NOV 20-23-08--AMAZING ARTIST OF THE WEEKEND: TORONTO MAN RETURNS TO ETHOPIA AS A POP STAR!!!

John Goodard of the Toronto Star reports that a Toronto man who once fled Ethiopia in terror is to return Saturday as the country's No. 1 pop star.

Kemer Yousef, who escaped on foot with nothing 24 years ago, has scored an unprecedented video hit with Nabek, a seven-track DVD showing him singing from a yacht in Toronto Harbour and dancing on the steps of Casa Loma. Clamour for his return has become so great that the central government is helping to arrange a six-concert homecoming tour that opens Dec. 7 at the East African country's largest indoor venue – Addis Ababa's 20,000-seat Millennium Hall.

For Kemer (Yousef is his father's name) the tour means seeing his family for the first time since he escaped across the desert to Somalia at the age of 20. His mother is in her 70s. His father is 103. The tour also means singing to former enemies. Read this amazing story at the link......
