“Ethiopian govt killed my son, forbid me from taking my son’s body & hold a proper burial. Vultures ate my son’s dead body”. They threatened to kill my entire family so i fled to Kenya with 300 residents of my town”. This is a testimony of a mother that lost her child in Borana.

#WhereisGammachuuAyana Ethiopia?
You insatiable land of death and suffering? How many families & communities must you destroy in your futile attempt to sustain a violent empire?
We are exhausted by your cruelty!!!!!!!! #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners
It’s been 24 hours since colonel Gemechu & 9 others were abducted by federal forces. @BBC_AfaanOromoo has reached out to Federal Attorney general and he responded “They are not in federal police custody, we don’t know where they are”. #WhereIsColonelGemechu
Leading Ethiopian opposition figure,Andargachew Tsige, calls on “millions” in Ethiopia to burn the US flag: “we shouldn’t hesitate to go to their Embassy & burn their flag”.
Important to note: Andargachew’s party, EZEMA, is the hinge that ties Abiy Ahmed & Isaias Afeworkie
We always knew who runs the show, and for whom. The crime is piling: the genocide, the war crimes, the treason, the sale of country's limited resources--everything is as much on them as on the PM.
"Breaking! Federal police has abducted Colonel Gemechu Ayana&9 others as they stepped out from Prison.Their whereabouts is unknown.Yesterday court acquitted 12 of them.Once again Federal police showed us that they are above the law and that court order means nothing to them."FB.
#JusticeforAmanuelWendimu Who is killed by #AbiyAhmed’s Military force in the center of the town Dembi Dollo. We will not rest until the perpetrators of this heinous and state violence actors come to justice and refrain from further red terror type killings.
#Oromogenocide
I am glad that the EHRC expressed its stand when it come to the Extrajudicial killing of Amanuel Wondimu in Dambi Dollo, Oromia. I also urge and encourage the commission to make good in its promises to investigate more and let the world know about its findings.
Nothing more painful that seeing what is happening to children in Palestine. History will judge the US for allowing the state of Israel to run an Apartheid state. 💔
