Ethiopian hostages safe
Tongue lashing will not get the hostages free (Source: Dekialula)
"As if tongue lashing makes any good there are more than fourteen instances of use of the term 'terror/terrist/terrorism' within that single press statement. How is that to help get free the hostages? How does that help Ethiopia affirm its security? How is that supposed to ascertain Ethiopia's right to protect and defend its sovereignty and safety and wellbeing of its citizens? I hope they are not making the hostages a sacrificial lamb. ..."

The Essentials of Woyane Happy Birthday, Woyane!
By Asghedom Ghebremichael
In the final analysis, therefore, the visionary fathers had it their way in a
democratic process. Subsequently, they constructed inviolable -cardinal -guiding

is a prerequisite. This required going to the peasantry, which accounted for
nearly 90% of the total population.
