    Ethiopia just held elections. The result is expected to be a clear victory for the ruling Prosperity Party. But millions were unable to have their say. The problem for the country is that it has never resolved longstanding questions about how best to represent the different regions and groups which make up the modern nation.

    Time to stop begging and start demanding justice

    Several hundred years after the height of transatlantic slavery, African leaders believe they may finally be on a path towards justice. At a recent African Union summit, reparations for the mass human trafficking, colonialism and apartheid were designated as a flagship priority of the Union. The move marks a significant moment in a long-running effort to coordinate Africa’s position on one of the gravest chapters in global history. Ghana has been tasked with leading the development of a unified proposal. Situated on the West African coast, Ghana - like several neighbouring countries - became a major hub in the trafficking of enslaved Africans. Hundreds of thousands of men, women and children were forcibly taken from its shores and transported across the Atlantic in appalling conditions. For decades, there was little international consensus about how to address this history. Many of the countries responsible sought to frame slavery as a closed chapter. Some African states prioritised other urgent post-independence challenges. Caribbean nations, whose populations include many descendants of enslaved Africans, developed their own approaches shaped by different political and economic realities. Now, however, the African Union is attempting to bring together African states and the wider diaspora behind a common position.
