Despotism is not an issue in TPLF and Tigray
Posted: 17 Feb 2022, 22:49
Power has been fairly distributed among all Tigrayan communities. There is no distinct difference between Raya and Adwa. There has been abuse of power by some TPLF cadres, which can be dealt with through administrative measures. TPLF leaders are control freak, which is a characteristic of dctatorship. Compared to other political groups in the region, TPLF is more democratic. There are Eritreans or half-cast Tigrayans from Eritrea working for TPLF and Tigray. There is no betrayal of these Eritreans in TPLF recorded. Some Tigrayans from Eritrea have sacrificed their lives to the cause of Tigray people and many are now giving their life to Tigray as they are joining TDF.
The Eritrean question for tigrayans is an internal question of Tigray Nation and secession of Eritrea from Ethiopia was right to give Eritreans a chance to self-rule. Unfortunately, Eritrea has failed itself and has betrayed Tigrayans. TDF and Eritrean democratic forces need to address this issue in a just way, where all Tigrigna speaking Tigrayans form one government to take charge of their affairs domestic as well as international, which there is only one Tigrayan government and no Eritrea as a country. Eritrea will have to join Tigray.
