Ethiopia's Abiy Ahmed Warns of Sovereignty Threats

At the 2024 Indonesia/Africa Parliamentary Forum, Nigeria's Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon Tajudeen Abbas, praised the initiative as a vital platform for addressing common developmental challenges, emphasizing the importance of collaboration among countries. Meanwhile, Kenya is enhancing its digital connectivity and infrastructure to solidify its role as a regional digital hub, with initiatives like a green data center and the eCitizen service aimed at improving access to government services. As Kenya's Harambee Stars prepare for an AFCON qualifier against Namibia, they are on the lookout for key players that could pose challenges during the match. In Ethiopia, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has issued a strong warning against threats to national sovereignty amid regional tensions, particularly concerning maritime disputes with Somalia and the controversial dam project on the Blue Nile. Lastly, discussions around leadership in Kenya suggest a gradual shift from authoritarian governance towards more transformational leadership styles that empower citizens, reflecting broader societal changes.
