ETHIOPIA WITH POUPET HAILEMARIAM DESALEGN

Ethiopia has become the biggest aid recipient in Africa, though Meles’s dead sprit of government is only able to partially stabilize either the country or region.

Ethiopia’s political system and society have grown increasingly unstable largely because the TPLF has become increasingly repressive, while failing to implement the policy of ethnic federalism it devised over twenty two years ago to accommodate the land’s varied ethnic identities. The result has been greater political centralization, with concomitant ethnicisation of grievances. The closure of political space has removed any legitimate means for people to channel those grievances.

The government has encroached on social expression and curbed journalists, politicians, non-gov­ern­men­tal organizations and religious freedoms. The cumulative effect is growing popular discontent, as well as radicalization along religious and ethnic lines. Meles adroitly navigated a number of internal crises and kept TPLF factions under his tight control. Without him, however, the weaknesses of the regime he built will be more starkly exposed.

All-TPLF affair, even if masked beneath the constitution, the umbrella of the EPRDF and the prompt elevation of the deputy prime minister, Hailemariam Desalegn, to acting head of government. Given the opacity of the inner workings of the government and army, it is impossible to say exactly what it will look like and who will end up in charge. Nonetheless, any likely outcome suggests a much weaker government, a more influential security apparatus and endangered internal stability. The political opposition, largely forced into exile by TPLF, will remain too fragmented and feeble to play a considerable role, unless brought on board in an internationally-brokered process. The weakened Tigrayan elite, confronted with the nation’s ethnic and religious cleavages, will be forced to rely on greater repression if it is to maintain power and control over other ethnic elites. Ethno-religious divisions and social unrest are likely to present genuine threats to the state’s long-term stability and cohesion.

So our Ethiopia is now a days on the right time to avoid TPLF/EPRDF and we Ethiopians are make hand to hand and stand up against the regime.

ETHIOPIA WITH OUT TPLF IS FREE!!!
