The Oromo people have spoken up for the protection of human rights, democracy and demanded freedom on Irreecha Festival held in Finfinne/Addis Ababa and Bishoftu on October 2 and 3, 2021. People chanted #FreeJawarMohammed , #FreeBekeleGerba, #FreeOromoLeaders
Increasing number of people are facing serious food insecurity and famine while the govt that sworn in today is spending billions on a war(with its own people). The solution is to #FreeOromoLeaders, make peace with warring sides and have national dialogue. @UN@SecBlinken
Here is a rough translation of the relevant part of Daniel Kibret’s extremely inflammatory, likely genocidal, speech … Daniel is also known for his bigoted rhetoric targeting Ethiopian Muslims
.@PaulKagame will tell you he can smell the stench of this vitriol all the way from Rwanda.
Coming from a top advisor of PM Abiy, this’s as disheartening as it’s alarming, but it’s a pattern that only went downward since the day “daytime hyena” was platformed with cheer. #SayNo!
Abiy & the Amhara elite who run Ethiopia must release Jawar Mohammed, Bekele Gerba & all other politicians jailed for political reasons.
They can play a vital & constructive role at this perilous time.
No meaningful conversation can be had while they remain behind bars
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
A possible way out of our current conundrum is going back to a drawing table with all of the armed and non-armed political groups and then reach a new transitional terms with the sprit of effective self-determination and genuine autonomy for the regions.
Or else we are doomed!
