Ethiopian Gov’t Spokesperson Mocks Tigray IDPs, Sparks Outrage Government spokesperson Legesse Tulu is facing backlash after mocking Tigrayan IDPs demanding a return to their homes before the rainy season. In his social media , Legesse sarcastically claimed their protest was coordinated by Eritrean President Isaias Afewerki, whom he insultingly referred to as “a woman.” The remarks have been condemned as disrespectful and hateful, especially toward displaced Tigrians who have suffered for nearly five years.

Many are now calling for an apology and action from the federal government to protect IDPs’ rights and dignity. #Tigray #IDPs #PretoriaAgreement #LegesseTulu #HumanRights #Ethiopia
