A landmark achievement – Eritrea meets V2020 goal for refractive errors human resources

Brien Holden Vision Institute

https://www.iapb.org/news/a-landmark-ac ... -resources


First batch of optometrists at their graduation ceremony

After 9 years of running optometry training programme, Asmara College of Health Sciences (now Asmara University Orotta College of Medicine and Health Sciences) in Eritrea produced the country’s first optometrists. The 22 graduates (9 female and 13 male) were conferred their Bachelor of Optometry Degree in August 2019. Considering that the country has also trained 120 Optometric Technicians, this brings the total number of human resources for refractive error services in Eritrea to 144. With an estimated population of 3.5 million, this achievement makes Eritrea the first country supported by Brien Holden Vision Institute https://www.iapb.org/member/brien-holde ... institute/ not only to meet, but exceed the VISION 2020 human resources target for refractionist 1: 50,000 population.

Brien Holden Vision Institute began the optometry training programme in Eritrea in 2010 in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Asmara College of Health Sciences. Since then the college has trained 120 Optometric Technicians, all of whom have been employed by the Ministry of Health in the 15 Vision Centres that the Institute supported the Ministry of Health to set up around the country. The 2-year diploma programme that produced the optometry technicians was intended to be a short term and immediate solution to the dire need for refractive errors personnel in Eritrea, with the long-term plans of training optometrists. The diploma programme was therefore discontinued in 2016 after the 5-year degree programme in optometry had begun in 2013. The 22 optometrists have also been employed by the Ministry of Health in the various Vision Centres in the country to provide more advanced eye care services beyond the optometry technicians’ scope.

I Love Eritrea (@Can_Do_People) Tweeted:

There is no single Eritrean, deported back to Eritrea from Norway. The country immigration deported many illegal immigrants; including Eritreans back to different European countries, where they got asylum first. This is what some sad "Y'akle" People, are celebrating about? Smh.

I wonder why so many flee or die trying from Penitentiarea. .

Can you decode it?

P.S. as far as I konw, we have a country called ERITREA and not penitent...whatever it means.

I coined the word "Penitentiarea" to indicate that the country of our fore-parents, Eritrea, has been turned into a giant prison by pfdj thugs hence the word Penitentiarea.

pen·i·ten·tia·ry

/ˌpenəˈten(t)SH(ə)rē/

noun

1. (NORTH AMERICA) a prison for people convicted of serious crimes.

2. (in the Roman Catholic Church) a priest charged with certain aspects of the administration of the sacrament of penance.

http://www.royalark.net/Ethiopia/tigray5.htm

...Family background of the Eritrean tyrant
Isayas' father, Ato Afewerq/ki is from Adi Tanqua-Milash/Tembien and they trace their roots to Agame Awraja of Tigray in Ethiopia.

Isayas's father used to work in Mekele, the capital of Tigray Province. Isayas's father used to work at the Ministry of Land Reform until his retirement. Until he died, those who knew him in Tigray used to identify him as "the man who wears a black suit, a black "cravat"/neck tie and a black hat."

Isayas's Mother Woz. Adanech Berhe is from Adwa in Tigray. This is also the birthplace of the father of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi of Ethiopia.

Isayas's uncles (via his father) are: Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha, Captain Mekonnen Abraha, Ato Hagos Abraha.

Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha (Isayas's uncle) was the Enderassie/Governor of Wollo province in Ethiopia during the reign of Emperor Haileselassie. In 1964 (E.C.), ae Tigray cultural group based in Mekele visited Dessie, the Capital City of Wollo after their tour to Asmara. The Governor of Wollo at the time, Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha, (the Eritrean President's uncle), in a special dinner, organised in their honour expressed his pleasure and gratitude to the Cultural Group for their initiative of popularising the Tigrean folklore music and dances and he told them that he was a Tigrean himself.

Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha revealed to them that his own mother was from Agame Awraja in Beganta-Afeshum Woreda (sub-district) in a village called Qil-a-at" in Tigray, Ethiopia. He also told them that his father was from Tenbien in Tigray.

Navy Captain Mekonnen Abraha was "married" to the daughter of Dejazmatch Ghebray, who was a student at Empress Menen School in Addis Ababa and he is believed to have children from her. Ato Hagos Abraha was a student at Teferi Mekonnen School in Addis Ababa in the mid 1940s. He discontinued his studies due to ill health and later died when he was working at the National Bank in Addis Ababa.

...Isayas's grandmother (on his mother's side) is called Woz. Medhin "Berad" and she is from Adwa in Tigray. She is the sister of Fitawrari Kidane Mesel.

It is also alleged that Fitawrari Kidane is the father of either Ato Kassahun or Ato Yemane Kidane (otherwise known as "Jamaica") of the TPLF/EPRDF ruling group of Ethiopia. If this is true, it implies that Ato "Jamaica" and Isayas Afewerki of Eritrea are in a sense brothers by our Eritrean/Ethiopian definition but a cousin in Western sense. It is also said that some of the closest people around Isayas Afewerki also have a Tigrean blood. In short, many of those who are fanatic anti-Ethiopia in Asmara are mainly Tigreans/Ethiopians by origin and those who have had strong links and connections with Tigray, in particular, and Ethiopia, in general.

Isayas's aunt (the sister of Isayas's mother) is called Woz. Hana. She is the wife of Ato Belay. Both Woz. Hana and Ato Belay are from Adwa. It is alleged that their children are living in Sweden.

Isayas's uncle (on his mother's side) is married to a woman from Adwa and has a daughter named Woz. Zewdi, who is now said to be living in Germany.

From the above information, the only "Eritreanness" of Isayas Afewerki is that he was born in Eritrean soil and he is married to Woz. Saba Haile of Shimezana of Eritrea.
