It is GOING
to be five whole years sinceWayyaanee won all parliamentary seats, but one. The opposition condemned the election as not free and fair for that moment. But it could change nothing. It was usurpation of power under the façade of election, and no election was conducted. That TPLF strategy was endorsed for reasons by great powers can be guessed from the manner in which they reacted to the outcome. “No democracy no cooperation” of long ago was proved to be an empty promise. No wonder, initially the TPLF went for the pseudo-multiparty system with some external pressure. In addition, it was advised by a Western guru to form a dominant peasant-oriented party ignoring what was provided in the written Constitution. The advice was ACCEPTEDfor it fit the Habashaa political thinking in general, and Tigrawayi’s in particular. It is with that in mind that the 2015 May election has to be viewed. ALREADY, it is much talked about around the world by friends and enemies of the regime. It is election in a one-party system; however, it may pretend to be otherwise. That means, the result is predetermined. The complaints and lamentations by the opposition amount to what is said “much ado about nothing.” |
| TPLF'S ELECTION 2015 |
Democratic countries ACCEPTED the rule of law after struggles that costed many lives. They found some points from the ancient Greek democracy, from which they developed and adopted their SYSTEM. Greek democracy was a practice among free men of Athens and did not include foreigners, women and slaves – groups which were in majority. This trait is still reflected in Western democracy, though not so flagrantly.De jure, everyone is equal, but de facto, some are more equal than others. This is more vivid in election campaign costs, which the have-not cannot afford. Anyone who has got power by force or through election would not hate to hang on to power forever. But the West has thwarted such thought by introducing constitutions that created a check-and-balance SYSTEM through the divisions of power. The Americans went further by limiting an elected president to run only for two terms. Countries which do not have such a system remain at the mercy of the leading elites. The Ethiopian empire is yet in the pre-Magna Carta era (1215) in its political practice.It might have been after a bitter struggle that the Oromo FOUNDED theGadaa democratic system of governance. Society is divided into pre-determined five parties (gogeessa) that could stay in power for eight years to come back only after forty years with different actors on the saddle. Since the sequence is arranged GENERATIONALLY, there was no overshooting the eight years; the Office has to be evacuated immediately. To see that political tradition is honored, there is a party of previous rulers for overseeing. Three generations: Raabaa Doorii, Luba and Yuba, check the balance of power, and respect for the rule of law and tradition. In that way, ancient Oromo prevented autocratic rule. The present Oromo GENERATION has a system to fall back to and emulate, if it desires.

Wayyaanee had set up guiding rules for its own ACTIVITIES and that which it wants the world to consider as a Constitution. It is a document imposed on the people, not the vise-versa. It is written more for international recognition than to guarantee rights for peoples in the empire. According to this document, it has created a federal administrative structure. It has also created an Election Board of its own choice and the federal police. The federal police are its long arm, without limited jurisdiction and authority. It has proclaimed many oppressive laws, the most flagrant of them being the proclamation against terrorism. All organizations that oppose its Constitution are branded as terrorists. The West is shying to endorse it, probably for not yet defining terrorism based on its own democratic tradition. But, it is tacitly ACCEPTING what itsterrorist turned disciple fed it.

Any PERSON that the Wayyaanee did not like “colors of their eyes,” their walks, talks or their sneezes – any of those designated as terroristswill be subjected to assassination, disappearances, persona non grata, or imprisonment. It also commits genocide. Because it has proclaimed OLF as a “terrorist” – under that pretext, it is putting in jeopardy Oromos who are not members of that party. Wayyaanee will do anything that it thinks will make it maintain the monopoly of power forever. It will CONTINUE manufacturing terrorists as long as its international partners WANT TO use it. That is the nature of power and the unbridled powerful. It is up to the Habashaa people to keep their house in order. They are the ones who have to put a leash on their leaders. The way the empire is ruled cannot CONTINUE as it is used to be. The world is not in the 19th or in the 20th century, but in the 21st century – which is an era of advanced information technology. Foreign relations are no more in the confines of government alone, but open to world public scrutiny. This has added more vigor to the rising political consciousness of the peoples to demand for their legitimate rights.Every subjugated people want to be independent and free. To recognize this without further blood shade REQUIRESunderstanding of how serious the consequence would be. As a signatory to the UN Charter and its conventions on people’s rights, Habashaa rulers have a duty to help subjugated people anywhere to be free. When the case is of their own empire, they become more duty bound to release them if they have to CONTINUE as a legitimate partner to the world body. It is by understanding this and accepting freedom as dictates of natural law that the Oromo demand for the independence of Oromiyaa, not for fair and free election – while colonized. The election is an internal affair of Habashaa.

Several parties that have ACCEPTED Wayyaanee’s “constitution” are going to take part in the election in May 2015. There are powers that advocate for the MAINTENANCE of the STATUS quo in the NAMEof peace and stability of the region. But, there will be no peace and stability if there is intra-regional harmony. It is not something that could be imposed from outside. On the contrary, Wayyaanee’s unruly nature is helping the rise of Amaaraa extreme right wing Fascism that could create more devastation than its own. On the other hand, Oromo value Nagaaand Araaraa (Peace and Conciliation) more than anything else. There are no extremists among their nationals, but freedom lovers. Wayyaanee’scry of “terrorist!” is meant to serve as a scarecrow designed for the international community. Whether one is Waaqeffataa, Christian, Muslim or others, Oromo have the same national character and ethical standard or “safuu” when it comes to human rights – irrespective of their faith. It issafuu (taboo) to attack anyone that is not armed, and that did not come to deny them their freedom. The Oromo are not what their subjugators propagate, but are people of the highest moral principle by any standard. Therefore, all who have biases against them in the past prompted by the influence of Habashaa and cronies have to pause, inquire and reconsider their position.Whichever party wins in the election, it has to ANSWER the Oromo question for independence. That could be theWayyaanee, OTHERHabashaa groups orgaltuu, it does not matter. But by design, it is and must be Wayyaanee that wins the election; it cannot commit suicide by subjecting itself to dictates of the ballot box. All criminal codes APPLIED by international courts of justice seem to have been adopted to try it. Tempted by that, Amaaraa elites have already started inflammatory propaganda against Oromiyaa and the Southern States. They are crying about ethnic cleansing of the Amaaraa at different spots of the empire state. Clashes among national groups have been and are happening everywhere in the empire. It is Habashaa inherited policy of divide-and-rule that is the culprit; so they cannot wash their hands off the crimes for which they were the major actors in instigating. Genocides against Oromo like those in Gujii area during the Darg era, the recent massacre in Dhiddheessaa valley, and the evictions and attacks on Oromo peasants throughout Eastern Oromiyaa, are issues nobody should overlook. It is inexcusable to condone or hide suffering of the innocent for any reason. TRYING to use such events for group propaganda is also no less a crime. Habashaa Election 2015 is not of Oromo concern, except for information it imparts. The struggle for independence shall CONTINUE!
