One would say that it is a defining moment and a moment of truth for Ethiopians and friends alike to tell the good apart from the ugly. Every genuine patriot who desires to continue the union of all Ethiopians must join an alliance formed by Ethiopians of all persuasions to protest against an ethnocentric dictatorial regime in Addis Ababa. Collectively, though it is time to plan big and act quickly against the repressive regime whose desire is quite deferment from what Ethiopians wants in life. It is also time for genuine organizations to come to terms to unify their resources for a common purpose and further engaged in the process of amalgamating more of the greater public and Ethiopian civic and professional associations into a unified whole. At any rate, it is prim and proper for most of us to come to terms where we can avoid some low-level tit for tat on time and can offer our best instead. As then, still the greatness of our nation resides not in those narrowly based taskforces in power, or in those opportunist individuals whose twist of fate is on a whim but in the will, in the faith, intelligence and moral forces of our patriots
Yes, the doctrine of the TPLF is nothing but divisive and dictatorial which is a wrong way round to build one nation under the emblems of national unity expressed through our flags, slogans, national holydays, independence and solidarity amongst all citizens. Democracy, equality and social justice aside, flags, slogans, national holidays, independence and solidarity amongst all citizens regardless are the sources of power for any given government to utilize, but woyane abuses it, which is why the TPLF/EPRDF regime falls short both to be permanent and stable and be acknowledged by the society as is legitimate and officially recognized political entity in Ethiopia. For it declared that all of the national symbols and Ethiopian unity are worthless it failed to gain powerbase and continued merely to rely on its military force and his hand made coalition called EPRDF. Likewise, the TPLF created its parliament, judicial and executive bodies to claim its unconditional authority over the people. That is dictatorial!
With that said, since the vast majority of Ethiopians are well aware of this divisive and dictatorial doctrine of the TPLF they need to do away with it the same way Tunisians have done it some weeks ago. The doctrine of the TPLF/EPRDF is designed to put one ethnic group against another, one faction against its own coalition and all factions against the entire union. But Ethiopians must unit to end this divisive and dictatorial regime permanently. Yes, we know that that only assassins of our social and political progresses preach hatred and animosity in which TPLF is benefited and that is what the TPLF’S current political arrangement is all about. It is uncalled for and it is a negative energy if you will and we would not allow it to incite us or tempt us to join the TPLF’S political circus. Rather we choose positive energy and ideas over negative gusto and false pursuit of happiness of the TPLF. Because, historically we are required to recreate a new Ethiopia in which hatred and animosity are no longer pervasive. In other words, we ought to create an environment in which mutual trust and understanding are prevailing and most of all, an environment where the energies of all Ethiopians of all walks of life shall be devoted to constructive efforts
Besides, it must be known that the TPLF and collaborators are always behind several havocs and internal squabbles that we have been experiencing for some time from within. Besides, being lost in a world of our own, and weakening our sense of unity during discussions and leaning towards the side issues and tending to forget the main concerns and engaging with some low-level tit for tat at the expense of our genuine political and social objectives serves only TPLF’S purpose. So this pattern of political behavior has been highly manipulated by the TPLF and others in order to interrupt our hard work and to deter us from forging unity amongst ourselves
In conclusion, the rundown powerhouse of ethnocentric dictatorship in tandem with its mischievous political philosophy needs to get battered down by a unified force. A unified force that is prepared to resist any pressure on its way and a unified force whose governing, leading and directing capability is much better and greater than those narrowly based political unit in the capital. Likewise, the ethnocentric federal arrangement of the TPLF must be replaced by a political system in which former provinces and regions become autonomous and citizens of all provinces and regions are free and equal to elect their officials and participate in decision-making process on both local and federal levels of government in Ethiopia as well. In addition, replacing the
TPLF’S ethnic oriented federal arrangement with some broadly based coalition government in Addis Ababa is the first safety measure that our unified forces have to take on in order to bring about hopes and optimism for Ethiopians of all walks of life. Though, as mutual trust and confidence are the true interest of Ethiopians, one has to pick up where mutual trust and confidence are celebrated on the national level to boost the Morales of our society as a whole. Thereafter, mutual trust and confidence come to fore to play a major role in liberating the minds of the public and those are the conceivable measures any responsible government has to consider in order to secure of our social well-being and sense of worth as a society. In the end, Ethiopians shall have a representative government that will promote such measures as keeping the country whole and the people together

Yelfiwos, I can’t be able to make a distinction wheather you are a female or a male from your name though that is irrelevent to the subject matter. From my reading of your article I can’t see clearly wheather your intention is advocating to forge a coaliton among different group to ease and the suffering of our people to create confusion and havoc by self fulfing prophecy. on one hand you are saying that mutual trust and building confidence is vital to overthrough the tyrant in Arat Kilo, on the other hand however, you tried to classify people by their heirarchy by alegedly giving them your own “low” and “upper” class status. Make no mistake EPRP struggles for equality and unity of the people based on mutual respect.No upper class or someone who dream to be one will be allowed to be above the law in the future democratic Ethiopia. I urge you to appolgize for those who read your trashy article for misrepresenting the nature of you political affilation.
