Report on Public Seminar / Hizbawi Mekete by Dr. Gideon
On December 11, 2011 Dr. Gideon Abay Asmerom conducted a public seminar in
Toronto, Ontario, Canada for the Eritrean community here. Participants came
from all over the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) as well as other neighboring
towns such as London and Kitchener. It is also important to note a leading
role was played by the youth (YPFDJ Toronto chapter) in the facilitation of
this seminar. After a brief introduction and welcome message from YPFDJ,
Dr. Gideon was invited to the stage to begin his seminar in which he
delivered a powerful, insightful and detailed presentation in regards to
the current prevailing political situation in the Horn of Africa region as
well as the new sanctions that have recently been imposed. During his
lecture, Dr. Gideon detailed the root of the hostilities weaved against
Eritrea through referencing evidence found in recent media reports, leaked
US embassy cables and the pre-independence history of injustice Eritrea
faced at the hands of the United Nations. Participants were informed that
the historic parallels Eritrea continues to face at the hands of United
Nations and the USA are not coincidences but are policies that have not
changed since the 1940s and will most likely never change anytime soon. Dr.
Gideon also reminded participants of the seminar that the only thing that
Eritreans can truly count on is the unity of their people. The lecture was
followed by a questions and answers period which was open to the public.
After the lecture, YPFDJ Toronto members presented a “New Years Wish” card
that will be sent to youth in Eritrea as a sign of support and appreciation
from Eritreans in Toronto for their dedicated service in the development of
the Nation.
Wetru Awet N’hafash!
Zelalemawi zikri n’siweat’na!
