Abiy Ahmed Ali has received chemical weapons reportedly from UAE, close ally of the Abiy regime. The use of chemical weapons is banned under international law. But neither the spoiler nor the recipient abide by the rule of law
Reliable sources inform us the US is sponsoring a meeting on alternative scenarios on Ethiopia. I urge each one of us to make sure that Amhra are well represented. Fano must be represented. Amhara organizatons-- Popular Front, AEPAC, AAA must coordinate. No 1991 again!!!
I urge the world to know that Abiy Ahmed Ali of Ethiopia honestly believes he can solve Ethiopia's myriad of governance problems by jailing opponents. slaughtering civilians and waging wars. Speak up and say no to tyranny in Africa.
Refrain from using the term Ethiopian defense forces. No longer true. It is exclusively an Oromo dominated and led force attacking and killing Amhara. If a foreign power were to attack Ethiopia this force is incapable of defending Ethiopia.
Referendum on Amhara identify in Wolkait, Tegede, Telemt and Raya is con-artistry at its worst. You cannot force indiginous Amhara to change their identity and humanity. Stop this dangerous move that will lead to more bloodshed.
Use of drones, tanks and heavy artillery in Amhara towns and cities tantamount to war crime. Abiy used drones in Tigray and is doing same in Amhara region.. Killing children, women and the elderly. When does the US condemn this savagery,? When do Ethiopians say no more fascism
I urge all Ethiopians across the globe, especially Amhara, to demonstrate against and denoncue UAE supply of drones, bullets and spare parts to the terrorist state and government of Ethiopia dominated by tribalists and psychphants.
Does Ethiopia's defence force protect Ethiopia's borders and territory or the security of the Ethiopian people? The answer is no. Its leadrs are corrupt and immoral. Rank and file must abandon it in droves and save their lives and honor
For more than half a century, I championed and defended Ethiopia's place among nations. I did this as an Ethiopian and Black African. EPRDF shattered this tenet. It made ethnic identity supreme. Abiy Ahmed deepened it. Amhara have no choice but unite and fight back as Amhara
It is unfortunate and a strategic blunder for any person to pronounce that Amhara must agree to give up Wokait, Tegede, Telemt and Raya to TPLF in exchange of the Assab port. I urge Dr. Yonas Biru to retract his statement.
If Ethiopians think the Oromo Prosperity Party headed by Abiy Ahmed will lead Ethiopian society towards sustainable growth and development, then; they have no one to blame but themselves. Ethiopia's purse is empty. Stand up and fight together for justice and the rule of law.
Sources say that divisions among Abiy's generals has erupted. Lt. General Mariye Beyene is demoted. I repeat my call to the country's generals to side with the Ethiopian people and stop serving as a core part of Abiy's brutal and barbaric killing machine.
I ask you why Ethiopia's National Defense Forces that are attacking Fano refuse to defend the people of Gambella from foreign aggression? I hold the govenment of Ethopia accountable for making Ethiopia and Ethiopains insecure and vulnerable.
Abiy Ahmed's state of seige to strangulate and starve Amhara is barbaric, war crime, genocide by starvation. It is time for all Ethiopian's to fight for fundamental change in Ethiopia.
The Ethiopian census is a practical joke. It is reengineered by ethnic elites in power to demonstrate that the Amhara population has been declining since 1991. The intent behind is to demonstrate Amhara is a minority and must have no voice or repesentattion.
The most important bridge Ethiopia needs before physical bridges is restoration of the healthy bond among its diverse population. You can't build bridges while preaching hate and war.
Abiy Ahmed has failed as a leader and as a human being with a soul. He must do the right thing by resignation in the same manner as Hailemariam Dessalegn.
I urge the Saudi government to release Suleiman Abdelah. You cannot take sides with murderers and arrest a human rights activist. I would like Ethiopians across the globe to use the Hashtag "Freedom for Suleiman Abdellah Now" and tweet at least once a day.
