They constructed their dam without our permission. They have been making their own decision us not being there. And they want to negotiate on our turn.

They fought us two times in history because of the dam. TOO MUCH PATIENCE.

Have I told you that some Syrian migrants here in Addis were found spying for Egypt?

Ethiopia had too much! We have been taking care of migrants that mistreated our nations in their country and trying to negotiate with those who don't even consider our existence.

To construct this dam, too much money has been collected. 100% money from Ethiopians. Money has been collected even from the poor as an obligation. These poor people gave the money they had that would cover their food. The money was stolen from us and the old political party played on us.

This is a sacrifice paid eversince Ethiopia was an Empire. Having no enough wealth, we welcomed Syrian migrants and some played on us too. Imagine how emotional we are now?
Egyptians are not good neighbors, they should resind their decision.
The Dam in question is not on their land.

Are you serious??

Never heard of this story. That's sad.
I think the Ethio-Egypt had better media coverage.


What happend back in there? [b]Haven't you guys assigned an insolated reasearch team which will study the pros and cons that would occur after construction of the d[/b]am?
Yes, it did not make the headlines in the Western media because we did not run to the media to tarnish the image of Burkina Faso.

Feasibility studies have been done already.
The new Dam will serve 3 purposes,
Electricity, water and Irrigation.

Cote Devior took Ghana to the ICC over our Oil, that too did not make headlines. Even Togo tried same.

Egypt is making a mountain out of a mere mould.
They should give us a break, Ethiopia does not belong to them so they cannot dictate to them.

But Egypt can’t just get more water. It is basically a desert.
That's true, they need River Nile too,
But Ethiopia wants his people to enjoy Electricity,
Electricity is a basic responsibility of every Government,

Electricity will have great impact on Ethiopia's economy.

My issue with Egypt is, they have just one demand from Ethiopia, "STOP THE DAM" and that will not work.
You don't go to a negotiation table with just one demand.

Can't Egypt think of building mini-Dams so they can store or control the flow of the river that flows through their land?
Why are they head bent on stopping the Dam from operating?

They should think of other solutions and stop this bossy attitude of theirs.

The Dam has been built and it must operate so Ethiopians can pay China back.

They speaking NONsense. I wish I could meet an Egyptian right here and talk it out
Burkina Faso did similar thing to Ghana.
Upon all the agreements we had with them, they still went ahead to build their dam, the water level in our dam went low and we suffered light outage for years.

But what did we do?
We invested more into Power plants, we built new hydro-dam and we are now investing into Solar power. This is common sense.

When Burkina Faso Dam is full, they just open the dam, it costs us lot of life's, properties and farm lands but we do not fight them.

Our authorities keep on speaking to their authorities to inform us ahead of time so we can prepare.

Very soon a multi-purpose Dam will be started at the Northern part of Ghana to solve that perinial destruction always caused by the Burkina Faso Dam.

So Egypt should give us a break

It is not light that matters, Egypt depends on the water of the Nile for agriculture, irrigation and the general water consumption of its population. If the water levels reduce than so does their agricultural yield, which means they would lose mass amounts of money and their nation would start to starve, it is for them to dictate because the dam can reduce the water levels in Egypt which would drastically hurt them. It’s like if you own an agricultural processing factory and a farm, the fertilizer and animal feed you use is gotten from cassava peelings, than one day someone comes goes to the person who gives you the cassava peelings and says they want to use it for electricity. So now you can’t feed your animals, grow your plants so you can’t process the, either. Your company will fail, will you not try and stop the person from doing it or you would just let your firm die, and your family starve.
And who cares?
That's their problem, every Country protects their interest.

Egypt cares more about their Agricultural sector,
Whereas the Ethiopian Government also cares about producing Electricity for his people,
So Egypt should think around the clock and come out with a solution and stop their bossy attitude towards Ethiopians.

When Ethiopia started building the Dam, what prevented Egypt from building mini-dams that could store more water for irrigation?

They sat aloof cos they knew their plans, and they've started executing it, but Ethiopians shouldn't mind them.

You control the side of the river that passes through your country, you can't dictate to your neighbor on how to use their side of the river in their country.

Egypt would win a war against Ethiopia, I don’t care what you think or what you say, they have a larger armed forces, More helicopters, more tanks, more jets, make air defense, more advanced technics and they are the most well equipped and number 1 military in the whole of Africa whilst Ethiopia ranks in like 8th or 9th at best.
Any War between both countries will be a loss-loss for both sides.
Non of them will win.
It could be an everlasting war which both countries will suffer dearly for it.

Egyptians should swallow a humble pie and sleep somewhere.The dam is not on their land, moreover they can't dictate to another country.

The problem is that Egypt doesn't want any of the downstream countries engage in any activity that will interfere with her supply of water from The Nile.
And that is senseless on their part.

You can't dictate to other countries in such bossy manner. Did they build the Dam on their land?

These Egyptians should calm down,
River Nile doesn't belong to them.

Burkina Faso Dam caused we Ghanaians to sleep in Darkness for some years, we didn't go about threatening them.
The part of the river in their country belongs to them so we cannot dictate to them as to how they should use their part of the river.

This is not an issue. Egyptians should shut up.

Egyptians has got it all wrong. Their government is informing their people that we are bad and evil. We don't see Egypt like that

Even one day I asked one of my cousins her favorite country and she told me it is Egypt. I don't think there is a single Egyptian out there who sees Ethiopia as their favourite.
Egyptians are taking this whole issue out of proportion.

Ghana did not drag issues with Burkina Faso when they did similar thing to us.

There should be some win win agreement between the 3 countries.

Besides, Ethiopia did not build the Dam on Egypt's land so where from this tension?

I guess the name Ghana gives you orgasm?
Can't you make your argument without mentioning Ghana?
grin cheesy grin Interesting

rvp2018:
We are pursuing rural development on the back of small holder cooperative based agriculture. Urbanization is great if you have jobs like China. You only get such jobs if you go into export led manufacturing. In SSA - only Ethiopia seem to be hacking it - if they can fix their forex issues. I believe with the new dam - they might proof the next China in Africa - cheaper power, cheap land, incredibly disciplined people - they just need to fix tribal differences.

Otherwise what is happening in South Africa - the slumilization of your cities. I belief the slums are growing faster than formal housing. This is obvious because of the anemic economic growth and unemployment.

Be afraid - you might end up like Ghana or Nigeria - with urban squalor.
