Ato Ledetu should stick to his third way no matter what. It is the only easiest and safest road to travel to see a new united and prosperous Ethiopia. If it was up to me EPRDF would be better served if the likes of UEDP survive. After all as an EPRDF supporter I had like to think Ethiopia's current democratic institutions are capable to tolerate UEDP. Thus though I am not sure what kind of problems UEDP is facing that it is attributing to EPRDF, I think Ledetu should stick to remaining loyal opposition leader come rain or shine as they say!

I am glad to be the first to provide a comment.
UEDP has a point. EPRDF and the government should be more accomodating to a legal and genuine party.
Funding is one area. Hard to move and propagate on their platforms without money.

media is another... I watch Ethiopian TV but nothing about opposition parties is in the news. Hard to get into the population without access to media.

Both parties are two sides of the same coin.why do you expect us to comment on marriage of monkeys.

This must be a joke. First and foremost, there is no opposition in Ethiopia. Lidetu is just a phoney simulator who have no any clear vision of his own.

nothing interesting about EPRDF or Lidetu, wasteland

Aiga,

You guys, if you really want democracy in Ethiopia tell your bosses to give free and fair election to people of Ethiopia and they will higher who will work for them not against them as EPRDF (TPLF). Could you comment about ato Gezae Reda's appeal? TPLF is a fascist organization who is against the people of Tigray. Even Hitler didn't torture his enemies as TPLF did to suppose to be their own people.

What is the difference between Meles and Lidetu. May be a king and a slave, respectively. Meles is hell bent to keep the dominance of Tigrayans over other nations and Lidetu is approving it whole-heartedly. So, for me both are enemies and Lidetu is the worst one at that.

I nation which tries to silence one of it's brightest and sensable political leaders have no future. Leave Ledetu Ayalew alone, he is the only man with clear vison to lead us to the future. His pragmatism is unparallerd and he has never been part of that generation which is the curse of our nation

EPRDF is becoming dictator more than ever. i used to support the party but epecially since the recent time i start to realize that it is not the right party to rule the people of Ethiopia. at the same time i found that it is deceiving one self to expect goodwill from EPRDF. hence the best option for us or any opposition party is to rely on our selves. yihtser yiniwah ametsti, serekti, kehaditi michiflako ayiterifin eyu.

I truly witnessed there was free speech and space for the opposition in Ethiopia in 2005.

It has all gone away now, very sad indeed. If the TPLF regime chooses to crush the will of the people by guns alone I wander for how long they will last. The TPLF has lost their political marble when at time of incoming Obama they lock up Burtukan, a very popular young woman leader. What a political stupidity.

Ethiopians,
Please be sensible not to divide the country. I wonder the writer who posted on the web saying Tegre parasite and viva to olf, onlf and eritrea must see a psychiatrist or go to school to learn ethiopian history. First of all Tirgreans are the first source ethiopianism from Queen sheba to Emperor Yohannes and upto now defending the integrity of the country. If Tigray leaves for good from present ethiopia, do not expect the present ethiopia will exist. Tigray is everything for ethiopia from history to hormonising the people. they sacrified their lives to bring peace and tranquilty to the country in other face you fight to put the people into oppression neftgna ruling. we are in 21st century, think twice before you write and speak shamful words.

Dear Aiga,

If everybody was to go by the book,all EPRDF has to do is to stay true to its principles of advancing genuine democracy, stay true to the constitution and make sure its actions do not become a stumbling block to others who want to follow the same route in their own way.
That aside,as a good will and to alienate the polarised Diaspora political environment, it might help if the EPRDF and UEDP accomodate each other by compromising on some issues in the parliament or even appoint UEDP members to the executive branch, if they have the personal and patriotic integrity to work for the common interest of the country and do not stand in the way of executing EPRDF policies and if they are prepared to leave deep political beliefs aside.

Other than that,the EPRDF and UEDP are obviously political rivals and the EPRDF does not have the obligation to strengthen and reward its rival and vice versa.

