Ethiopia TPLF Party says 'we are not going to sit idling'

TPLF Party's Spokesperson Getachew Reda says fighting is still ongoing in Tigray and shares with us his message for PM Abiy Ahmed.

Ethiopia TPLF Party's spokesperson Getachew Reda tells Focus on Africa that his party has "no problem with negotiating the cessation of hostilities" with PM Abiy Ahmed-led central government forces fighting in the Tigray region.

The African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights' ruling obliges AU members to repeal or amend so-called "vagrancy laws", some of which were put in place during British colonisation. We speak with the president of the Pan-African Lawyers Union, Don Deya, who has been fighting for other countries to do the same.

The harrowing accounts of Nigerian families devasted by Boko Haram led killings, which over the last decade have claimed tens of thousands of lives.
