Video: Hailu Shawel supporters in Toronto protest

About ten supporters of the disgraced former opposition leader Hailu Shawel held a protest rally outside a hall where Dr Berhanu Nega was meeting with Ethiopians in Toronto, Canada. A bunch of dumb asses. Why don’t they protest against Woyanne thugs?

  1. These fuedal thugs have no shame to do anything to regain their previous status as M-E-A-A-D POLIT pharaos to collect money money from poor refugees to provide them with some membership cards.

    Ugly people who are redeay to trade the ethiopian people struggle for any think that will guarantee them status and money.Do not be surprised if you see them along side woyanee like any HODAM AMARA. But woyanee is by far smarter than this old style fuedalists (ye chomana ye qurt lijoch) kkkkkkkkkk

    They were losers and they demonstrated again that they are losers

  2. Dear All,

    This is a game of Woyanne. They want to devide the oppositions into many.They want to make the differences to be antagonistic.

    Therefore those who were involved in this act were Woyannes. Be smart.

    Thanks.

  3. I do not support hailu shawel, acutally I don’t like the guy. but I really don’t like calling name just because we don’t get along that is not why berhanu went jail for. We need to start working together to ward unit even if we do have differences

  4. I wonder if the motives behind is the right one,but the bunch of anti- Ethiopia anti-democracy elements would never stop the struggle of the Ethiopian Diaspora. Hailu $hawel worshpers just try to come to your senses, division based on princples is a healthy political journey,but supporting one man leadership would remaind us Mengestu’s era, $hawel’s destiny has been concluded in disaster empty eggo spieced up with corruptin killed off the dream of “the gaint” we need real national heroes not “buffas” and fear-mongers, we need courgeous leaders not traitors. we need unification for the sake of a suffering nation,what’s the point of 5+ people gathering infront of the meeting hall? shame on you !!

  5. PATHETIC! is all I can say to these bunch of feudal throwbacks and EPRP deadheads. Meles Zenawi was in New York last week and not even a peep from these idiots and no one else for that matter, and now Dr. Berhanu is in Toronto and they are out in force, all 15 of them protesting. I think it is time as Ethiopians to define who our real enemy is. I know a lot of people are angry over Dr. Berhanu’s decision not to return to Addis with the rest of the delegation, but that doesn’t make him enemy number one. He is still out there trying to fight TPLF, in his own unique way.

  6. Those of us from the inside were ashamed too, the good thing is Torontonians for sure understood who is who in the struggle for democracy.Dr Birhanu was amazing a lot of people showed up with two weeks notice it was time well spent.I hope there will be next time as soon as possible.
    DR BIRHANU THANK YOU &GOD BLESS YOU!!!!I AND MANY OTHERS DEMAND YOU COME AGAIN.

  7. Hailu Shawel and Lidetu Ayalew are the two worst enemies of Ethiopian people. The most power loving individuals on this planet. They wish to but will never get it even after the bullshit weyane junta is over thrown into dump in near future. Both are remnants of feudalistic ideology. The Ethiopian people can’t shoulder such people.

  8. You said Hailu Shawel ? A man who doesn’t really know the meaning of Democracy. We had enogh of mengistu Hailemariam. What we need now could be anybody who understand human right and democracy very well. We don’t need a king any more. Hailu doesn’t have the ability to bring democracy in Ethiopia. But Birhanu has got everything what it takes. I can’t wait to see him go back and motivate and inspire people for next election. I beleive that he can make a huge diference in Ethiopian life.

  9. Why didn’t they enter the meeting hall to challenge Dr Berhanu and others who organized the meeting? Some just find a reason to embarass us in front of the World. And they also embarassed themselves for being too few, where so many Ethiopians live. They should learn a hard lesson that people are tired of dividers. People support those who search for a common ground, even among ideological feuding entities, let alone the artificial Hailu vs Berhanu divide.

  10. decayed homeless and shameless hailu’s woshiphers will face justice at the end of the day. bishu mammo and demelash kele are a well known chikashumes of king hailu since AAPO, BUT THE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING FOR THAT POOR AMHARA. Most of them came from arusi, harar , bale , wellega, sidamo and keffa. their parents have mishandled othere ethiopians and they have paid it very dearly. these people who borned and grew in different parts of ethiopia with in non amhara’s ethiopians have mishandled otheres in the name of poor amhara. Now again they are proetesting against the wisest economist and the man principles Dr Birhanu nega , because he refused to bow his head and say ok king for power monger hailu shawul. those true ethiopians should take the lists of these bloody bandas who were in the demonstration, demelash with his wife and his children, bishu mammo, the grand children of mammo killo, and others.when weyane’s officials are in cannada , those hodams have never demonstrated against weyanes, because their boss hailu did not allow them to do so . from their demonstration , we can arrive at our conclussion that the ethiopia’s people both in side and out side [ in diaspora] say no to dictators. when six king hailu’s suporters were protested out side , there were around six hunderd geniue ethiopians in the meeting. what made me crazy from the demonstration, these hodams have had ethiopia’s flag in their hands. banda ye banda lejoch. gezeyi yagenagnenale. demelash you will never see arusi again.

