On Sunday, Different songs from Eritrea, Sudan, Kenya, Somalia Djibouti and Ethiopia were aired.
This is the first time for Ethiopia to officially air Eritrean songs at the only and government owned television after both neighbors in 1998 went on a bloody border war that cost the lives of 70,000 people.
Beyond airing music, the show also presents a short introduction on history, culture, language, people Livelihood and other positive images of the countries under list.
It is believed that such a positive progress is a step forward to heal people to people relations of Ethiopia and Eritrea which still remain at odds