All,

We know it is hard to maintain civil discourse in an open forum but please stick with the topic. If you want to propose a new topic then forward it to us, if not we will be forced to remove unrelated comments, also!

I have seen poverity from its core source and been a victim of it. Thank God things have changed.

Having said that I believe Ethiopia's needs to win this war against poverity by hook or croock. and I am to the conclusion that the so called 'opposition have nothing to offer towards this fight.

For the above reasons, I do support Rulling parties Revolutionary domocracy principles.

And as far as I am concerned EPRDF need to and must stay in power by any means neccessary. Election or else. As we have seen it in the last election we have an electorate who elected those "gudoch" and come tomorow they will vote anything but EPRDF.

Having the discussion is good, but my question to the moderator (of course to ato Zeru) is ther any thing coming out of it? I mean is it going to be transmitted to the parties? May be if you do make clear this you may see more participation and valid point for or against. Don’t you think?

I agree that "Ato Ledetu should stick to his third way no matter what. It is the only easiest and safest road to travel to see a new united and prosperous Ethiopia."

His party did not take this peaceful way of struggle to make the EPRDF happy. I believe it is its principle and it has to endure with it since it is the best and safest way. E. Medhin should not expect prize from EPRDF but from the people, which will need its own time. However, the EPRDF has also responsibility to work closesly with them. We all have to help this peaceful party to go a step forward. I tell you guys, I am a strong EPRDF supporter but I still have a strong sympathy to E.Medhin and I am sure their strategy is winning hearts. It should continue in the same way and there is no doubt that is going to be a second alternative to many Ethiopian - a matter of time. Lidetu, Musie and co. keep on going.

Pls.Brother, sister even those u think u have/had education include those especially living abroad been participate or have bloody in u'r hand even its dry from past ruler, u can't sleep in peace because of u'r against good things whatever it's done in eth. See not past century (u don't have to b historian) in near around u'r neghiobour country, ppl fight killing each other somalia,sudan, DRC,ETC WHY /those mass problem cause by a few lier like u dividing ppl, no respect for those inncont ppl to live hand in hand.

UEDP sacrificed its reputation to give TPLF a chance to change its dictatorship ways. i feel bad for Lidetu. he was a patriot for giving dictator zenawi a chance instead of acting loud and annoying like hailu shawel. but i am sorry to say Lidetu got nothing in return. because of Lidetu's pro-peace actions to be a moderate, he has attracted many TPLF supporters like me. with TPLF becoming very tyrannical, i have no reason to support them anymore. Thanks to Lidetu who showed me the light.

I think EPRDF should work closely with the moderate oposition,especialy with MEDHI...and if were Meles I would apoint briliant members of MDHIN in the EPRDF's ministers like Obama did.

True, UEDP should stick to its current mode of struggle. But we should push the government to assist genuine and pragmatic parties like UEDP. As one writer said, the ruling party has to gain a lot by widening the political space.
Forget those that advocate hate among the people of Ethiopia. They are politically dead.
Ayalew's party is truely people focussed, the Kinijt of all hues are smokescreens and defense mechanisms for derg and their likes. Chelemtegnoch!!

As I said before, I urge the EPRDF supporters to ask their party to vote for financial aid for parties such as UEDP...

what's funny about ethiopian politics also about this website is,if there is any opposition to TPLF it is enemy .this is the same way about American politics if you are muslim you are terorist...very funny

Absuolutely Lidetu and his party sholud be true to what they have been doing today. That is the only way a responsible opposition group should follow. I fell it will be a deservice to the process and the people as well to engage in any destructive enterprise of the kind birhanu and cohorts are doing now. But on the other hand the ruling party has to reciprocate to this good will of UEDP by taking actions that could give engough space to oppositions like lidetu. EPRDF should be willing to share power for parties like uedp. I am prety much sure that there are capable members in UEDP who can assume ministrial positions in the cabinet. Why not EPRDF assign capable individuals from other parties like UEDP-Medhin? I mean that would have been an astonishing achievment for this emergent demoracy.