  11. This is typical personality of chuvenists. They don’t have any appetite for visionries and person who has the necessary intelectual potential to lead the country. They always stick with their narrow ethnic mentality and belive that only a person with ‘neftegna’ mentality can lead that country. Although they have tried to cover up their raciest mentality by wearing Ethiopian flag, it is clear for anyone who they are and what they think.

    The former and the current “neftegnas’ have controlled the political power for more than 3000 yrs but they couldn’t suceed in bringig about real development and democracy for that unfortunate nation. So please leave the political platform for persons who have the knowledge and the potenial to lead the nation towards development and democracy.
    viva Dr. Birhanu….. we are always with you!!!

  12. we love dr brhanu this game is woyana drma please don’t give up dr brhanu ethiopan people need you you are hero of 2005 election. you are ethiopan mandela. we proud of you god pleas ethiopa

  13. Diros ke EPRP kutarawoch min yetebekal .EPRP kehulum
    ye politica enkiskasea metaged Alebet

    this is what we are expecting from bunch of EPRP losers
    and this party must be bann from all kind of political activity in and outside Ethiopia

    Down with EPRP and Down With Hailu Shawel

  14. why they need to demonistrate?.The struggle should be against the weyane regime not within our camp.No need to dwell more for 10´people.We need only to tell them not to make the movement a family matter,it is by far than that.It is the marority people of ethiopian movement.

  15. These are EPRP looser, who have no even the guts to show their protest. Dr. Berhanu is a man who works hard for, freedom, Democracy, and human rights. Ato bishu mamo, demelash mersha, and shibeshi yoseh were running all corners of Toronto, drinking whisky and bosting as freedom fighters for the past 15 years.
    They are lazy, uneducated, and misbehaved individuals, who were not able even to secure a visa for hailu shawel. YEWERE QUAT HULU…….GEDEL GBU

    VIVA BERHANU NEGA………

  16. ye ato hailu ashkeroch you did a nice job. when the weyane delegate comes to toronto you will make a very good reception with a red carpet.gengebet dedeboch.i feel sorry for your wives blindly who came out on the street to insult dr birhanu nega.kinijit for human rights and democracy be strong we will beside you

  17. Amazing Grace!

    How sad, here we just had Meles Zenawi in NY and no one dared to conduct a demonstration on him but some useless individuals had the time and energy to organize and demonstrate against our own brother Dr. Berhanu.

    This is a reflection of not only Hailu Shawl but also his handful followers are wreaked people no good for nothing

    Yeker Yebelacheu

  18. These are EPRP looser, who have no even the guts to show their face. Dr. Berhanu is a man who works hard for, freedom, Democracy, and human rights. Ato bishu mamo, demelash mersha, and shibeshi yoseh were running all corners of Toronto, drinking whiskey and boasting as freedom fighters for the past 15 years.They informed the police that, more than 300 ppl will present at the rally. What a bunch of goons.These are lazy, uneducated, and misbehaved individuals, who were not able even to secure a visa for hailu shawel. YEWERE QUAT HULU…….GEDEL GBU

    VIVA BERHANU NEGA………

  19. For most of us, this is not a surprising event at all. These guys are one family who are shareholder of this organization and some EPRP members (Wuski friends). How come someone, no matter what his income is, can afford to be drunken everyday? If go to one of Ethiopian Bars on Bloor street, you can see them everyday. They have been doing this for years in the name of oppositions. Recently, we noticed in public events some unusual behavior of the leaders, disorganized and act like crazy. The main reason for this, according to inside information, is that the income of this organization from immigrants (coming from USA and other part of the globe) and others sources (from innocent donors) drastically going down to nil.

    Don’t you think lack of unaudited money for “Kurt” and “Wuski” drive them crazy?

    Mot LeHodam.

    Tiglu Yeketlal, be a part of it.

  20. I am happy that it finally happened! It’s about time that those opposing Birhanu Nega come out and show that he need to be stopped. This is just the start, and hope to see more of it!

  21. We know them this are ball head no berain to think feirst of all they are one fuiedal amara & shabias are togetherno one even help thier poor familly back home shem on them I woonder howthey come to wardes to the people faic next time shame we are loving Dr Berihanu more than ever.

  22. By the way where is ato hailu shawel? is he still in america? is he still talking about kinijit? shame on you ato hailu. i have no words for the banch of the protesters that is orcastrated by some eprp and weyane group since this what they want about kinijit, however howcome ato hailu associated him self with these banch of loosers to dismantle kinijit. Those who protested against dr. birhanu, if they have the energy to do so, why dont they condemen the tplf regime who is killing and abusing our people everyday including the day they came out for protest. Anyway, I dont want to say nothing for them, but shame on ato hailu who had exposed kinijit to those who dont like the existing of kinijit.

