This is the truth! In Stockholm there was one Ethiopian restaurant. I went there once, and it was ok, but nothing spectacular. This must have been about 20 years ago or so. Then it closed, and a new one has opened close to my father, but it never seems to be full.
 If I remember correctly it kind of tasted like very spicy indian food with weird flat bread that I didn't like.

In Africa the staple is 'mealy pap' - maize porridge. Prolly what the yanks call 'grits'.
That and some roast meat or curried meat is a find dish.
Africa has - or had - plenty of meat. And fruit. But not much beyond millet  for starch and they sensibly avoid vegetables.
Maize is an imported crop. As are most vegetables.
Ergo there is no 'traditional african cooking' per se.
Just an ox on a bonfire.
