Ethiopia's Betty action on Big Brother Africa
BETTY, Teacher, 26,Ethiopia
BIO: Betty is a translator and teacher from Addis Ababa. She describes herself as brave, confident, committed and able to make the right decisions at the right time. She likes punctual, reasonable, and confident people, but dislikes people with “big mouths”.
Her favourite food is pizza and favourite book is The Notebook. She says the best thing about Africa is the people, because they have showed the world they can do anything. Her favourite spot in Ethiopia is Kuriftu Resort in Debrezeit, and her favourite place outside her home country is Hollywood, because she loves film and music “and that’s where the stars live”.
Betty entered Big Brother because she has always wanted to be a part of it and is inspired by “every crazy thing in the show”. She says that having Africa’s eyes glued to the show will make her feel “like a princess”. If she wins the grand prize, she’ll open a travel agency in Ethiopia.
So just cause she banged someone on the first day who cares? Ehh sometimes I think most of you guys are trying to be modernized but also still stuck mentally to our irrelevant and very behind culture. And to be honest, it’s none of your fcking business to judge her. She did what she wanted and doesn’t live to society expectations. . At least, she is emancipated and doesn’t live everyday to please people.
Yes, she has no morals but who the hell are you to say all those horrible things because of her actions?
Cheers, Betty not to giving a f about what people think.
you bitch you embarrassed not only Ethiopian but African as all. African even if we are poor but praise to God we have our own culture and etics. you said you are a teacher i am wondering if you are sex teacher.
Let me get you advise check your fucked ass might be full of worm.
No excuse what so ever! She knew she is under surveillance 24/7. Are you trying to promote slurs for our children's teachers. Now her students will see this. Even in the USA this is enough to fire her and ban her from classrooms.
the view of nile dam Egypt with Ethiopia for media literacy
it is wrong to generalize and insult any race or nation. But egyptian politicians in particular should clean themselves of the arrogance and disrespect that they are showing for ethiopians and subsaharan africa in general. There are trans-boundary rivers all over the world in north America, europe and Asia. Of course in all those continents the different countries use them on equal basis and even downstream countries pay upstream countries. But this doesn't hold for egyptians cuz they think the world is governed by their rule. You should never threaten an upstream country by war Mr.Morsi. Ethiopia may not need an airplane to kill as many Egyptians as it wants cuz it has a water flowing down to Egypt. You are too foolish to understand what that means. Instead I advise u to try your best diplomatic efforts. Don't even try to destabilize ethiopia, that will trigger another negative response from the ethiopians. And above all turn back to history to study what has happened to your ancestors when they tried to confront ethiopians.
The blue Nile originates from lake Tana of Ethiopian highlands, that means it is the property of Ethiopia.But it blows my mind when the president of Egypt declares openly that they don't risk to lose one drop of water of the blue Nile. They also say that it is life and death situation for Egypt if they lose the water of the Nile which can be true, but the reality is that Ethiopia is entitled to manage the water resources within it's borders. It is ridiculous for the Egyptian people and their government not to be grateful to the graciousness of the people of Ethiopia whom they are indebted for utilizing the river Nile water for generations without any hindrance.Well,time has come for the people of Ethiopia to go alone and carry out to develop any water projects in order to improve the lives of their population regardless who loses what.Egypt can only be confined within it's borders and I don't see how they can claim the ownership of the water assets of Ethiopia, that pure empty rhetoric will never bring a win-win resolution for this dispute.So the Egyptian leaders should come back to earth and must realize the hard facts of life and accept to tone down the unproductive rhetoric and start a meaningful dialogue with Ethiopia,that is the only way a reasonable agreement can be reached. all Egyptians currently doing and contemplating to do has its base false perception and fantasy that "we Egyptians are powerful in military, have sole right to use the river for our own use, we should have veto all the time, upstream countries have no capability to do any thing on the river" the fact is that historically even they do not have some good substance to boast all they have was a bitter defeat, as long as we are contributing 85 % of nile we have non negotiable right to use it responsibly. MURSI looks so far acting based on feeling and perception not facts, which is so foolish ans childish character.we should earn more pride of being Ethiopian by making sure that we do what can to make our project happen. I wish your comment red by Mursi.

CAIRO: President Mohamed Mursi said on Monday he would keep "all
options" open to defend Egypt's water supply from being affected by a
giant new dam Ethiopia is building on the Nile but he added that Cairo did not want war.
"Egypt's water security cannot be violated at all,"
he said in a televised speech to Islamist supporters. "As president of
the state, I confirm to you that all options are open.".
He later added: "We are not calling for war, but we will
never permit our water security ... to be threatened."
Using emotive language to underline the importance of the Nile
to Egypt, he quoted a popular song about the river and said: "If it
diminishes by one drop then our blood is the alternative."
Mursi, who faces strong domestic opposition after his first
year in office, said Egypt recognised Ethiopia's desire to develop its economy, but would
defend its own interests from a hydro electric project announced by Ethiopia
two years ago but which moved forward significantly late last month.
Cairo had no objection to "development projects in the Nile Basin states", Mursi said, referring to
Ethiopia as well as Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, Democratic
Republic of Congo and Sudan, "but on conditions that those projects do
not affect or damage Egypt's legal and historical rights".
Egypt, whose fast-growing population of 84 million uses almost
all of the Nile's supply that reaches them to meet their needs, cites
colonial-era treaties guaranteeing it the lion's share of the water to defend
its position. Ethiopia, the second most populous state in Africa, says those
claims are outdated.
It says the Grand Renaissance Dam an Italian firm is building
for it on the Blue Nile near the Sudanese border will generate electricity
that it can export and will not reduce the long-term flow of the Nile, once
its huge reservoir is filled.
Egypt expressed surprise and alarm when engineers began major
work late last month to divert the Blue Nile in order to start key work on
the dam.
Sudan has given its support to Ethiopia's project,
saying it would benefit from electricity it generated. But Egypt, which has
its own major barrages on the Nile including the Aswan Dam, has raised
concerns about its safety and effect on water flow.
Mursi said Egypt had carried out studies that showed
"negative consequences" from building the Renaissance Dam.
Bellicose rhetoric between Egypt and Ethiopia, which share a
millennial history of friction over the Nile and its resources, has raised
concerns in the region about conflict. Analysts have noted that Mursi could
be tempted to use the dispute to divert domestic attention away from economic
and political troubles.
Mursi called on his political opponents to forget their
differences. He said he was ready to "go to everyone" in a new
effort to reach out to his non-Islamist opponents who have snubbed his
previous calls for national reconciliation talks.
Egypt's previous military rulers, notably in the 1970s, but
also later made occasional warnings of military action against Ethiopia if it
threatened water resources.
Last week, Ethiopia summoned the Egyptian ambassador after
politicians in Cairo were shown on television suggesting military action or
supporting Ethiopian rebels.
The possible downstream effects of the $4.7-billion dam have
been disputed and full details are unclear.
While letting water through such dams - of which Egypt, Sudan
and Ethiopia already have several - may not reduce its flow greatly, the
filling of the reservoir behind any new dam means cutting the river's flow
for a time. Evaporation from reservoirs can also permanently reduce water
flowing downstream.
