No single person in this country has a mandate to hinder any progress in the country. Whether abiy or his surrogates donot have a legitimacy to stand against our will or advantages.
Whoever(including egypt) it is, cannot impose its will upon us.
We have full right on our water to hareness it for whatever purpose. If Egypt has the capacity to block the river, show us. How the hell on the earth they are crying on our water?
If it is necessary, we will go to hard way.
No one will stop us harnessing our water for whatever purpose.
In my opinion, Egypt should pay us for every drop of our water.

“President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi said on Saturday that dams on the Nile would have never been built was it not for the impact of the 2011 uprising, urging Egyptians not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
President El-Sisi's remarks in reference to the construction of Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), which started in 2011 raising Egypt's fears it could negatively impact its share of the Nile water, came during the session on "The effects of publishing lies in light of Fourth Generation Wars" at the Eighth National Youth Conference.
“In 2011 we were not ready for the major developments that took place… the country moved... however, platforms had already been set up... I stress that the very pure youths who went into motion wanted the best interests of the country,” El-Sisi said.
However, El-Sisi said the country "is paying since 2011 for one mistake... a price we’ve paid and will continue to pay," in reference to the construction of the Renaissance Dam in Ethiopia, which started in 2011.
"I have not said this in public before," the president told the audience.
“Dams would not have been built on the River Nile... was it not for 2011,” El-Sisi said, in reference to the popular uprising of January 2011.
“I’m saying extremely critical things. I’m telling you because the more dangerous thing is that you repeat [the same mistake] again,” El-Sisi said.
