Biniam 🇪🇷👍finished safely on time after the challenging fourth stage to retain the points jersey.
Even if the fifth and final stage is uphill, he has the potential to win the jersey if he climbs the Port del Garbi uphill by a narrow margin.
Good luck Binny in the final stage

December does not, normally, fall within the ignominious calendar of Eri-Influenza Season when Eritrea's assorted detractors ramp up and spew their run-of-the-mill vilification campaigns against Eritrea. Indeed, the predictable "Eritrea-bashing" ritual is routinely unleashed in May (Independence Month); June (Martyrs Commemoration); and September (Beginning of the Armed Struggle for Independence).

But for reasons that are not hard to decipher, there is a tinge of Eri-Influenza in the air these days.

As it happens, Potemkin Party minions seem to be in cahoots with the usual cabal of notorious Conflict Entrepreneurs - ኣሃዱ ገናዞን ሓንጨመንጭን - to intensify their demonization campaigns against Eritrea. The underlying purpose is to shift gear and deflect attention from PP's toxic and brazen agenda of "sovereign access to the sea" by couching their subversive campaign in the language of "victimhood and self-defense".

The tools employed to this end revolve around:

1. Portrayal of Eritrea as a perpetual destabilizer of Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa region. This is a hard sell for a regime that was profusely expressing, only three years ago, its profound gratitude - from the Prime Minister down to all sections of the Defense Establishment - to Eritrea for its principled support in Ethiopia's darkest times. PP's political and military officials are also on record on the origins and dynamics of the 1998-2000 Eritrea and Ethiopia border war that is grossly at variance with the spurious chorus that they are singing these days.

2. Eritrea's withdrawal from IGAD as "symptomatic of its isolationist agenda" and distaste for "multilateral forums". Again, this is too trite to merit much elaboration. But for the record, Eritrea was pivotal in expanding the restrictive mandate of IGADD (confined to combatting drought and desertification when it was established in 1986) to encompass a much more relevant and broader scope of regional economic cooperation and development as well as conflict prevention and resolution. Eritrea's conviction for a robust regional organization stemmed from, and was linked to, the more realistic and phased approach of Continental economic cooperation and integration through a modular process. But IGAD's abject and repetitive failures - its subservient position during the border war; its shameful endorsement of Ethiopia's unwarranted military intervention in Somalia in 2006; its muted reaction to the illicit Ethiopia - Somaliland MOU; its pathetic silence in the face of Potemkin Party's aggressive agenda of "sovereign access to the sea"...etc. have rendered it a liability to Eritrea and other Member States affected by its pathetic/harmful track-record. In the event, Eritrea's withdrawal from IGAD cannot derail or diminish its vibrant agendas of regional cooperation as its continued memberships in COMESA (which brings together 22 countries from southern, eastern and central Africa) as well as the Council of Arab and African Coastal States of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden attests too.

3. Disparaging Eritrea's economic development agenda and governance structure. Here again, the Potemkin Party/Conflict Entrepreneurs' fallacious and distorted analyses are too hollow to merit serious response. Eritrea's overall performance in the face of relentless hostilities including intermittent wars of aggression, sanctions and other subterfuges, is a testament to the unparalleled resilience of its people and the prudence of GOE's policies. And the myopic mindset of the PP aside, the countries and peoples of the Horn of Africa region ought to cherish the economic progress and well-being of all the constituent parts as they share a common destiny shaped by immutable geography. In any case, with the staggering statistics of 68.7% of the population classified as multidimensionally poor in spite of massive international assistance and IMF bailouts; and, spiraling internal conflicts that stem from, and are triggered by, a governance structure of institutionalized ethnic polarization; Potemkin Party zealots, hired lobbyists, and external apologists are not in a position to disparage Eritrea's economic and governance architecture.

SPOTLIGHT

Education in Eritrea: Context and Clarity
by Shabait Staff

"... Education was designated, in the post-independence period - a central pillar of Eritrea’s development strategy and made free of charge from the primary through the tertiary level. Efforts since independence have focused on rebuilding and expanding an educational system inherited in a severely depleted state. Hundreds of schools, learning centres, and libraries have been constructed or rehabilitated across both urban and rural areas. The number of schools has increased from just over 500 in 1991 to more than 2,300 today, while enrolment has risen from approximately 340,000 in the late 1990s to nearly 700,000 at present. Technical and vocational education has likewise expanded as part of a broader effort to diversify educational pathways and respond to labour-market needs".

"...Today, six colleges provide tertiary education across distinct academic and professional fields, including medicine and health sciences, education, engineering, business and economics, agriculture, and marine sciences. While these institutions initially focused on diploma and undergraduate (BA/BSc) programs to address urgent national skills gaps, they have progressively expanded their academic scope. Several colleges now offer advanced postgraduate coursework, higher professional certifications, and master’s-level programs in selected disciplines, reflecting both growing institutional capacity and evolving national needs".

Eritrea’s Exit from IGAD — A Long-Overdue Stand for Integrity 🇪🇷🔥

🌍 Eritrea’s decision to leave IGAD is NOT impulsive — it is the result of years of dysfunction, bias, and failure to uphold the very principles the bloc was created to protect.
When an institution stops serving regional peace and starts enabling violations, walking away becomes a responsibility, not a choice.

🔥 Why IGAD Lost Its Purpose — In Plain Sight:

🟥 Eritrea’s sovereignty was openly and repeatedly threatened by Ethiopia’s PM Abiy — IGAD did nothing.
🟥 Somalia’s territorial integrity was violated through a controversial MOU — IGAD did nothing.
🟥 Drone strikes on civilians in Amhara & Oromia — silence again.
🟥 Sudan is burning in a catastrophic civil war — no effective IGAD action.
🟥 IGAD endorsed a “peace deal” in Amhara that was dead on arrival — exposing its political capture.

The Core Problem: IGAD Became What It Was Meant to Prevent

✅ A politicized platform instead of a neutral regional body
✅ A megaphone for one regime instead of a guardian of regional balance
✅ A spectator to crises instead of a stabilizer
✅ A structure designed to fail — and it did

🟦 Eritrea’s Exit = Strategic Clarity, Not Isolation 🇪🇷✨
• Eritrea refuses to legitimize institutions that reward aggression
• Eritrea values principled diplomacy, not theatre
• Eritrea will engage in regional peace — but not through compromised platforms

“When the house no longer protects you, walking out is not rebellion — it is survival.”