Abiy Ahmed slaughtered 40 innocent civilians in a single day. One of his officials is quoted saying even ten million deaths out of 120 million plus people is nothing. This confirms Abiy Ahmed is determined to refuce non-Oromo, specifically Amhara by millions. Amhara unite
Ethiopia today is far worse than Apartheid South Africa. Becuase it is Black Africans who bar other Black Africans from entering Addis Ababa becuase they are Amhara
I commend Fox news for coverage of Atrocities of Amhara civilians by Abiy Ahmed's army in the city of Merawi, Gojjam, Amhara region. I urge other news organizations to do the same. Time to condemn savagery in Ethiopia. Time to hold Abiy accountable.
Time for Fano to ease the burden in the Amhara region. The fight needs to expand to the rest of Ethiopia quicklly; and non -Amhara victims ought to join.
Delusional Abiy Ahmed and generals continue to commit war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. They must be held accountable by the international community. Domestic adjucation towards accountability is virtually non-existent.
I urge the UN, EU and the AU to speakup and condemn Abiy's regime now. 100,000 Amhara prisoners including babies, pregnant women and the eldely are suffering. This is repugnant in the 21st century.
I want the internatinal community to understand that the Abiy regime is carrying out genocide of Amhara in the same manner as Nazi Germany against Jews. The international community can't afford to sit idle. Say something! Do something! Genocide is crime.
I am overjoyed with emotions to see thousands of young people in Addis Ababa chanting Fano is coming, Fano is coming. It is a matter of time when millions of residents who are distressed rise up.
One of the most effective tools to bring down the tyrannical regime headed by the tribal leader Abiy Ahmed Ali is economic boycott without let up. Stop sending your money through formal channels. Stop using EAL. Stop using Ethio-tele.Stop buying enjera
Blinken is traveling to Ethiopia to provide life support to a collapsing economy. I urge him to demand accountability for atrocities. Ask why Amhara are denied entry into Addis Ababa. why the Pretoria agreement to disarm TPLF is ignored completely.
The Abiy regime is reporteldy transporing and transporing tens of thousands of Amhara political prioners away from the Kaliti and other Addis Ababa prisons to other concentration camps. The international community has an obligation to intevene and stop human atrocities in Ethiopi
I have been urging the ICC to hold the government of Ethiopia led by Abiy Ahmed as well as tplf accountable for war crimes crimes against humanity crimes of genocide and rape. Impunity led Abiy and gang to commit more this time large scale genocide of Amhars. Act now
Ethiopians and the rest of the international community must call on drone suppliers to the Abiy killing machine to stop. They are a core part of the problem. They too are accountable for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. Stop Now!!!
Is there any rational government on this planet that uses drones to kill farmers who produce food,feed their families and consumers? This is happening in Ethiopia under Abiy Ahmed. Conndem this terrorist act.
When Aby Ahmed bars entry to Abune Petros, Secretary General of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church Synod, one of the most ancient on the planet, to his homeland, it is hard for me to entertain the notion that the Ethiopia I know exists. It does not. Abiy degraded Ethiopia!
If you do not find field marshall Berhanu Jula's asanine and ignorant statement that Amhara Fano killed Amhara Special Forces beyond belief, I question your humanity. Wonder what he might say if Egypt attacks the GERD? He may say Eritrea or Amhara attacked it. Chief of what?
Amhara intellectuals who still feel it is beneath them to identify as Amhara abandoning their Ethiopian identity live in the past. Post 1991 Ethiopia is a land of tribal identity. The constitution is tribal. Prosperity Party is tribal. Defend Amhara cause/ restore Ethiopianism.
I commend Reuter for its impeccable and unassailable investgative report ..In Ethiopia, a secret committee orders killings and arrests to crush rebels, sponsored by Abiy Ahmed. The international community must act and stop Atrocities in Ethiopia
Abiy Ahmed's decision to militarize the Amhara region amounts to a formal state of seige to kill, maim, incarcerate and starve Amhara to death. Amhara citizens must rise up and make militarizatin impossible. Abiy failed to impose his will in Tigray. Repeating same is ignorant.
