Triangular Opposition Against EPP of Dr. Abiy!
It is interesting to observe that an opposition against EPP of Dr. Abiy is coming from three directions: Conservative Amhara elites, Hegemonist Tegaru elites and Republican Oromo elites.

The Amharas tried it thinking that he is supporter of their position because of his rhetoric about Ethiopian unity.
