A visionary Pan-African diplomat, Ketema Yifru was a key force behind the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in 1963, shaping the foundation of today’s African Union (AU). As Ethiopia’s Foreign Minister (1961–1972), he championed African solidarity, diplomacy, and self-reliance, advocating for the end of colonial rule and fostering unity among nations. His efforts helped secure Africa’s independence and collective strength.
How can we honor his legacy? By strengthening African unity, championing diplomacy, and building a self-sufficient future.
