Replacing TPLF Terror with OLF Hegemony??
Posted: 06 Dec 2020, 03:20
It has been a week since Mek’ele was repatriated by the Ethiopian National Defense Forces yet the city, and 500,000 residents with it, is still reportedly without access to the internet. To give a speech is one thing, but deeds have to follow. Mr. Ahmed can’t speak of giving grace to TPLF forces while concurrently keeping a whole region plunged in darkness. I’m not sure there was ever justification for cutting off the internet to Tigray to begin with; now that the conflict has come drawn to a close, Mr. Ahmed will lose all credibility if internet is not restored to Tigray promptly and urgent steps are taken to provide assistance to those who need it.
It was just a week ago that I wrote an open letter to PM Ahmed expressing my support for the campaign he was forced to undertake and wishing him success as long as his aims were altruistic. However, in that same article, I noted that I would not hesitate to speak out if I feel as though his actions were against the best interests of everyday Ethiopians. I did not fathom at the time that the benefit of the doubt would last less than a month let alone a week. However, the steps that Mr. Ahmed are taking is alarming to say the least. Best case scenario is that Mr. Ahmed removed a cancer and is now trying to heal the patient; worst case scenario is that he removed a threat in order to consolidate power on his way to becoming Meles 2.0. While I pray for the former, I fear the latter. I will not seal my lips for the sake of expediency and watch as Ethiopia replaces 27 years of TPLF terror with a new era of OLF hegemony. [continued]
