Congratulations to all who worked hard to broker peace in Ethiopia that took place in Pretoria, South Africa yesterday. It stopped a war that has costed several hundred thousand of lives and displaced millions for the last two years. It was a truly African solution to a African problem. We hope this leds to true Pan Africanism and a lasting peace, not just in Ethiopia, but to all Africa.
