#Ethiopia our pain is real but so is our hope! Peace is a journey of a thousand miles, and it must be taken one step at a time. Remember, it's only those who are free of resentful thoughts that find peace.

Since 1996–97, no player has made more clutch-time field goals in the postseason than LeBron James (151).
The closest? Kobe Bryant (104).
Tonight… The King added another memorable moment to his resume 👑

What King sized hypocrisy for the African Union to condemn Israel appointing an Ambassador to Somaliland. If even half the AU members were as effective at governing their own nations or as democratic as Somaliland, it would be a functioning organization!

Musicians are often more effective at telling truth to power than journalists or experts. Like him or hate him, Teddy Afro deserves credit for his willingness and courage in saying through song what he sees as failures in Ethiopian politics. Listen!

Bank of Abyssinia's service has been absolutely deplorable. Our money has been deducted for more than 24 hrs with no completed transfer to other banks, no functioning support lines, and no responsible staff to give us info or support. Pure negligence & customer disregard 😔

He cooked. Bron is the only all time great athlete whose negatives are the first thing people mention. It’ll be like “MJ, 6/6. Kobe, closest thing to Mike. LeBron, 4-6 in the Finals. Kareem, most MVPs ever. Magic, showtime. Steph, greatest shooter ever” and y’all don’t see how weird this is. Lol

Congratulations to the King LeBron James for becoming the only player in NBA history to score 50,000 regular season and playoff points! 👏🏾

Time for @getnickwright’s annual reminder:
LeBron James has been the NBA’s *most* clutch player over the last 30 years, and it’s not close.
The numbers prove LeBron is actually the guy that folks pretend Kobe was.

The EFF’s Statement on the Passing of Namibia’s Founding President Sam Nujoma
-Comrade Nujoma’s revolutionary journey saw him endure decades in exile, leading SWAPO’s armed struggle while mobilising international solidarity for Namibia’s independence. His commitment culminated in the victory of 1990, when Namibia was finally freed from apartheid South Africa’s grip. As the country’s first democratically elected president, he led until 2005, laying the foundation for a sovereign and independent Namibia.
Farewell, Sam Nujoma, a fearless warrior who led Namibia to freedom and inspired a continent. You stood tall against colonialism and apartheid. Your leadership built a nation, and your legacy will forever echo in the hearts of your people! Rest in power, beloved son of Africa ❤
As neighbours and compatriots, South Africa is united in grief with Namibians who have lost the leader of the Namibian revolution, who is inseparable from our own history of struggle and liberation.
Dr Sam Nujoma was an extraordinary freedom fighter who divided his revolutionary programme between Namibia’s own struggle against South African colonialism and the liberation of South Africa from apartheid.
In exile and on home soil, he led the Ovambo People’s Organisation, the South West Africa People’s Organisation and the People’s Liberation Army of Namibia against the seemingly unshakeable might of colonial and apartheid authorities and forces.
Sam Nujoma inspired the Namibian people to pride and resistance that belied the size of the population.
Namibia’s attainment of independence from South Africa in 1990 ignited in us the inevitability of our own liberation.
President Nujoma’s leadership of a free Namibia laid the foundation for the solidarity and partnership our two countries share today – a partnership we will continue to deepen as neighbours and friends.
We are grateful for the extended lifetime with which Dr Sam Nujoma was blessed and we are grateful for the manner in which he dedicated the many decades of his life to serving his nation.
May his soul rest in peace and may our neighbours find healing in his legacy.
