Mengistu escaped Ethiopia on a trip that was arranged to visit militery training camp and Abiy to the front!
Abiy has no option but to vacate Addis Ababa as the allied forces are approaching it from different directions. To face his face and to manipulate history to his advantage he is claiming to go to the front but he knows the war is over. What he is going to do is to participate in one of the fronts and take some pictures and immediately fly to Eritrea and and announce he has established a government in exile.let us wait and see as the drama is played.
