Prof. Asmerom Legesse: Ageb Ayfalkmun!

A friend of mine forwarded me the following link. Prof. Asmerom Legesse was on ERi-TV's open Mic and I can't believe what the good professor was talking about. The discussion was in relation to a conference held in Asmara about "Democracy in Africa" sponsored by Libya to sell Gadaf's Green Book. (for those of you who are not familiar with green book, it is Gadafi's version of democracy or Gadafi's manual of how to rule for life). Prof. Asmerom have presented a paper on this conference. That was the first mistake he made: by presenting a paper in the conference, he has effectively endorsed the the tone of the conference. The second mistake was what he said on the Interview. For that, I don't even want to comment. I will let you hear for your self. Click here to watch the interview.
