The analogy of Nana Edward Robinson about crackkkers and their closest siblings.

Captain Ibrahim Traore, Burkina Faso's young and charismatic leader, steps up to the mic and drops a bombshell. He's pointing fingers at Ivory Coast and Benin, accusing them of some pretty serious shenanigans. And this is not pretty at all. Because after watching this video in full, you will ask yourself a very critical question. Is the West actually the problem of Africa or are Africans their own problem. But what's the deal? Let's break it down. Shall we? In a fiery speech to young supporters in Ouagadougou, Traore alleged that Ivory Coast and Benin are blocking goods destined for Burkina Faso at their ports. Now, that's a big deal for a landlocked country like Burkina Faso. Imagine if your neighbors decided to play keep-away with your Amazon packages. Not cool, right? But here's where it gets juicy. Traore didn't just stop at accusing them of being bad neighbors. Oh no, he went further suggesting that this blockade is part of a grand plan to "asphyxiate" Burkina Faso economically. Talk about high stakes! You see no country in the world plays with their economic interest or as many will say their national interest. That has been the cause of many wars in the past and present. You could ask the Americans and others. According to President Traore, the reason for Benin and Ivory Coast’s actions is because Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger quit the Economic Community of West African States and formed the Sahel Confederation. So, this is like you can’t eat your cake and have it.

September 11 was Ethiopia’s New Year [this video has no sound]
Ethiopia rings in its New Year, Enkutatash, on 11 September, and not on 1 January, as the rest of the world does. The country’s unique calendar considers September, called Meskerem in the local language of Ethiopia, to be the first month of the year. The Ethiopian New Year Enkutatash means the ‘gift of jewels’. Legend has it that King Solomon of Jerusalem gave the Queen of Sheba jewels during her famous visit to Jerusalem some 3,000 years ago. Her return to Ethiopia after receiving the gift coincided with the New Year celebration in September, and hence the name Enkutatash came to be.

The number of daylight hours and nighttime hours happen to be exactly equal in every part of the globe once every September, which is one of the reasons Ethiopians celebrate New Year during this month. During this time of the year, the Sun and the Moon that are used to count time each have 12 hours before setting. The second reason is derived from the Bible, which says that the creation of the Heavens and the Earth took place in September.

Ethiopians believe that the month of September has different signs that explain why it should be celebrated as the beginning of a New Year. Blooming flowers, sunny days and a generally pleasant weather reign during this month. It is a time when people leave the rainy, foggy and thunderous months in Ethiopia’s winter period behind and move on to better days. The whole family comes together to light a bonfire in their backyard and dance around it in circles on the eve of the New Year. For the New Year celebration, young boys have a different role. Weaving their creativity into beautiful paintings that herald the coming of a bright new day, the boys go from one house to another handing out their works of art on the morning of the holiday to family members, neighbors and friends. Ethiopian girls approach you beating their drums, clapping and singing the traditional song, Abebayehosh. One of the girls leads the song and the rest respond to the lyric, chanting “lemlem”. They carry bright-yellow flowers called adey abeba, which grow in Ethiopia only from September to November. As a token of appreciation, people respond to the girls’ pleasant songs with a piece of bread prepared for the holidays, or with money – the latter taking precedence these days. young boys have a different role.

While the West prepares for fall, dormant trees, and cold weather, North East Africa, is in bloom. Happy New Year!
