I have come to realize over the past decades that the terrorist Woyanne party and its Killil concept was too intellectually bankrupt, morally corrupt and offensive to Ethiopians. This murderous concept of statecraft was directly borrowed from the racist and Fascist Italian colonizers of our country. It cannot be reformed, and must be changed now to effect a sense of shared citizenship and nationality among all Ethiopians. Ethnicty based propagandists and agitators of hate must be banned and punished by law. Along with my distinguished colleagues, I have tried to expose and explain the oppressive apartheid characteristics of the TPLF ethnocentric system of killilization agenda on the pages of our erstwhile journal, The Ethiopian Register. Specifically, what was happening was not a democratization process at all, but an inntergenerational scheme of oppression and exploitation. Now this fact has become crystal clear to all.
The trouble with lying and deceiving is that their efficiency depends until a grasp of the clear notion of the truth (promoting uninterrupted ethnic animosities/strife among Ethiopians, and advancing the intended plunder & dismemberment of Ethiopia in favor of a ‘greater Tigrai’) and what the liar and deceiver wishes to hide behind, by using such prestigious code terms as “federalism”, “democracy” etc. Once this hoax is revealed, it is game over. Empty and fake terms such as tehadiso are replaced by “deeper tehadiso” and even national “uplift” by the cornered Woyanne. This kind of verbal deception, however, can be maintained only, and only until the precise moment when the facts became incontrovertible (undeniable) to all , as happened in the last two or three years in Ethiopia.
Both the TPLF party and its leadership are genocidal fascist Banda offsprings whose instinct to dominate, steal and murder perceived opponents is engraved in their political DNA. Their greed is deep-seated. Everything they own has been looted from the suffering Ethiopian people. At the root of their kleptocratic system, there exists the divisive structures of apartheid walls, they have imposed on the Ethiopian people. These must be removed immediately, in order to restore a sense of common Ethiopian citizenship and to prepare citizens to partake in the nationwide democratic elections, which PM Abiy has promised would take place in two years. In one stroke, this act would solve the existential plight of populations in Wolkaite, Korem (Afla), Raya, as well as Afar, Bale, Harergey,Assosa, Gumuz among others. This policy move would have the additional benefit of changing the country’s political discourse. A further entrenchment of the ethnic categorization of citizens could well lead to catastrophic disaster.
In sum, apartheid is a quintesential system of minority and supremacist domination. It is how a criminally organized and well armed, minority ethnic/racial group can wield power and dominate over an effectively disenfranchised and fractured or “minoritized” majority. In Ethiopia’s case around 6% of the population is entitled to the spoils of office and the lion’ s share of the economy. This heinous system has been condemned internationally for rationalizing and commissioning untold crimes against humanity in the name of politics. It is basically a criminal enterprise designed for dealing with occupied populations. It is obviously man-made and in Mandela’s words it can be removed by the actions of human beings. As such, PM Abiy and Co. owe it to themselves to free Ethiopians from the dead hands of this evil and criminal system. PM Abiy please bring down these walls of apartheid now!
