My Personal Letter to Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed of Ethiopia

Dr. Abiy Amhem, cheetah

By Prof. Al Mariam

Our daily deeds as ordinary South Africans must produce an actual South African reality that will reinforce humanity’s belief in justice, strengthen its confidence in the nobility of the human soul and sustain all our hopes for a glorious life for all – never, never and never again shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another, and suffer the indignity of being the skunk of the world.

Office of the Prime Minister
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
