It is official, Abiy Ahmed Ali is the only leader who terrorizes the people in his own country using Mig, drones, helicopters and heavy artillery. There is a clear pattern and evidence that in many places across the country in Tigray, Amhara, and Oromia region that he uses extra forces on civilians just to pressurize the forces that fight to leave cities. Two days ago when Abiy Ahmed Ali military forces faced defeat in Wuchalle, he immediately ordered Mig, helicopters, drones or heavy artillery to hit civilians in the city. Such terrorizing actions have been done for years across Gojam, Debretabor, Gondar, in Shewa, Wello, Tigray many places, Wellega and recently in Moyale. If Fano or TDF win over his forces. Terror acts will rain on the civilians immediately. There is no leader on earth who hires mercenaries and drone technicians who indiscriminately kill their own civilians. Abiy Ahmed Ali is a terrorist enclosed by suits and the main power seat in 4 kilos in the country. Imagine a terrorist leader seating in Number 10 in London or seating in Washington DC buying Sue 23 in Russia just to terrorize its own people. This is the daily reality for most Ethiopians, if not all.
This man has convinced himself to buy tens of thousands of suicide drones simply to unleash them on farmers, women, children , everywhere, including schools, churches, monasteries and more. This is not mere rhetoric. He is doing it in action, daily, somewhere in the country. He himself has said that every drone is signed off by higher officials, including himself. How could he order five suicide-drone attacks on a camp for displaced civilians in Ethiopia’s Amhara region, attacks that killed more than sixteen people, several of them children? This was reported by multiple international media outlets. The target was the Hayiq Jari 2 Turk camp near the town of Hayiq. And this is only one documented case among thousands of such terrorizing strikes. In Tigray, in Rama, Abiy Ahmed Ali ordered several suicide drones to strike people indiscriminately because he believed TPLF leaders and TDF forces were present. What kind of thinking is this? What kind of belief? Or is it simply a sickness? He thinks he can purchase and assemble suicide drones and other drones to kill the majority of the country’s ethnic groups. He believes he can terrorize the people into submission and remain in power.
In the past few weeks, Abiy Ahmed Ali has intensified his terrorizing scheme. He took all the new ministers in his cabinet to military training grounds. Imagine a country of 130 million people, where government decisions are critical to countless national issues , you would expect each minister to work hard to improve the lives of the citizens. Instead, they were all sent to military training camps. Probably, most of the newly appointed ones thought to enjoy their new role, but the crazy terrorist man had a surprise for them: to go to military camp. Most of them appear stressed, as shared on social media. The mad, terrorizing leader forces them to do push-ups and other drills while dressed like 18-year-old army recruits. Looking at several of the women and the older Birhanu Nega, Minister of Education, it is clear how this sick leader with a terror-creating mentality is tormenting them even at their age. The scene shows that the country is on a different, crazy path. It reveals instability and madness at its highest point. This is not patriotism in the face of external aggression. This is pure craziness displayed at the top, filmed with expensive cameras and turned into propaganda. No healthy country does this, unless it is like North Korea.
Abiy Ahmed Ali is hired by the UAE, a proxy state used by others to do their dirty work. This means he himself is a hireling of those who are, in turn, hired by other forces. It is evident that the powers behind this tragedy in the Horn of Africa and beyond are the ones advising him, providing resources, and giving the necessary cover. That is why Abiy Ahmed Ali is supporting the RSF against the Sudanese government and people. The evidence shows that Abiy Ahmed Ali is not only creating conflict along ethnic lines inside Ethiopia, turning one ethnic group against another (Oromo against Amhara, Oromo against Somalis, Somalis against Afar, Afar against Tigray, Tigray against Amhara, and so on), he is also actively working to destabilize Eritrea, Somalia, Sudan, and even recently Kenya. This proves he is a mole planted in the country to destabilize the entire region so that other forces can achieve their aims. That is why we see mercenaries in Tigray. That is why we see foreign citizens working as drone experts and technicians, striking Ethiopians across the country. No leader on the planet does this: using foreigners, especially of another faith, to hit ancient Christian monasteries and churches that have stood for many centuries. There is a lifelong mission hidden in this tragedy. The world remains silent because of its own conflicting interests. If this were two decades ago, Abiy Ahmed Ali and all his associates, including Jawar Mohammed, would have been actively hunted for justice as top terrorists. But times have changed. Other priorities have taken over, and such terrorists can now sit in the highest echelons of power and use social media to fabricate terror in broad daylight.
Jawar Mohammed, who has become the right hand of Abiy Ahmed Ali on media and social media, once said that he came from a 99% Muslim community and that they would cut anyone who is not like them using a “mencha,” the tool used to harvest khat. Now he is defending the Arsi Orthodox Christian massacre carried out by extremist jihadists in the area where he comes from. He fabricates pure lies and claims that new coalition forces are doing what Abiy Ahmed Ali has done for the past eight years. These religious extremists are hiding behind the volatile ethnic-group conflict. They want people to believe that Oromos are killing Amharas or other ethnic groups. But the real driving force is the extremists within the Muslim faith. This goes against the many peaceful Muslim believers who have lived in the country for centuries. Ethiopia and Ethiopians have long been known for one thing: both religions living side by side without major problems. But now, extreme religious groups are doing the unthinkable in the name of supporting the terrorizing leader Abiy Ahmed Ali. No one is telling the truth. We need to expose the layers of terror so that all Ethiopians can live in peaceful order while respecting each other’s faith and way of life. The terror-mongering Abiy Ahmed Ali and Jawar Mohammed must be held accountable. They do not represent the vast Oromo ethnic group. Ask Lemma Megersa, Professor Hezekiel, Obbo Bekele Gerba, or Dr. Milkessa. They will denounce such terror without reservation. They know that this mindset is not healthy for the country.
Ethiopians from all walks of life should rise up before it is too late, before it is too late for the Oromo people, before it is too late for the Somali people, and before it is too late for the people of Tigray, Amhara, Afar, Benishangul, Gambela, and the southern regions. People must wake up in unity and overthrow this reckless government, which only terrorizes its citizens while being backed by external forces. Ethiopians should say no to this terror government. Ethiopians should say enough is enough. The unity of the Ethiopian people is vital right now. In addition, the international community must pressure this terror-architecting man to leave the country and help Ethiopians form a transitional government that includes everyone in the country.
