@crystalsimeoni “Subtle” messaging?!

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@crystalsimeoni And also wondering which diplomats get invited..?

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@CohenOnAfrica Please. No serious participant or spectator expected anything else from Kenya or these elections…

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@chao_mbogho @crystalsimeoni … And Ethiopians!

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@crystalsimeoni @incognegrita I think possibly even worse in Addis…?Was there for April and think cost of most essential items at *least* 50% more than when I was there year before…

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@crystalsimeoni I don’t know how/if it works in Kenya but for “international” currencies, I’d vote Revolut!

@SamRosmarin Not only names! My dad was born in Asosa but when he first applied for a passport, it was incorrectly put down as Asela…. 40-something years later despite many attempts to correct, that is where all official docs have as his place of birth

@samirasawlani @MezgebutTesema All of his work is amazing! This one was in the Sheraton Addis for several years (not sure if still there)

@Habesh_ @Habesh_ have you seen any ways for diaspora to contribute/donate?

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@Nanjala1 Is she also the first Zanzibari..?

@CoronaEnglish Thanks for all your efforts with this page! :) wondered- have you seen/heard anything in the govt updates on when Switzerland will re-open more widely and allow entry for citizens of non-EU countries (UK, US etc)?

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@crystalsimeoni The more you do it, the easier it gets ;)
(...or so I hear...!?)

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

@terrefebiruk Absolutely! Including what “experts” they use. Have been particularly disappointed by outlets I had more trust in/thought were more reliable

[Hannah Melkamu @HM_Adisu]

All of the shoddy/incomplete analysis of #Ethiopia by int media & “experts” makes me think about all the other conflicts/countries I rely on them for info on - and how little I know

@terrefebiruk @RMF_Oxford Lake “Victoria”, “Victoria” Falls....

@robynkriel1 @Jawar_Mohammed Is it just my bad hearing or are they chanting in English? Seems a bit strange...
