United Nations General Assembly Resolution 390 A(V), adopted on December 2, 1950, imposed a federation between Eritrea and Ethiopia despite Eritrean petitions for independence, driven by U.S. Cold War interests including the Kagnew Station base and Ethiopian diplomatic pressure. The resolution granted Ethiopia control over Eritrean defense, finance, and foreign affairs, leading to the federation's erosion, Eritrea's annexation in 1962, and a 30-year independence war from 1961 to 1991 that resulted in tens of thousands of deaths.

Ssentongo, known for his pointed social commentary, started the Anti Bride Price Movement this week, inviting others to join by saying 'WE GO.' Supporters share stories of sky-high demands—like 25 cows or $13,500 in cash—that leave couples unable to wed and women feeling commodified. Defenders view bride price as a symbol of gratitude and the groom's commitment, rooted in traditions like those of the Banyankole. The push echoes Uganda's 2015 Supreme Court ruling that bride price does not justify ownership or violence, spotlighting tensions between custom and modern equality.