as a EPRDF supporter, i am ashamed of meles zenawi for not giving president position for UEDF's Beyene petros and for not giving ministeral positions for UEDP-Medhin. these two parties have helped ethiopian democracy movement. the recent negative act of EPRDF on is making my party look very bad and dictatorship. i am asking if i should continue to support it or not. GIVE ME A SIGN!!!! if EPRDF continue going down in somalia, ogaden and rising inflation in drought, what is the difference betweeen EPRDF and DERG?? just the fact Tigray is not targetted by EPRDF like DERG did, will never make EPRDF more democratic. Today, the difference between EPRDF and DERG seems opposition parties. during DERG, all opposition forces were using gun and bombs. Today some opposition forces like UEDP, UEDF, UDJ, OFDM are not using guns and bombs. that is the only difference between this year and 1980
It makes me sad to see how low EPRDF has gone :(

I think EPRDF & Ato lidetu's party have to work together on the democratization & development eandovers going on in our country. Ato lidetu's part needs some credit & needs more power in the gov't.

UEDP must be given some high posts in our gov't. the time that they have passed so far prooves that they are really for the people not like the Hodams of Berhanu Nega & all their followers. therefore UEDP needs some break.

The TPLF/EPRDF's do not believe in election this is a fact which is well tested and proved. So, whether you are loyal opposition or not, the moment you start to look at the thron of that country they will dismantle your structures. Hence we have to fight and declare our freedom whatever it takes.

Both EPRDF and UEDP-MEDHIN should go to hell. The first is the master and the later is the slave. We don't need any of them. I am sure we will not see Lidetu in Ethiopian politcis after next election any more...elil...elil. The day for woyane is being counted

I used to blame the opposition for not playing by the game. Now I see it clearly that EPRDF does not respect the rule of the land also. It was a slap on the face for those of us who supported EPRDF for a long time thinking that if a decent opposition comes EPRDF will come to the middle to welcome them. Meles said this a thousand times before. But we saw what happended with Medhin party and the jailing of Birtukan. I dont see what is a good move for the future. We are cursed

EPRDF had asked for a peaceful loyal opposition but now i think that was just an excuse. more peaceful and democrat than lidetu is innocent bertukan. even the Dergist Hailu shawel said many bad things about the pardon letter last year but EPRDF chose only birtukan because EPRDF interpreted birtukan's humbleness as a weakness. that is a shame. when politicians try to be moderate and humble, if the ruling party takes advantage of them, what is the use?? i am really disappointed that i supported EPRDF for many years by blaming the opposition. i used to say diaspora are fanatics and "vocal diaspora" blah blah. EPRDF fooled all of us thinking meles is democrat who would work together with loyal opposition. how can i be fooled for so long?????????? May God help us!!

Since the begining EPRDF was trying to share power peacefully to all so- called oppositions.Even they gave a pew [big bench] instead of chairs to hold as much as possible to olf. Their response was destruction.All these oppositions are useless they will be a big obstacle to Ethiopia's development. If there is genuine opposition who want to contribute talking to third part will be noble idea .Otherwise, leave EPRDF alone. God Bless EPRDF God Bless Ethiopia.

EPRDF by its very nature doesn't accomodate any party. Its very principle is that I am the only way or my way is high way. Thefore the case of Medhin shows that EPRDF is anti-democratic by its nature.

I don’t understand why people are so mad about UEDP in general and ato Lidetu in particular? Is it because he denounces violence? Is it because he resists being a mercenary to the dictator in Asmara? I know many Shabians read topics concerning Ethiopia and write as if they were Ethiopians so as to make confusion among the Ethiopian Diaspora. I know also there are Ethiopians who have sold their soul to the dictator in Asmara. Don’t they know the dream of the dictator is to see Ethiopia disintegrate in to small chiefdoms? The dictator Isayas knows the only way to dictate Ethiopia is when it is disintegrated. A united Ethiopia is a night mare to him. Fellow Ethiopians who are against the current government in Ethiopia, where would you like to live right now, in Ethiopia or Eritrea? In Eritrea, one who opposes the dictator today is dead tomorrow. Do you see the difference?

