The Eastern African Power Pool(EAPP) is the centerpiece of Ethiopia’s bid to become Africa’s biggest power exporter. A cheap, renewable electricity will be provided upto 9 African countries.
The 🇪🇹Ethiopia-Kenya🇰🇪 Electricity Highway Project, also known as the Eastern Electricity Highway Project, a construction of 1,045km-long transmission interconnection line(with a power transportation capacity of 2000MW) is being completed and the facility is expected to go live in February,2022
And the North-South power transmission Corridor will be a 8,000 kilometre line stretching from Egypt🇪🇬 through Sudan🇸🇩, South Sudan🇸🇸, Ethiopia🇪🇹, Kenya🇰🇪, Malawi🇲🇼, Mozambique🇲🇿, Zambia🇿🇲 and Zimbabwe🇿🇼 to South Africa🇿🇦 to transport energy generated by the Great Renaissance Dam.
The corridor will be connecting the East African and Southern African Power Pools.
The GERD will allow Ethiopia to become a power hub for the region, but the high political, economical and environmental impact has made fundraising difficult.
Today, Ethiopia exports electricity to Sudan/100MW/ and Djibouti/400/, and is building a series of transmission lines that will allow it to connect with the rest of the countries of the East African pool.
Ethiopia is hoping that greater electricity production will bring with it prosperity. Meanwhile, other East African countries have an eye on by the dam’s lasting political, economic and environmental impact in the region.

*AN OPEN LETTER TO THE USA 🇺🇸 ON THE DECISION TO IMPOSE TRAVEL BAN TO GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, ALLEGING THAT THEY INVOLVED IN UNDERMINING DEMOCRACY IN UGANDA 🇺🇬. FROM A UGANDAN 🇺🇬 PAN AFRIKANIST:*

{By Eng. Tom Isingoma Mwesiga, WhatsApp:+256-703 072203, Email:[email protected]}.

~You no longer scare us with those scarecrow tactics aimed at implementing imperialism tendencies in Uganda 🇺🇬 and Afrika.

~We are not intimidated by your baseless accusations just because you feel entitled that you are super power and therefore you have a say to any nation. You believe that you are always right even if you are destroying other country's economy and development.

~You should come and put your flag at the Parliament of Uganda and State House Entebbe, so that we know this is no longer an independent country, therefore we shall go with whatever you say. Go on an make Uganda your 51st United State.

~Some of you facilitated Bobi Wine and his group of traitors to cause violence and destroy Uganda. They were happy and rejoicing how Museveni regime will be gone by 14th January 2021. You promoted them on all international media and forums. You brainwashed them to think they are on the right cause.

~They started threatening how Uganda will be made into Somalia 🇸🇴 or Libya 🇱🇾 if Museveni doesn't leave power. They went ahead to even cause riots which let to death of people in November 2020.

~You went ahead to intimidate officials who keep peace in Uganda that they should not touch those traitors and criminals. You thought Uganda has unprofessional forces who will fear the so called super power. You hoped Uganda will tremble and you will loot it as you have done to other Afrikan countries.

~Whereas Uganda is not so powerful like China 🇨🇳, Iran 🇮🇷 or Russia 🇷🇺 that you fear to directly confront, we are not so small to fear baseless allegations and act as you want. We are not all traitors who will bow down to worship your evils.

~We are patriots and Pan Afrikanists who have loyal leaders to the Sovereignty of Uganda 🇺🇬. We have fed on the breasts of Patriotic mothers and been raised by Patriotic fathers. We don't shy away from defending our own home.

~If you want to put travel bans, go on. We are over 58% of the people who voted for NRM government. Put restrictions to all of us because our leaders are working to favor majority who don't want puppets you are imposing on us.

~You have not answered to questions of all people killed by the USA 🇺🇸 in other countries like Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia, Iraq, syria or Iran. I don't remember anyone putting travel ban or embargoes. However, you point your dirty blood fingers to Uganda for pushing away your sellout puppets.

~For example, Ugandan forces have never despised democracy that's why we have not had a coup d'etat since 1986. Our forces have protected and promoted it.

~According to you, the only problem with our forces and other officials, they are not traitors to do as you want. Remember they are not alone, even us the Ugandan people we don't want your imperialism tendencies.

~I assure you that even if you put travel bans to over a million people, we shall never be traitors until you understand that superiority complex is no longer causing inferiority Complex in Uganda 🇺🇬 and or Afrika.

~Afrika is awake this time. You will use other skills but they will not succeed. More is coming to you because every day we are being blessed by new breeds of Afrikan heroes that are born.

~You can even put a desk to pick forms for whoever is interested in travel ban to USA 🇺🇸. I will be number one. I will fill it there and then.

Former Burkina Faso tyrant Blaise Compaore charged in Predecessor's Thomas Sankara's murder.

(By Daniel Mwambonu)

A Burkina Faso🇧🇫 court has charged former President Blaise Compaore in absentia on Tuesday for murder of then Pan African and visionary President Thomas Sankara in 1987.
Sankara's assassination is one of the most infamous killings in post independent African History.
Thomas Sankara,a charismatic marxist revolutionary often called "Africa's Che Guevara" was assassinated during a coup d'état led by his former friend during which he was killed.
Then Compaore replaced him as Burkina Faso’s President then Immediately reversed the nationalizations, overturned nearly all of Sankara's policies, rejoined the International Monetary Fund and World Bank to bring in "desperately needed" funds to restore his so called "shattered" economy and ultimately spurned most of Sankara's legacy.
Compaoré's dictatorship remained in power for 27 years until it was overthrown by popular protests in 2014.
Thomas Sankara Continues to inspire 21st century Pan Africanists and is among the most Celebrated African Leaders.
Here are some of his Quotes:

1.“While revolutionaries as individuals can be murdered, you cannot kill ideas”.

2. “Debt is a cleverly managed reconquest of Africa. It is a reconquest that turns each one of us into a financial slave.” Speaking at an OAU summit, 1987.

3. “You cannot carry out fundamental change without a certain amount of madness. In this case, it comes from nonconformity, the courage to turn your back on the old formulas, the courage to invent the future”. From an interview with Swiss Journalist Jean-Philippe Rapp, 1985.

4. “I want people to remember me as someone whose life has been helpful to humanity”.

5. “Our country produces enough to feed us all. Alas, for lack of organization, we are forced to beg for food aid. It’s this aid that instills in our spirits the attitude of beggars”. From Thomas Sankara Speaks: the Burkina Faso Revolution: 1983.
Thomas Sankara Never Dies
Long Live the Pan African Spirit!

What the down stream states, particularly Sudanese gov't and Sudanese Citizens should greatly value is the rare opportunity to have information sharing framework and to stand with Ethiopia as to reach mutual understanding on GERD project water filling, before it's too late.

Frankly, the current open arms of Ethiopia to selflessly consider and embrace the concern and Interests of its sisterly countries may not be there in few decades.
Because unlike the contemporary Ethiopians who are considerate and generous, the up in coming generation of ETHIOPIANS will be calculative and thus less generous.
Since they will be faced with all sorts of resource scarcity there maybe less compassion to share with neighbor countries what ever blessings they OWN. Hydro power project will be just the first step in the Marathon awaiting us ahead.

Least, colonial contacts are irrelevant to us today and will mean an insult to the future GREATER ETHIOPIANS.

Take the rare opportunity you are being offered and March Forward with the VICTORS!
