Tigrayans are the Fathers' of Eritrean Nationalism

Post by Mesob » 21 Apr 2025, 00:16

Sometimes, I ask myself: Why do the elite Tigrayans stir problems here and there? The fathers' of the Eritrean nationalism movement was started by two Tigrayans who hated the Orthodox Christian Ethiopian Church and its king Haile Selassie.
One was a Lutheran Protestant teacher and journalist Ato Woldeab Woldemariam and the other was a Jeberti Muslim of Tigray and Wello origin Abdelkadir Kabire who was a clerk in the Italian Colonial admistration. These two people hated everything about Ethiopia. They hated the Tewahado Church and they even hated the Christian Amhara king Haile Selassie more.
Let me tell you the Hamasien people, as Eritreans were then called, were a very decent people who never keep any grudges, a kind of on your face humble people.
Do you know that when the Ethiopian flag was banned in Ethiopia during the five years of the Italian occupation, it was legally flying in all Tewahado Orthodox churches in Eritrea, including in St. Mary of Zion Orthodox Tewahado Church in downtown Asmara. The Italians did try to ban the Ethiopian flag but the Eritrean Tewahado clerks and monks went on strike, saying this Habesha flag is the symbol of our church, equal to the Vatican's flag. The Italians relented and accepted it but not in occupied Ethiopia.
Are you surprised that Ato Issaias Afeworki is begging the Tigrayan TPLF, these days to save him from Abiy Ahmed?

Here is assistant Professor Amanuel Sahle, explaining how the Tigrayans fathered the Eritrean nationalism and another Tigrayan by the name Issaias Afeworki looked after the birth of an independent Eritrea. This is a Tigrinya language video.

The Eritrean nationalism was invented by the above the two disgruntled Tigrayans: the first was a Lutheran Protestant who hated Tewohado Orthodox and the second was an Arab wannabe Abid Jeberti from Wello-Tigray.
While Ras Woldenkiel was a very proud Abyssinian who had differences with Negus Yowhanes IV about power in Hamasien, while Degiat Bahta was a Catholic pro Italian who changed his mind later when he understood the white evil Catholic colonization.

It's shocking Tigrayans can't yet overcome their inferiority to Eritreans. That's why they claim every famous Eritrean as their own.

Weldeab Weldemariam was born in Adi Zarna, a small village near Tera Emni. Kebire was born in Massawa.

Case closed!