I don`t want to fool myself that UEDP-MEDHIN is an opposition party in Ethiopia. Please ask 10 people randomly on the stree of Addis and ask the same question. Without doubt, nine or all ten people will say to you Lidetu`s party is tsedo-opposition that contributed the lion share to destroy the real opposition and people-centered parties after 2005 general election. To be frank, the only opposition party at the moment that have hidden mass popular suppiort is only `ANDINET` party. That is why the government was scared of the popularity of this party and considered it as a big threat before the coming general election and ultimately imprisoned its charismatic chairwoman, Birtukan Mideksa based on hair-splitting charges. Infact, Siye Abrha and negaso Gidada said a lot against the government morethan what Birtukan talked in Sweden. For instance, Seye has repeatedely told VOA that his imprisoment was not as such because of corruption, rather it was because of political revenge. But, the government didn`t touch him. Generally, People in Ethiopia considered Medhin Party as a treacherous and good for nothing.

Aiga,

What are you talking about?There has never been in Ethiopia real parliament or parliamentary opposition in the country`s long history.What you are talking is relevant only in situations where requirements of parliamentary democracy are met.I think it is enough for Ledetu to get 2000 birr per month as salary.In Ethiopian standard it is not simple income.Forget about his struggle.It is forgone conclusition that democracy in Ethiopia only be built up on the grave yard of EPRDF.

Kiros!!

Is there any opposition with clear party program besides hate polititians?????

Lidetu Ayalew`s party is what the weyannes need as a showcase. The weyannes should do all they can to keep this party and its invaluable services to them. Lidetu`s party should be given a good number of seats in the coming elections of 2010. This party is the other face of the TPLF and its leader Lidetu should be considered for a high post in the weyanne regime. Besides, he should be given access to the vast weyanne business empires in Ethiopa. He is one of the most loyal dogs the weyannes can have in Ethiopia. It is not easy to find such a loyal dog as Lidetu amomg the Amharas who are hostile to the weyanne regime.

if any thing lidetu successfully exposed the true intention and colour of the tplf/eprdf. i am one of those who used to believe that ethiopia is going through a democratic process and the government should be given time and the benefit of the doubt. but from the way the government is acting today against its peaceful opposition including UEDP i am convinced that the government has no room for any opposition and it wants to rule ethiopia until it runs out ammunitions.

why allways hate, UEDP has showed the other parties how towork to gether with no matter how idiological difference they might have with EPRDF,and I think they are the only party that the ethiopian people need to garner and see them become a real oppossotion, Eprdf need to open up more rooms for these party to florish, give them more media apportunties, freedom of expiresion to advicate what their vision is for ethiopia is,help them financialy like they do to their own party. To UEDP your way is working you need to stick to what you have and grow not distroy. what you have is a true oppossition stand that Ethiopia needs. don't be discourage by the few exitrem no point indivuals. keep up the good work ethiopia needs now.
Thanks

Extremism is the curse of ethiopian politics.
Without moderation from both the government and opposition parties there is no way of peaceful coexistence.

Lidetu is showing moderation and he is paying the price from both ends. The government locks and gives no due respect for Lidetu's party and on the other side the oppositions laugh on him for his moderation considering it as a sign of weakness or being a sellout.

The government should size this opportunity to give more space for moderates otherwise there is no guarantee for peace and prosperity in the country and the vicious cycle will continue indefinitely.

On a different note, the government attracts unnecessary attention by prisoning any conceivable oppositions group. Lately the prisoning of good for nothing toy girl is really comical or a real reflection of ethiopian political rigidity paving the road for zeros as heroes.

The government should seriously reflect also to make peace honestly (without the usual intrigues) with national liberation fronts as EPDRF fought on the same line. Relying on military force if not doomed to fail but for sure a complete disaster for the people and the continent. No one should expect pride as there is no honour by beggars fighting for eternity. The measuring stick of any government is how it's people live not how it is fighting.

