Ethiopia’s historic role in promoting Pan-African values of freedom, unity, and resistance stands unmatched, according to Professor David Francis, former Foreign Minister of Sierra Leone.As the cradle of humanity and the only African nation to resist colonialism, Ethiopia remains a symbol of hope and empowerment for the continent, he said in an interview to Ethiopian state media outlet ENA.From the inception of the Organization of African Unity to hosting the African Union headquarters, Ethiopia’s commitment to Pan-African ideals has been a constant force in Africa’s fight for independence and solidarity, he added.