The UN system is failing Ethiopia and Ethiopians again. Given absolute impunity, Abiy Ahmed's regime is conducting a state of siege, chocking the Amhara region from social and economic interaction, cutting telecom, electcitity and food supplies. This is war crime and genocide
It defies the imagination that FAO grants Abiy Ahmed Ali its Agricola Award at a time when close to 30 million go hungry each day and the trucks of hardworking drivers are burnt by terrorists.
Suleiman Abdella is one of the most popular human rights activists today. He champions our common cause of humanity, peaceful coexistence among religious groups, respect for the rule of law and democracy. Saudi Arabia will gain friends if its gov. releases Suleiman Abdella
Just listen to the message above and ask yourself whether there will ever be peace in Ethiopia under the current system. Singling out Fano that did not commit terrorism & leaving out the OLA Army wing Shine, Oromo Special forces is call to kill more Amh.

I am simply appalled by PM Abiy's unfortunate, untimely, dangerous and opportunistic misrepresentation and characterization OLA-shine that is a terrorist and genocider. With that of Amhara Fanno that fought side by side with ENDF. When has any Amhara force slaughtered babies?
Where in the world is the UN, the African Union, the EU and IGAD when Abiy Ahmed is bombing the City of Debre Markos, detroying economic and social infrastructue? Should Ethiopia's Nazist regime get away with murder? Do something. Do something? Abiy is repeating atrocities?
Amhara must stop fighting one another and defend thier very existence with a commitment to the same goal, save Amhara from extinction. Fight the likes of Herman Cohen together. No more slaughter of Amhara.
Just consider the following development facts,judge Ethiopia s status. Nigeria gdp almost half a trillion dollars and per capital income per annum 2500 dollars. Kenya gdp 390 billion dollars and per capita of 1851 dollars. Both twice Ethiopia's. Abiy spends money on drones.
I commend Chairman John James, Sub-Committee on Africa, for his penetrating questions yesterday. The Honorable Mike Hammer has the duty and responsibility to answer his and other core questions raised at the hearing. US foreign policy must be anchored on human rights first.
I learned from a reilable source in Addis Ababa that 4,000 people, all Amhara have been denied free movement into Addis Ababa. Oromo police, Special Forces, security stop buses and cars, review ids, allow non-Amhara in and deny Amhara from entry. Where are federals?
I want the entire world to know Abiy Ahmed convened an emergency session of his top kedership and sought consensus to use drones supplied by UAE, Tukeey and may be others to bomb and kill Amhara. How insane and barbaric is that? Fortunately for now, courage and principle stood.
The most corrupt, inept, cruel, openly tribal Ethiopian government leadership I witnessed in my life time. Compounding this is total ignorance, delusion, arrogance and hostility towards differing opinions and alternatives. To save Ethiopia from the abyss, systemic change vital.
Abiy' Prosperity Party agenda is ethnicity based . It is anti-humankind. It is racist and exclusionaty. It breeds nepotusm. greed and corruption. This is why I opppse the system . So should you.
Deceptions must stop. Accusing Fano for crimes: armed robbery, looting, abductions and commited by the Ethiopian regime, OLF/Army/Shine and Oromo Prosperity is repulsive and must stop. The march for freedom is unstoppable.
War crime, crime against humanity, crime of rape and crime of genocide differs by ethnicity. Six hundred thousand to a milion Tigreans, hundreds of Afar, Amhara perished. Amhara are being slaghtered like chickens each day. Ethiopians ought to unite and eject the barbaric regime
The European Union ought to show respect for human rights in Ethiopia and refrain from emboldening Abiy Ahmed as it did TPLF. Ethiopia needs peace now. Peace can only occur when Abiy's regime commits to human rights and the rule of law.
Ethiopia's generals must learn from the mistakes of the past. They must show integrity and salvage their honor and dignity. Side with the people, save your life, the lives of your children and grand children. The corrupt and repressive Abiy regime will no doubt fall.
Behind the strategic partnership between TPLF's Getachew Reda and Redwan Hussein is plot to extricate Amhara, for TPLF to retake Wolkait, Tegede, Telemt and Raya. Wake up and fight back.
