Ethiopia was never colonized.
For much of its history, it was one of the poorest countries on the continent.
Meanwhile, Vietnam was colonized by the French, devastated by decades of war, and is now on its way to serious economic prosperity.
If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor, Ethiopia should be rich and Vietnam should be broke. Neither is true.

Update on the Odious Debts Petition
Today, the matter has been adjourned to 28th April 2026. The IMF is pleading immunity. However it must be clear that immunity does not justify impunity.
We remain steadfast in the fight to free our country from the stranglehold of Odious Debts. The Bretton-Woods framework may shield IMF from judicial processes unless they waive immunity, but justice cannot be silenced by technicalities.
This struggle is about dignity, sovereignty, and the right of our people to live free from illegitimate burdens. #DeniBandia #JusticeForKenya #OdiousDebts #ReKe