Cheers

Forget both, they are Tom and Jerry, useless cat and mouse. Get a broom and wipe them out! We have a lot of things to have a say, why waste our time on traitor Lidetu and Mussolini Meles? aiga always kzemeduga! Ps get real!

UEDP's frustration is legitimate and understandable. UEDP's proposal to the Parliamnet-- to issue a directive for ensuring that ET Radio and TV provide balanced coverage to the ruling and opposition parties is absolutely fair and should have been accepted by EPRDF.

Instead, the governmnet's deputy Whip, Netsanet Asfaw responded "In any democratic country public media should promote a majority elected government's polices; this is what the agency has been doing". Wow!! Be the judge-- is this what NPR or PBS does? I am not sure if she is saying this out of ignorance or arrogance or both.

It is very clear that EPRDF is deliberately shrinking the political space from time to time.

You and I know that Lidetu and the so called MP oppositions are decorating our parliament and should be reward with something like a minister. Unless we do that the international community will not unravel our forged work and will not give us Aid. I wrote a book; to implant doubt about some opposition (especially kehadi Tegaru) you should post an announcement of my book on your website. Of course, at first it looks like against our Woyane, but if you really read between the lines you will understand. If you have any doubts then call Bereket he is the one who come up with this idea.

It is no use to make peace with the remnants of the children of the old Feudal leisure class hegemony, Anarchists of EPRP and, Meason, Fascist Dergiests. I don't claim to be an authority on the historical metamorphosis or the growth of the UNPD Medhin Party, I know a Leopard can't shade its spots.
What I dream is a strong brand new party with out the yeast of the past, with a visionary political manifesto or a winning political economy that could master the support of a major portion of the constituent. The other resources will be made available by the people who are drawn with the strength of idea and not by the good will of a party or a government. EPRDF is not gaining support by machine propaganda but by its political economy, fruits and achievements. If it were possible any other way CUD could have won by disseminating its mendacious propaganda campaign with out the experience and with a hidden political agenda fooling the Ethiopian people. You can't fool the Ethiopian people, they are good judges of character and achievements.

What third way are you talking about? For EPRDF there is only one way, its own way, dictatorship. Lidetu knows it, the rest of the leadership know it, why complain now?

What can EPRDF do to make UEDP people happy? May be appoint Lidetu the police Commissioner of Addis Ababa?

I have always surprised to see EPRDF members in the parlament representing thier Boss's view instead of the views of the people they represent. As long as they are incapable of making an an independet choice, voice an independet ideas...its not possible to cross over and support opposition's agenda. UEDP is the best and most civilized party in Ethiopian history even better that the EPRDF...They are young, moderate, intellegent and open minded democrats thus yes they should keep on fighting.

There is a room of cooperation between UEDP& EPRDF as far as i have seen.They have to settled their differences in a democratic way.

You are joking. He should not be expecting anything from EPRDF. He should be so lucky that he did not go to prison along side his old compatriots. He is principally responsible for the violence that happened in 2005. When he realised that EPRDF mean business, he turned back. He is also responsible for turning alot of people in the diaspora into extrimists. So my view is Lidetu and co. should come out and apologise the government for the crimes they commited i.e agitation.

Dear Aiga,

Thank you for your participatory forum though the question is helpless to the contemporary Ethiopia's politics. Because, your concern doesn't focus on the basic issues of democracy, peace and development. It's just about Lidetu.

And, you believe that Lidetu is walking through true opposition strategy. Funny, Lidetu is the most opportunist person I ever know. He is just living his life.

I got you Aiga! you are one of those who think that they have a neutral stand, but you are the opposit of Ethiopian Review.

The ruling party has nothing to do with democracy. But there will be a day that the Ethiopian people will start to work for democracy. I used to support EPRDF, but I don't think EPRDF is on the track of democracy, worst, Meles seems to become wise dictator.

