የኦዴ ልጅ!

ይቺ ህጻን ስትገኝ የነበረችበት ገጠር ከት/ቤት በጣም የራቀ ስለነበር አትማርም ነበር ። ከዚያም አዋሳ ወዳሉ ዘመዶች የተወሰደች ይመስለኛል

Tesfa Nida is very controversial in Gurage. He is accused of biases against Gurage Muslims. Some alleged he had a direct input into the school riot in Gunchirye, Enor where some children died, others injured and many arrested including parents. At that very time his office in Welkite was vandalized. He is a kind of character that if you insult him listro, he would reply to "Oops! I am not a Muslim". Easy escape but not the right solution to the problem of Gurage.
He is from Enor. He studied films in Addis, college or university, private or public, I am not sure.

He left a bank account number to send financial help. He also left phone number to contact him for any questions.

Sodo is Amara. It's a culture in which Amara could comfortably live in without psychologically irks of religious symbolisms than a Silte or Welene Muslim Gurage. Too much Christian symbolism of the Cross embroidered on lady dresses. Of course a sign of rightwing christian power politics that had destroyed Muslim kingdoms south of Lasta such as Menz, Ifat, Shewa Robit, Ankober, etc to replace demography, culture and language. A cultural genocide always follows physical genocide of populations.
This archaic Orthodox faith that is hostile to freedom of choice in faith is creeping into Gurage. Tesfa Nida, I think is one. A Gurage nationalist but for Christians under the cover of pretensions snd disguises. He belongs to the self-selcted Gurage artists guild or the Gurage Hollywood.

The lyrics are from the pages of the manifesto of the US violent racist criminal outfit, the KKK that preaches black is dark is the image of the devil. It's also the relic of neftenya culture that condemned rural Ethiopians are geteres or uncivilized and urban citizens are Aradas or Ketemes. Surprised it still exists in Gurage that has breen most maligned by the feudal culture.
Why do you think Tesfa Neda was moved by the lyrics? He knew nothing about the girl's life before hand. She is not a talented singer at this age, of course she shouldn't be.
