Little do the people at @AfricanChildFrm know that Daniel Bekele oversaw the mass murder, starvation and rape of hundreds of thousands of children of Tigray. Little do they know that he tirelessly worked to prevent any investigation into, justice and accountability for

Who are the Tigray Defense Forces (TDF)?

The TDF comprised #Tigray|ans from all walks of life: university professors, students, medical doctors, engineers, artists, teachers, farmers, self-employed youth, retired soldiers and active-duty #ENDF soldiers who joined the resistance.

The war in Iran will probably stymie the prime minister’s growth plans. But the biggest threat to his economic vision is his political one https://t.co/nBOiO89Uph

Commenting on Ethiopian election: “The polls are primarily a symbolic exercise intended to confer legitimacy on the incumbent. Multiparty elections in Ethiopia have never been a genuine contest with the real possibility of changing government» @aljazeera https://t.co/qMJj4a9LYZ

Ethiopia is about to hold another sham election. Real opposition parties face obstructions while fake opposition parties are allowed to flourish. https://t.co/F88ZAPXnrb

Ethiopia’s prime minister wants to create a rich, powerful country that can act as the dominant power in the Horn of Africa. But the risk of a catastrophic regional war remains worryingly high https://t.co/LePOM3hDQb

"The biggest threat to Mr Abiy’s economic vision is his political one." A good look at the state of Ethiopia the week before elections that will renew Abiy's mandate. The real question is what comes next? https://t.co/Y1ubaDEraq

@reda_getachew Leadership means earning trust, not tearing others down when you lose it. If you couldn’t convince the team before, criticizing them now won’t rewrite the story…growth and accountability will. TPLF team you couldn't convince only proves why they moved on.

@KennedyWandera_ That’s wonderful!

Congrats Sebastian and Kenya!

A patient arrives at a hospital on a donkey, accompanied by family members, due to a severe fuel shortage in Tigray. People are forced to rely on traditional means, delaying care & increasing suffering.

We urgently request fuel.
Let us act now to save lives & reduce suffering.

[Omna Tigray @OmnaTigray]

If the rhetoric doesn't change, the reality will only get worse.

The same HRW report documents over 9 million children out of school due to conflict, ongoing forced displacement, a crackdown on independent media and civil society, and deep cuts to humanitarian aid.

The consequences of unchecked polarization are not abstract. They are being lived by millions of Ethiopians every day.

Illegal occupation &admin control do not render a region contested..The historical record and established nomenclature confirm that this area is an integral part of Tigray. Zt is why we see current occupiers/ a criminal enterprise characterized by targeted ethnic cleansing.

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

Authorities and security forces in Ethiopia’s contested Western Tigray Zone are arbitrarily detaining ethnic Tigrayans and imposing a discriminatory system that severely restricts their movements, employment, and access to services.

[Abe K. 🇺🇸 @AbeKidane]

@PMEthiopia What is Addition? FYI Meles Zenawi stands out as Ethiopia’s most impactful prime minister. His era delivered stronger GDP growth (~10.8% vs. Abiy’s ~4-5%), greater poverty reduction (55% to 20% vs. stagnation under Abiy), and relative stability, and many more. You just talk ().

@PMEthiopia African?

Just a reminder, you are ONLY PM of south Ethiopia!
