Recently, after seeing the news bulletins about the fact that the EPRDF leaders were holding town hall-like meetings across most of the Addis Ababa sub-cities, and after observing...
Long time ago many including Aigaforum told the Diaspora and CUD supporters, that some of the CUD affiliated websites like ER and ethio media were lying left and right. No one seemed to have listened/read the warning then but these days, one by one, they have started to realize they ignored the advice at their own peril!
Yesterday it was Ledetu, Solomon Tekalgn and Shaleqa Yoseph that realized the reality of the lying media that support CUD. Today it is Solomon Bekele and Hailu Shawel himself the “God of Kinjit” that is realizing the reality! ER called Hailu a “dictator” and smeared Solomon Bekele alleging he has jumped ship to Berhan Nega side.
In Tigrigna it is “Aybelnando” and in Amharic well…Dr Getachew Haile I need help here…what will you say in this case? [Zeru Hagos, Oct 05, 2007]

Pax Africana
The dignified manner with which millions of Ethiopians celebrated the dawn of their third millennium on September 11, 2007 is testament to the highly developed and deeply ingrained culture of peaceful coexistence and all encompassing love we have for one another. Although streets were full of vehicles and pedestrian revelers, there were practically no traffic accidents, fights or disturbances, (let alone terrorist acts) to mar what will be marked as a historic display of societal discipline.

Indeed, it is the culture of respect and love of God fearing Ethiopians that made the third millennium festival pass without any hitch. It was also this same culture that rejected CUD's call for violence against Tigrayans in 2005.

Millennium Hopes - NES Commentary No 11 Mammo Muchie, Chair of NES
It should not have taken this long- 11 commentaries long, to realize the
elite and by extension the extreme Diaspora was taking Ethiopia down the
slippery road to an educated person such as Dr Muchie, but, we know the
saying better late than never was coined for a purpose...thus good job for

A year ago, this month, we lost Araya Zerihun due to a sudden heart attack. Araya was one of a kind “Harbegna Lemat” (a

over the world mourn the loss of Araya Zerihun and to this
day many are finding it hard he is really gone! Araya we miss
you! Circus Tigray has produced a short musical documentary
on his life.
