Ethiopian Jazz Drummer Teferi Assefa passes away at 53

The Ethiopian music community is mourning the loss of Teferi Assefa, a renowned drummer and percussionist, who passed away this past week due to medical complications in the United States. He was 53 years old.

Teferi Assefa was celebrated for his exceptional talent and contributions to the Ethiopian jazz scene. Known for his unique beats and innovative percussion style, he played a pivotal role in shaping the sound of many local bands, including the Urban Vibes band, which recently performed at the Acacia Jazz Festival. His drumming was characterized by a deep connection to the rhythms of Ethiopian music, blending traditional elements with contemporary jazz influences.

Born and raised in Ethiopia, Teferi's passion for music began at a young age. He dedicated his life to exploring various musical traditions and was committed to teaching others the art of drumming. His effervescent personality and friendly demeanor made him a beloved figure among peers and fans alike. Throughout his career, Teferi was not only a performer but also a mentor to many aspiring musicians. He believed in sharing knowledge and fostering talent within the community. "His entire life was centered on music," said one of his colleagues. "He was busy performing regularly, researching, and teaching."
Teferi's influence extended beyond performance; he was actively involved in community initiatives aimed at promoting music education and cultural exchange. His work helped elevate the profile of Ethiopian jazz both locally and internationally.

His drumming style was described as powerful yet nuanced, with a unique ability to make the drums "speak" through passionate rhythms. "It was great to watch him play—the beat of his bass drum held everything together," noted a fellow musician. "He could hit a beat or drop an explosion on the tom-tom that resonated deeply with audiences."

As news of Teferi's passing spread, tributes poured in from fans, fellow musicians, and cultural organizations across Ethiopia. Many took to social media to express their condolences and share memories of his performances. His contributions to Ethiopian music will be remembered for years to come.

Teferi Assefa leaves behind a legacy of creativity, passion, and dedication to the art of drumming. His work has inspired countless musicians and enriched the cultural fabric of Ethiopia. As the music community reflects on his life, they honor not only his talent but also his commitment to nurturing the next generation of artists.

About hiring and firing

Every now and then I look at vacancies that are announced on LinkedIn or other sites and open a link that I think could be interesting for myself or for others in my network. I usually get attracted by the organization that has posted the vacancy, the duty station, and the title of the position, like Project Manager, Finance manager, Controller, Water Expert, and so on. Further reading usually raises more questions than it gives clarity.

Sharing Daily Meals While Uprooting and Destroying Their Business: A Bitter Irony

Throughout history, leaders have often positioned themselves as saviors of the poor to garner public admiration and consolidate power. While addressing poverty is a noble goal, a troubling pattern emerges when individuals or regimes exploit the struggles of the impoverished to build a personality cult. This approach, rather than eradicating poverty, perpetuates it as a tool for self-aggrandizement and political dominance.

Chinese FM’s New Year Visit:

As we enter 2025, China’s diplomacy once again starts with a trip to the African continent. This fine tradition of making Africa the first destination of the year for China’s Foreign Minister’s visit overseas has been an unwavering and unparalleled feature of China’s diplomacy for the past 35 years. Building on the momentum generated for the overall China-Africa relations at the Beijing Summit of Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) last September, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s trip to Namibia, the Republic of the Congo, Chad, and Nigeria is yet another affirmation of China’s commitment to the continent and the Global South.

Confiscating Asset Incommensurate with a Person’s known Source of Income

Allowing for the nuances of submitting an asylum application with political implications, one cannot help but sympathize with the opposition politicians who recently defected in Norway. A prominent reason for their defection was the pervasive corruption within the government, which can eliminate anyone with even the slightest genuine intention of opposing it. Many have fallen victim to this corruption, and a significant number of families have been pushed to the brink as a result.

The systemic cheating of our global order

In recent years, the world has witnessed a troubling trend: the normalization of systemic cheating as a core principle of governance and economic operation. This insidious vice has seeped into the very fabric of society, particularly in powerful states, where it is often cloaked in bureaucratic processes and manipulation. What we are witnessing is not merely a failure of integrity but a deliberate institutionalization of deceit that has become a coveted asset for those entrenched in crony capitalism.

አሜሪካ ከአለም ጤና ድርጅት አባልነት ለመዉጣት መወሰኗ የአፍሪካ ህብረትን አሳዝኗል ተባለ

የአፍሪካ ህብረት ኮሚሽን ሊቀ መንበር ሙሳ ፋኪ ማሃማት ፕሬዝዳንት ዶናልድ ትራምፕ ዩናይትድ ስቴትስን ከአለም ጤና ድርጅት ለመውጣት መወሰናቸው ያሳዘነ መሆኑንና አስተዳደራቸው እንደገና እንዲያስብበት ሲል አሳስቧል።

ፕሬዝዳንት ትራምፕ ስራ በጀመሩ በመጀመሪያው ቀን ዩናይትድ ስቴትስን ከዓለም ጤና ድርጅት የመውጣት ሂደት የሚያስጀምረውን የሥራ አስፈፃሚ ትዕዛዝ መፈረማቸው ይታወቃል ።
