The Ethiopians touched down at the Margaret Ekpo International Airport on Thursday afternoon on board a chartered flight with some of their fans, who are expected to cheer them to victory against the Eagles before proceeding to their camp at the Channel View hotels. Ethiopia needs an outright 2-0 victory in Nigeria to seal a place in the Brazil 2014 World Cup after losing at home 2-1 in the first leg match played on October 13 in Addis Ababa, thanks to two superb strikes from Fenerbahce forward Emmanuel Emenike. Fans in Calabar will have to dig deep into their pockets if they hope to watch Nigeria's Super Eagles take on the Walya Antelopes of Ethiopia at the U. J. Esuene Stadium. The tickets for the game which were made available for purch

BeanFruit’s Ethiopia Sidama Michicha “Ardi’ Natural I was first introduced to  BeanFruit Coffee Company  out of Flowood, MS by a friend of mine who is a barista at one of my favorite coffee shops here in Raleigh. This friend is originally from Mississippi and brought back a bag of their coffee after a recent trip home and was kind enough to share some with me one day while I was hanging at the shop. After my first taste I was very eager to get a bag of of mine own to experiment with and review for my blog. Today’s review is of BeanFruit’s  Ethiopia Sidama Michicha “Ardi’ Natural , a coffee that I have really come to admire.

by Sinke Wesho (OPride) – At least three Ethiopian citizens had been killed in Saudi Arabia and scores wounded following a visa-related crackdown that began last week. On November 8, when police started the field security sweep, in a matter of hours, police rounded up hundreds of migrants who did not have “legitimate” residency papers. The following day, at least two people, including a Saudi national, were killed in clashes between police, foreign workers, and vigilante Saudi citizens. Reports in the local media put the number of those arrested in thousands. Ethiopia had called on Saudi authorities to investigate the death of its citizens. And it had reportedly sent a delegation to facilitate the repatriation of more than 17,000 Ethiopians now facing deportation. The mistreatment of foreign workers in Gulf States, including Saudi Arabia, is not new. Alem Dechasa’s  assault  in 2012 in front of the Ethiopian consulate in Beirut infuriated many.

The 1987 African Footballer of the Year believes the Walia Antelopes of Ethiopia pose no threat to Super Eagles’ World Cup dream Algeria football legend   Rabah Madjer holds a strong view that the Super Eagles have already qualified for the Brazil 2014 Fifa World Cup. The 54 year old who made 87 appearances for the Desert Foxes and played a key role in FC Porto’s European Cup triumph in 1987 is of the opinion that it will be a wild goose chase for the East Africans to upset the reigning African champions in Calabar. “In view of its success in Ethiopia, the second leg will be a mere formality for Nigeria, also one of the greatest football nations on the continent,” he told  cafonline. “This is a team that has always been a danger to opponents. Ethiopia has made tremendous progress in recent years, but in my opinion it is not enough. “Nigerian players are superior and Stephen Keshi has done a great job to bring his team to the top." When asked to pick his choice of f