#AmharaGenocideInOromia
The international comminity has an obligation to sanction Ethiopia where each and every day Amhara, increasingly Gurage, Wolayta and other ethnic minorities are being killed, arrested and jailed, disempowered and displaced, demeaned and demonized.
Why are some Middle Eastern countries like the UAE providding drones to a Nazi-like Ethiopian regime? These countries too are accountable for atrocities in Ethiopia.
Ethiopia today is like Apartheid South Africa under white supremacy. Oromo extermists with tacit approval of the Abiy government have sealed off Addis Ababa, barred Amhara from entry. What will come next is predictable. Down with Black Apartheid in Ethiopia.
Abiy Ahmd's war of state terrorism aganst Amhara is degrading the Ethiopian military. Suppose a foreign enemy attacks Ethiopia; what capability does Abiy's army have to defend the country?
Can you believe Prime Minister Abiy allocated 500 million Birr to entice, reward and empower Amhara in Gondar to fight and kill other Amhara. The new tool now is to replicate this model throughout the Amhara region and beyond. This tool will also fail.
I urge the international community to avert an all out genocide of Amhara. UN Under Secetary & Advisor on the prevention of genocide Alice W. Nderitu issued an alarming message warning of imminent genocide in the Afar, Amhara, Oromia and Tigray regions, targeting Amhara.
Abiy's regime is massacring Amhara in several towns in the Amhara region, the worst in the town Awra Godana town perpetrated by Oromia region Special Forces. Thousands slaughtered, bodies rotting in the streets, propeties looted and destroyed. Stand up and speak against genocide
What is the socioeconomic condition in Ethiopia that keeps children starving and thier parents unemployed? What explains the anomaly that Colonel Abiy Ahmed is globe trotting to buy military ammunition while Ethiopian children starve to death? Is this not unjust?
It is pathetic for Abiy Ahmed to declare that Oromo farmers and youth will go on a killing spree and slaughter thousand if he is removed from power. Clearly, these same folks embolden him to kill. So does support from the UAE Shame on enables
The insanity in Ethiopia must stop. Ethiopia's generals must abandon Abiy Ahmed and side with the Ethiopian people. If not, they too will be held accountable for war crimes, crimes against humanity and crimes of genocide. Abiy is incapable of leading Ethiopia.
Ethiopia's Oromo ethnic elite dominated Prosperity Party appals me to no end. Devoid of humanity it preaches prosperity. There is no country in the world that has propsered by dehumanizing, brutalizing and assaulting ordinary citizens and degrading national institutions. Godless!
If the tyrant Abiy commits another in a series of strategic blunders by declaring war against Eritrea, Amhara and Tigreans must oppose the war vehemently. This latest diversion is part and parcel of the Orommuma plot
Ethiopia today is hell on earth. Each day, an innocent person is killed or detained or robbed or displaced becauase of her/his ethnic affiliation. Look at the faces of mothers, children, the elderly and judge for yourself. How long would the world tolerate this? Say No to tyrants
Continued use of drones, military aircraft, tanks and mortars against Amhara civilians is tantamount to war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide for which Ethiopia's military is accountable along with Abiy Ahmed and his cabinet.
It is hypocritical for the EU to provide development aid to Ethiopia while Abiy's regime is commiting genocide of Amhara. Who benefits from this aid? Why is the EU doing this in Black Africa while it condemns Russia for bombing Ukraine and causing deaths? Do black deaths matter?
I recall that TPLF slaughtered hundreds of innocent civilians in Gambella; the regime that replaced it is doing the same. Ethiopia is a failed state. People must unify their asssets and stand up for justice .
Bombing children, girls, women and elders is war crime, crime against humanity and crime of genocide. Abiy Ahmed Ali and his gang must be hekd accountable for crimes
The leader of the second most populous country in Africa is degrading Ethiopia and Ethiopian society. The least you can do is expose the tragedy inflicted each day by a grandeur and delusional man.
I and others fought TPLF thieves of party, state and government to the teeth. I wrote a book titled organized plunder (ድርጅታዊ ምዝበራ). When Abiy took power and depicted TPLF "day light hynas" (የቀን ጂቦች) , had hoped the days of state thieves will be over. The opposite!
