Am equally shocked when continental and sub regional organs shy off condemning this nor calling an emergency session. Who do we blame now when we as Africans remain too complacent about our wrongs

Isn’t Africa the future of the world in many ways?
Was hoping Africa is the future of this complex world. With what is happening in South Africa, the country that went through years of struggle is campaigning against fellow Africans from other countries.

@addisstandard appreciate the author’s reflection on PM’s presentation to staff as part of the university’s 75th year anniversary. Given the PM is a politician and his presentation entails truth, it was rather a wake up call.

@AbiyAhmedAli Was an excellent session and appropriate challenge to academicians
Many thanks

@YonasBiru57 So do you mean you did some form of formal review of available evidence to reach such a conclusion? Let’s argue in scientifically sound way?

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@HaileTaye3 @YonasBiru57 Although journalism has its own ethics, political furled ‘probably self proclaimed’ journalists fueled disparities and facilitates conflicts

@NoraOromia Accepting reality as it prevails at its base would facilitate respect between people and culture. That is the foundation for a truly genuine federation. Appreciation to Prof Mesay

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@HaileTaye3 @YonasBiru57 Shame when an elite corrupt facts for personal or group interest. Even those who applied ethnography recommends more study. Such etic view could at best reveal the hollowness of a person

The 22nd International Conference on Ethiopian studies kicked off @ Hawassa University. An opportunity to debate on how research could inform Ethiopia’s transformation an opportunity to bridge the gap between research and policy

If science doesn’t solve problems, what is for? Worse of all when science suffers from mis and disinformation, then it is gone and gone for good #ABBC2025
If African scientists couldn’t solve problems of their community, so what are they for?

@BMLenjiso Looks like this as well as your writing, as much as great contribution to the literary work, misses the essence of the concept and/or mixed up frames of thoughts.

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@BMLenjiso How does this resonates to your recent book?

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@BMLenjiso I would have to loved to read your reflections on his agenda vis-a-vis Africa in general and prevailing development order

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@ethiopiansone What makes this great? Check out other countries including US states, states, cantons, regions…. maintain their own plate code vehicles. Such effort to nurture what potentially is divisive won’t help much and shouldn’t be trumpeted

[Mirgissa Kaba @MirgissaK]

@BMLenjiso While I salute the forbearers who maintained the Gada system despite all adversity, the generation of now is expected to keep Gada’s original tenets and do more to make it is the choice of governance, peace and development in the 21st C.

@JoeTseGy @reda_getachew Very well stated the intentional complacence by different entities to cover up the humane attention such humans deserve.
