ZONE 9 BLOGGER PARADISE IN ETHIOPIA

Ethiopia has a bad reputation when it comes to press freedom. But is that accurate? Are the latest arrests of six bloggers and three journalists (symbolised by the #FreeZone9Bloggers campaign) a symptom of a larger crackdown on the freedom of speech? Or is it all an unfair generalisation? Ikenna has invited What’s Up Africa correspondent VersaChichi (aka Mollie Balogun) to hit the streets of the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa to find out!

What’s Up Africa is a video blog created and presented by Ikenna Azuike and filmed and edited by Sandesh Bhugaloo. Catch a brand new episode every Friday.
