About me?! ...well, umm, in three words: I love Eritrea. Why? ...because she's my Idol! Mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually... I am Eritrea. Eritrea is me.

Eritrea doesn't allow anyone to speak for her. She speaks for herself. Of course, strangers always try really hard to box her. Democracy. Elections. Constitution. She doesn't flinch. Others try to imprison her. Forced labor. Human rights. Freedom of religion. She doesn't budge. Some even try to erase her. Pariah state. Sanctions. Terror list. She doesn't give up! Eritrea strides on... carrying time on her shoulders...sowing her royal seeds... convinced that one day, soon, against all odds... her children will be vindicated!!!

My prayer?! That the truth comes to light. Africa will learn...........that you can survive without handouts... that you don't need to sell your people to the highest bidder... that you're better off having the west as your enemy than your rotten carrots for sticks "friend"...................... that independence is not a moment but a momentum...........
