She helped escape several AAU students from torture by helping them jump from the trucks that were taking them to Sendafa. She didn't have any weapon. But that didn't stop the EPRDF tro... (more)

It is quite a shame for a person who should be caring for the well being of the Ethiopian people to invest so much funds on a statue when millions are starving. This is another sad moment in the history of Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. ……………. (more)

For many years, political scientist Steven Levitsky has studied regimes he called “competitive authoritarianisms”. He distinguished these regimes from democracy on the one hand and full-scale authoritarianism on the other. Some of what he has said about them: Competitive authoritarian regimes are civilian regimes in which formal democratic institutions are widely viewed as the primary means of gaining power, but in which fraud, civil liberties violations, and abuse of state and media resources so s...

I must admit that my observation is based on a very small unscientific sample. It could turn out to be an observation with a lot of heat, but no light! A friend of mine in Addis Ababa forwarded me e-mail exchanges among several members of EPRDF. From the way they composed their prose and the quality of their arguments, it seemed to me that most of them were well-educated. The focal point of their discussion was the success of the party’s efforts in appealing to a few energetic and educated young men and ... (more)

After harvesting just 50kg of grain last year from his tiny plot in an arid corner of Ethiopia's Amhara region, Asmenaw Keflegn knew he would have to ask for help. But when the 44-year-old member of the opposition All Ethiopia Unity Party asked his village chairman to put him on a list of those eligible for emergency food aid from foreign donors, he was refused.
