PM Abiy has still a chance to turn around his fate and the fate of Ethiopia1

The change process that was initiated by Dr. Abiy about two years and half ago is facing a major resistance by different stakeholders and there is a high risk that PM Abiy may abruptly decide to resign, which could create a major leadership vacuum in Ethiopia. Though quite a number of people are calling for immediate resignation of Pm Abiy, I am with an opinion that Ethiopians give him one last chance and the following are my recommendations:
- The major shortcoming/ weaknesses of PM Abiy are:
- He was not able to participate all key internal stakeholders and create a shared vision on the change process including the objectives and goals
of the change process and the concept of MEDEMER
- He extended the election without meaningful participation of the competitive political parties
- He created unprincipled and unholy relationship with Isaias Afeworki that strained his relationship with TPLF. Actually he tried to play Isaias
against TPLF for short term political and military gains
- Knowingly or unknowingly he became a dividing factor instead of unifier which is in a direct opposition to his MEDEMER idea
- Divergence between his words/speeches and the actions he has been taking
- Misunderstanding of his divine assignment. God never give a blank check and He expects HIS appointees to follow his directive second by second/
minute by minute, hour by hour and on a daily basis. Abiy knows very well he is appointed by God but he failed to understand how to be
directed and guided by the God who gave him the assignment
- Abiy is now crossed his own red lines and he is killing and arresting his own people
- Recommendations
- Spend one week in front of God and seek God's guidance on the way out
- Officially apologize for the people of Ethiopia on your wrong doings during the last two years and half
- Stop interference of Isaias Afeworki in Ethiopia's internal affairs and curtail the relationship to be only among two independent nations
- Resolve misunderstandings/conflict/rivalry with TPLF peacefully based on win-win arrangement
- Release all political prisoners and conduct all inclusive and rational negotiation to develop a road map for the transition of Ethiopia to democracy
- Immediately stop killing and arresting people in Oromia or else where.
- Declare cease fire with OLF and try to solve problem peacefully
- Do not arrest/harm Ato Lemma Megerssa