You and I know that Lidetu and the so called MP oppositions are decorating our parliament and should be reward with something like a minister. Unless we do that the international community will not unravel our forged work and will not give us Aid. I wrote a book; to implant doubt about some opposition (especially kehadi Tegaru) you should post an announcement of my book on your website.

Tesfaye Gebreab,
ttgebreab@yahoo.com

I am not an extermist diaspora but still hate what the TPLF regime is doing to Teddy afro and Burtukan. Actually the TPLF is giving more ammo. to extermist diasporas by making stupid mistakes.

To Tesfaye Gebreab,

please tell us what they are trying to hide, they look very worried.

Please who in the TPLF regime does not support the loss of Assab, we would like to know and rally behind them.

cheers,

I think EPRDF should be tolerant to loyal opposition and I beleive Lidetu has learned his lessons. They should be helped as long as they keep their moderate stance.

One other thing: I have credible information that TESFAYE GEBREAB is currently in Asmara. He wrote rubbish to ignite mistrust among EPRDF and no one should take him seriously; An opportunist banda and a thief.

Dear Aig!

To my understandiing and to everyone who likes his country , Ehiopia is growing fast it its economy and educatin. Ethiopia's infrastructure is growing rapidly namely electricity, telephone, roads,schoos, clincs ,bridges,etc.etc. so Ehiopian will very soon one of the civilized country in the world. But there are politicians like " kinjit h" and all others they would like to take the advantage of this EPDRF sacrifice to develop Ethiopia as their own . So please EPDRF do not let this anti- develpment and peace organizations fool you...

Thanks aiga

Hi,Aiga!Keep up the good job.

I came recently from Ethiopia, and I was proud to be an Ethipian. My country is growing fast .

However, Democracy is not a fashion show.It is the governace of the people to the people and a system of checks and balances. All the parties in Ethipia are not true parties , they are parties for the sake parties. Look like Debebe Eshetu a former comedian and all the others " ganoch alekuna Menchetocha gan honu" kind of.

EPDRF is sacrifying everything to get peace in order to fight poverity the #one enemy of Ethipia.(do not forget famine was an example of Ethipia before EPDRF come to powere in OXFORD dictionary.)

Now Ethiopia is changing for ever. So our enemies are morethan any time againest EPDRF and Ethipias #one enemies are its own people " HODAMOCH" and " SHAEBIA" but believe it or not EPDRF shall win for ever because it is the government of the people .

VIVA EPDRF !!

In light of the primier's commendation of Medhin as a matured opponent,it is difficult for me to comment on the case before I know What Medhin wanted and did not get.Please specify the problem.By the way, I'd like to mention that UEDP-Medhin was and is the only honest and serious and the most internally democratic opposition party the country has.

Aiga, please, stop leballing others extremist before you evaluate you and your party are free of extremism. who told you and your dearly leader meles zenawi is not extremist.? my way or the high is one form of extremism and that is the stand of your dear leader and the party you follow.
please, remember no one has an idealogical monopoly in here. democracy is a process of give take and most importantly accomodation of all ideas and views so the public can have an opportunity to choose as to which direction the country shoulg go. however, your dear leader meles zenawi is not willing to accommodate any different view outside of his self centre and narrow minded views to me this is one of extremist view.
God forgive my country

Selam Aiga!

I would like to comment about the current condition.

Whey is the IMF, World Bank, EU and other countries provide Ethiopia millions and millions of dollars every year? The reason is simple:B/C they understand Ethiopian Or EPDRF is using the money properly for development of the country. This is enough to believe EPDRF. Pleas stop barking like a mad dog and you know a barking dog will never bite.

For opposition pollitcal leaders and supporters: Dont hate and try to outcast specific group of Ethiopians i will repeat ETHIOPIANS ok. and this hatred and contempt is widely established in the society - talk openly against it. For the Ruling Party Leaders and supporters: You are leading a country, you need to be reponsible, Listen why other people are opposint you. please please dont assume that people who oppose you are wrong or studpid or want to harm you.listen to them (including the armed groups.) It may not be easy but it is up to you to do that.Dont relate personal dignity with Politics.forget about what has happened and what u did in the past do what is best for the country at the moment.

