As you can see, the entire theater audience is" so excited"and "engrossed" by the charlatan who habitually pulls a rabbit from his pocket at a moment's notice. This reminds me of Megstus's last meeting in parliament. In Abiy's Ethiopia ,no Ethiopian can travel 50 kilometers outside of Addis Ababa without facing danger. Here, in a china-built meeting hall, he is trying to calm down the audience as the lead comedian-- might add-- as the Oromuma version of 'Alibaba,' while his disoriented Prosperity Party members play the role of the '40 thieves- fully aware of what is going on all over the country.' He is telling them that there's gold buried under the next mountain-- persevere comrades!!!
. Just four months ago, this clown's dreama used to revolved around Ethiopia becoming a wheat exporter to Africa and beyond, until the international community discovered that he was diverting aid food to be exported to Somalia and Kenya, with the leftovers going to his army. Last weekit was about the sea port, and this week ,"ከእዳ ወደምንዳ"
even the gifted Tsegaye Gabre-Medhin will not be able to come up with so much concoction . it's time for this good for nothing to go off the stage -- time for grown ups to take over.
