Don't let a quick search mislead you that Fano is a militia in Amhara region. Fano is more than that!! It is a tribute to brave freedom fighters who protected #Ethiopia from colonial ambitions. Today, Amhara youth embrace its legacy, fighting for Ethiopia's future and its cherished flag. That the essence of #Fano is a shared #Ethiopian spirit. #JusticeForEthiopia

An Army of Black Africans under the Leadership of Emperor Menelik II Decisively Defeated the Italians
In the late nineteenth century, when it seemed that all of Africa was destined to come under European colonial rule, Ethiopia succeeded in thwarting European conquest and preserving its own independence.
The pivotal event in its resistance to Italian colonial was the Battle of Adwa, in which an army of black Africans under the leadership of Emperor Menelik decisively defeated the Italians. The Battle of Adwa, which marked the first time in the modern era that a non-European power had defeated a European power without the aid of a European ally, is considered one of the most important events in modern African history.

In his EBC interview, the heartless scum bag PP cadre, the Mayor of the so-called Sheger City, tried to argue that "They were poor and illegal," "Now they are legal.". He then quipped, "Legally poor!" to justify, rationalize, and normalize the inhumane actions of Oromia PP thugs & thieves. Also extensively reported by both @EthioHRC