TPLF makes stupid mistakes.

They went into Somalia in 2006 to get rid off the man who just elected to be president of Somalia, who now is responsible for thousands of our soldiers who died for NOTHING.

Look another big mistake - locking up Burtukan after she was pardoned. Mengistu Hailemariam was making stupid mistakes because of arrogance and shielded by his guns. The TPLF is also intoxicated by too much power. It is very sad it had to come to this.. We thought we changed for the better...

what're you talking about folks? Lidetu should get all possible support from EPRDF. Had it not be for Lidetu, EPRDF would have survived the 2005 Tsunami.

no kidding, Lidetu is no more helpful to EPRDF, Let's find another Lidetu from the Ginbot7 :))

There is nothing eprdf could do to help the anti tigray/ethiopia oppositions...These lazy goaless,aimless,foreign worshipers have nothing to offer the ethiopian people,except defaming ethiopia...

It's mind boggling the hateful oppositions and thier supports never once held a candle vigil ,when thousands of tigrays were getting masscared every day for the last 100 years by the past regimes...

Ato lidetu is a snake in the grass and number one enemy of eprdf and especially to the ethnic group tigray people...This is a guy who used to go around europe,usa and preach his hatred about tigray people to his followers...

Lets not forget his party along with bertukan and the dergists were the main inistigators to incite violance and genocide against tigray people..

Eprdf needs to stop appeasing it's enemies by halting development in tigray and undermining the beautiful tigray people ,before it's enemies pull the carpet under it's feet...

No more baby sitting the oppositions let them go to hell.And eprdf needs to focus in it's own party by keeping it clean and well organized for the future...

Long live the people of tigray who endured many years of pain,degrade,humiliation,subjecation,isolation,and many many untold henious crimes by the past regimes...

.....they(UDEP) have done what they should have done many years before....do they expect EPRDF to baby sit them?

EPRDF is the only alternative to bring Ethiopia into the right development strategy. So that no more voice for UDEP until they make perfect their policy.

Do Tigreans truly understand the pain and anguish and humiliation the rest of ethiopians feel? Can you sustain this kind of power forever...

Is it fair for the TPLF to monopolize power and rule as it wishes?

Dear Zerro Hagos and CO.,
Please take a note on your stand that you are the extreme side of the so colled diaspora elements which you are soundlt iritated against.you need to change your self before you actually point your finger on others.you and your likes are getting very agitated on hindering the process of democracy by mixing up, deliberately or not.Try to learn a lot and try to read between the lines...thanks

BREAKING NEWS: UEDP_Medhin has successfuly held its 4th convention in Addis Ababa. The party has changed its name from that of UEDP_Medhin to EDP - Ethiopian Democratic Party. Party deligates from all parts of Ethiopia were represented at the convention. A new leadership has been elected to lead the party. Detail will follow soon.

Dear Belaysew,

We all know that UEDP or medihin, EDP... name it what you like can not be accepted in Ethiopia. The ppl already understood Who Lidetu/Kihidetu ( and his private party) really is. So, i advise the dude to stop poletics and focus on his business. By the way, he is a good orator and may be more sucessful if he accept Jesus ( be a pente like Tamirat Laine) and be a preacher. So, please dont post in your other post Lidtu is elected as chairman of EDP or what you name it. We had enough of this useless dude.

My Dear Ethiopians!

Kinjit and Lidetu are like the REPUBLICANS !

You Guys living out from Ethiopia, Please keep your ass out from spoiling the new generation as you are spoiled. You did nothing, nothing nothing! to Ethiopia and I don't have any reason to say you as "Ethiopian". You 1960-1980(not birth day, but work age) generation, you spoiled Ethiopia and now you are preaching for"for Ethiopia". No one has taken any reponsiblity for the country. you rather keep you ass and live as you decided for your gut.Drom Mengist , Ahunim Mengest and negem Mengist endemitilu tesfa alegn.
