π§πͺπΉ #GERD is the largest dam in Africa and one of the ten largest in the world, representing one of the cornerstones of Ethiopiaβs national energy strategy.
The project is a complex infrastructural system that, by harnessing the waters of the Blue Nile, achieves an installed capacity of 5,150 MW, equivalent to three medium-sized nuclear power plants.

The African Union has joined the call to replace the outdated 16th-century Mercator map which distorts Africaβs true size, with the Equal Earth projection, a map that shows the continent as it really is: vast, powerful, and central to our world. #CorrectTheMap
π¬ βIt might seem to be just a map, but in reality, it is not,β says AU Deputy Chairperson H.E. @DCP_Haddadi in an article with Reuters
Led by @africanofilter and @SpeakUpAfrica1 , this campaign urges governments, schools, and international organisations to adopt maps that reflect Africaβs true scale and restore balance to how our world is viewed.

PRESS RELEASE ON THE MPOX VIRUS DISEASE OUTBREAK IN KENYA
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This claim is false and has not been verified. MOH is known to falsify information about the Mpox virus when there are calls for demonstrations.

What if the next Silicon Valley is in Addis Ababa? πͺπΉ
While the world obsesses over billion-dollar AI labs in SF, Ethiopia is quietly training 5 million youth to code.
Yesβ5 million.
In a country where the median age is 19, this isnβt just education. Itβs a movement.
I recently met a 22-year-old from Addis Ababa building an AI model on an 8GB laptop⦠during daily power cuts.
No CS degree. No VC funding. Just grit, open-source tools, and a generator.
Africa isnβt waiting for permission.
Itβs leapfrogging.
The next unicorn wonβt come from Silicon Valley.
Itβll rise from Nairobi, Lagos, or Addis Ababa.
If youβre a startup building something interesting, especially in the AI space, please DM.
I am part of Addis Ababa Angels. In addition to helping you raise money, we also help you link with relevant industry players.
Whether you are looking to validate your idea or scale a hot product, let's talk.

This is Naima Jamal from Ethiopia who is now being sold and held captive for $6.000 in Libya. This applies to those behind her too
