Sir, please speak against US NSC siding with Egypt to deny 65 million Ethiopians possible acess to electricity when their country contributes 86% to Nile, while Egypt has 100% of its people electricity even though it contributes 0% to Nile! We hope the house speaks against it

When Egypt, that contributes 0% to Nile, built the great Aswan dam& other projects, never consulted Ethiopia even for a single minute even though Ethiopia contributes 86% to Nile. Ethiopia spent 9 years consulting with Egypt, yet, for too Greedy Egypt it’s never ever enough

65 million Ethiopians,whose country contributes 86% to Nile,never had acess to electricty or hot water in their life time forced by long years of sabotage by Egypt,who contributes 0% to Nile.While 100% of Egyptians have acess to electricity.I guess this is called “Equitable use”

Fact is, the dam is being filled slowly&no harm will be done to Egypt! Plus, after the dam is filled,Egypt’s current water share will increase by a whopping 5%!But facts be dammed. Colonialism is the quest, we know.The colonialist never accepts fairness or fair terms, only GREED

While knowing very well that the dam will not affect water share of Egypt, in fact, it being well known that the dam will increase water share of Greedy Egypt by at least 5%, Greedy Egypt knowingly& purposely continued to obstruct negotiations & traumatize Ethiopia! Greedy Egypt
