆላ ቤት might just be the upgrade we need 😊 less head-bumping, more foresight. One of the first of its kind 😁
