The Fourth Revolution of All Citizens and Nations in Ethiopia is About to Erupt!
By Fayyis Oromia*
It is encouraging to see forces and scholars from almost all nations of Ethiopia coming together in the diaspora to cooperate against the incumbent fascist regime. We overthrew successive feudal regimes through an all-inclusive revolution by all citizens and nations in 1974. Since then, we have endured three fascist regimes—each favoring one ethnic elite at the expense of others. The Derg favored Amhara elites; the TPLF (Woyane) privileged Tigrayan elites; and now Biltsiginna promotes Oromo elites. Yet none of these regimes genuinely benefited the very nations they claimed to represent.
It is striking: Amhara elites were indifferent to the suffering of Tigrayans and Oromos under the Derg. Tigrayan elites ignored the oppression of Amhara and Oromo during the TPLF era. Today, some Oromo elites remain unmoved by the suffering of Amhara and Tigrayans caused by Biltsiginna. Enough is enough. All nations in Ethiopia must recognize this repeated pattern of “divide and destroy” orchestrated by fascist regimes. We must rise together and revolt against fascism.
For this to happen, each major opposition bloc must break free from outdated ideologies: the Amhara opposition from Derg mentalities, the Tigrayan bloc from TPLF’s divisive mindset, and the Oromo front from Biltsiginna’s ethnocentric policies. We need a common denominator—a united front fighting for freedom and democracy, to build a shared homeland grounded in liberty, equality, and fraternity.
