In the recent African Union summit, the leaders unveiled the statue of Emperor Haile Selassie as a recognition of the emperor’s efforts for African unity. Emperor Haile Selassie was the last monarch of Ethiopia, and for years his family remained in the shadows after the Derg regime took over Ethiopia. The statue tribute has an immense meaning for the remaining families of the emperor.
Mereja TV interviewed Emperor Haile Selassie’s grandson Prince Be’edemariam Mekonnen about the statue. Watch the prince’s reaction and his thoughts on whether the statue resembles his grandfather.
