Do you guys agree?

TayserMahiri:
The black color stands for the people of Kenya, red stands for the blood shed during anti-colonial struggle for independence (mau Mau), the green stands for productivity of the land and the two white stripes stands for peace. The shield and spears stand for readiness to protect the motherland and what the aforementioned colors stand for.

Thanks, I also like your national anthem classic. Heard it many times on the Rio Olympic

What is the meaning of Kenyan flag??
The colors and the symbol at the center? It is very unique

How do you guys view Jesus??

After one of my recent lectures, a Christian college student approached me and asked if black people are uncomfortable with the fact that Jesus is white. I responded, “Jesus is not white. The Jesus of history likely looked more like me, a black woman, than you, a white woman.” I wasn’t shocked by this student’s assumption that Jesus was of European descent, or the certitude with which she stated it. When I am in US Christian spaces, I encounter this assumption so often that I’ve come to believe it is the default assumption about Jesus’ appearance. Indeed, white Jesus is everywhere: a 30-foot-tall white Savior stands at the center of Biola University’s campus; white Jesus is featured on most Christmas cards; and the recent History Channel mini-series The Bible dramatically introduced a white Jesus to more than 100 million viewers. In most of the Western world, Jesus is white. While Christ the Lord transcends skin color and racial divisions, white Jesus has real consequences. In all likelihood, if you close your eyes and picture Jesus, you’ll imagine a white man.

Oh gosh! . ...well, at least you guys r safe here on a faceless Nigerian forum or is it possible for them to track you guys over here?

Oh please. . it is the easiest thing they could do. Our whole post can be recorded by Ethio telecom, then they can check our adress, knock at my door then BOOM!

I think you have 0.2/10 knowlege of what our govt is capable of doing.

.

.

genieluv:
I will try to read up about ET govt as much as i can. I hope i will find veritable facts online? Or are all the ills of your govt hidden from the public?

Me and Hati13 are being very open to you guys on our govt issues. If you call a single Ethiopian and ask him about our govt, he will run away. Cuz he knows what will happen next. Everyone is scared

genieluv:
The political atmosphere of your country to a large extent influences your dream.

Yes, that is one of the reason why am saying they are killing generation after generation

genieluv:
Buh these so called unkown artistes have some good views compared to other ET songs i see on youtube. The quality of their music videos r also amazing!

*** Besides, i know 95% of Nigerian musicians as numerous as they r in Nigeria. So?

It's cuz you watch clips of the ET diaspora and ET diasporas watch more videos than the local Ethiopians

genieluv:
Pls, can you summarize in points some of these sufferings for me?

There are many stories I don't even know. Trust me. . . .

but what hurts the most is that the govt is full of dramas and lies. They are just making a mask and faking it.

They let each tribe fight. . .I am sorry, I can't talk morethan this

genieluv:
Kk.

Economy rising on what percentage growth?

I don't know as of today but our economy was growing with in morethan 10% in the previous years

genieluv:
Hmm, data subscription is also quite expensive in Nigeria too.

Chei, me come over to ET to fight? Lol. I think you seem to be exaggerating things here.
Ednited, are the TPLF as bad as Hati13 is painting it?

Yes. Only be an Ethiopian, then live in Ethiopia. You will get the answer then

Hati13:
I hope you will be the student to depose the Gov't peaceful.
I know TPLFs personally and I know them deep down how bad they are.

I can't allow them to step on my dream. My dream is far from politics

obaaderemi:
What really is wrong with Africa?Is it the air,water or the people?

THE PEOPLE.

Hati13:
Sister genieluv, please come and save us.

Hati13, are you scared??

genieluv:
I thought as much that he was a dwarf. Although i was also contemplating if he was a child. Hence the reason i asked you guys.
I think you n Ednited should try his music, lol, i stumbled on it n really, the guy has the smoothest, softest n most melodious voice i have heard among ET artistes!

Oh really?

Hati13, was he ever watched on the Ethiopian Idol? I think I know him

genieluv:
Hmm, buh why does your country seem to have so much problems like this? Are your leaders dictators or what?

Lets just say our govt's eye is only open for economic growth and investment


entertainment, internet and stuffs like that isn't their thing

My ear is now bleeding hearing the 'Ethiopia's economy is rising'

genieluv:
N how does the inside look like?

There are just 3 monuments in front. But there are other two on the right and left. It was also made to strengthen relation between Cuba and Ethiopia

There are pictures of cuban troops who lost their lives on the Ethio-Somali war for ET.

I will post more pics tomorrow

TayserMahiri:
Nairobi

Beautiful

genieluv:
Wow, has anyone entered before in the past? It's really high.

I have entered for real
those are the pics av taken

waledeji:
Tonyebacanista or whatever is name should be ashamed of himself anytime he sees that thread on Nairaland.
If I were him I would have begged admin to pull it down since.

Shame on Tonye

I spit on his head

Really? what is the problem with the thread? Have you even read a single sentence out of it?? ?? ??

genieluv:
Kk. ....buh Ednited never complains of data much. Why?

Because she is tired of complaining

genieluv:
Seems like i know more Ethiopian musicians than you. Lol.
What about Frehiwot Girma, Selamawit Yohannes n Debe Alesemeged? I came across their musics n they were very cool! Hati13

No, I think you are knowing the very unknown artists. It's very funny cuz it happens all the tym. I have a Nigerian frnd who's addicted to ET songs but all the artists he know are not known here

Hati13:
ehet Ednited, they can either throw us in prison or butcher us in front of our family. We poor Ethiopians know nothing but suffering, so they can do whatever they want to our life and body. Don't you agree?

Let's say they come to my house and opened my room. Everything I will see will be Federal polices or Agazi military Soldiers holding gun and what do they see is one poor, innocent and suffering Ethiopian. I have no power or gun, so they can take executive decision against me like they want.

I don't agree at all. These ppl can spy on you if you participate in such big forums. Sometimes I feel like I have to speak for the ppl. But in this case, I have no power. They can beat me up you know? They might imprision me, and it's not because I am guilty. But only because am a young university student talking about politics a lot. In the biggest forum. You know how much they fear students like this, ET student have the reputation to throw the leaders.

A normal person could see a poor, innocent man when they knock at your door. But the govt sees a man that could be a challange for tomorrow

genieluv:
Do you or probably Ednited know this singer? DAWIT ALEMAYEHU?

Nooo

Muafrika2:
Trust me, a heist on a bank would be more worth going to jail for that just another politician

Thanks for your concern. No one wants to be imprisioned at early age specially

lol

Muafrika2:
Hey,
Don't go to prison

for anything

Shaytun:
I admire your strength . We Nairalanders dey Gidigba for your Back.

thanks!! whats Gidigba tho?

mtis:
Please ednite I don't want see ya picture in cell some where in ethi..use available tools to protect your self...lucky for us we curse all day with no repercussion coz Kenya is Kinda democratic

I just comment. I am emotional sometimes, but I will never throw my hands in politics. . . .ever! And if they are reading this, I would like to let them know this

mtis:
Serious ednite an hati13 you guys need to be careful..have heard stories about your country men

Once, they hacked the call of an Eritrean to Ethiopia. They were planning to throw bombs on ET. The ET govt immediately checked the adress by his phone info and imprisioned the Ethiopian. They let us hear the hacked call on the news (their conversation).
