Studies must be conducted to establish whether there exist/existed discrimination in the supply of education to Ethiopians depending which region and ethnic group they belong, or whether the schools are in rural towns or in major urban towns.
I recently have come to know by accident that some Ethiopian secondary schools provided bicycle rider training and coin operated telephone booths to their students to call family and friends while some or many schools in Ethiopia like my Junior High and Senior Secondary schools in Gurage did not.
I also have come to know from recently dead Professor Beyene Petros and Field Marshal Birhanu Jula that they were inspired to be a scientist and an airforce fighter by the role models who were brought in by their schools to make a speech, respectively. My Junior High and Senior Secondary schools never brought in such role models.
Also, only once the Ethiopian Airforce came to my Senior Secondary school to recruit. No ground or infantry or navy division of the Ethiopian army came to recruit students from my high school.
These discriminations in education provision across regions and ethnic groups, across small towns and big cities, could be just a glimpse into a deeper and widespread malaise of official hate about places and groups that inform hate policies of the Ethiopian education ministry.