  23. እኔ የሚመስለኝ የወያኔ ሰዎች እንደሚሆኑ ነው! ይህም እኛን ለመከፋፈል ታስቦ ነው! ግን አይሳካም:: ስለዚህ አርፋችሁ ተቀመጡ:: የሀይሉ አጨብጫቢዎች ከሆኑም አሳፋሪ ነው! ቢቻላችሁስ ሀይሉ ወደ አእምሮው እንዲመለስ እና ከቦዘኔው ታዬ እጅ ነጻ ለማውጣት ጥረት ብታደርጉ ለትግሉም ለሀገራችንም ጠቃሚ ነው!

  24. Ato Hailu Shawel as an elderly person must condemn this shameful protest by his supporters. Let us please put Ethiopia first. I suggest that Ato Hailu joins the Bertukan UDJP as I understand the door is open to him.

  25. kkkkkkkkkkkk,

    so these are the Hailu Shawel supporters making all these noise from Cananda!!!!

    I say, they are MUCH MUCH fewer than I expected. I knew they were minorities but did not know they were this few!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So lets count Hailu’s Diaspora supporters all together:

    – 10 in Canada
    – 10 in DC
    – 3 in LA
    – 5 in Atlanta
    – 2 in NY

    Total 30.

    This is pretty much in line with the number of attendees in some of their unfruitful “meetings”.

    Shame Shame Shame Shame Shame….. How could Hailu Shawel go down like this!!!

  26. 10 paid thugs and 30 placards. Is that to cover your faces? Shame on you. You think you know better and protesting against the Dynamic all time Democracy fighter on this earth. you people have no senses. Having a different ideology is one thing but we should be united on our aim and goal and that is fighting woyanne. After all it is Eng. Hailu who messed up everything you people are just the tails.

    The struglle will continue with so called Berkeye Ye Ethiopia Lejoch the likes of W/t Birtukan Midekessa, Dr. Berhanu, Dr. Yaquob, Dr. Hailu Araya, Ato. Muluneh Eyouel and so on we have so many.

    Shame ..Shame ..and shame on you people. You are still trying to killour fight for democracy in Ethiopia but my message to you people and the under dogs of EPRP …The candle is still lit and will brighten more soon. you will see

  27. Betam Asafariwoch yemiyaderigutin yemayawuku Hodamoch Betam yemiyasazinu ahun enezih ethiopiyawiyan yibalalu metine endezih kehone ethiopiawinet alachew malet yichalal.

  28. I think it is good those arrogant hailu’s carts protested against the well known ethiopia’s economist. Do you know why.? because HAILU think he has 1000 supportters in cannada. now we know he has 8 supporters[ from them 3 eprp, 3 tplf] the rest chikashumes who are beimg appointed by self crowned king hailu. According to CUDP’s by law, if you are away from the party more than six months , you would automatically bounce from the party . But party’s bylaw or democratic principles are un known around king hailu. HE has one shameless advisor who is working as under cocer CIA’S agent. this CIA’s agent got a mission to dismantle kinijit in diaspora by any means is from his CIA’S boss. he did it.So hailu will stay in USA untill his foreign agent tell him to go back to ethiopia, that after the formation of UDJP. MELESE promised to hailu he will give him CUDP back later through fake court appealing. I hope Almighty God will find his place in siole sooner.

  29. I think the demonstration was organised by woyane to divide the opposition and to make us bleave that Eng. Hailu is on his side. Those who were participated are known bandas who are happy to sale themselves for woyane. The point is the more you dislike Dr. Berhanu the more we love him because we know you have no brain to challange his idea except name calling. Woyanes are well organised to interfe to dismantle KINIJIT and they use some of EPRP agnet to do that. Dr. Berhanu as usual gave the most interesting talk not experinced by woyane and EPRP thugs

  30. This looks like the work of Eyasu of EPRP . I am not in any way a supporter of Berhanu. But I feel this demonstration was a disaster for Kinijit. How does a respected organization like Kinijit reache such low? I can not believe this. I am just ashamed. I hope the leadership of kinijit reviews this silly action and takes a corrective action.
    Keiyasu yetetega mingizem wedetach new

  31. while i understand where the negative sentiment comes from, I disagree with the scare tactics (captioning of the names and the venomous words) . It is this very devisive tactics that we Ethiopians need to abandon if we are to really embrace democracy. WE DON’T NEED TO DEMONIZE OUR OPONENTS. If you think that’s democracy, you are wrong. We have to learn to disagree gracefully. Think with our brains not our emotions.

  32. what is going on ? they are ok? i think they should see a doctorr , i heard mediacl is free in canada any way iam sure one of them they didn’t have any job, if they have and they are normal they shouldn’t be there. it’s shame for them and my country to see this a bunch of edite line up on out side a meeting . why the didn’t get in inside and chalenge him if they have real issue any way Dr.Birhanu remind me Dejazmach Belay Zelke and General Mengistu Neway history
    god bless Ethiopia

  33. The height of stupidiy at its zenith. Woyane is going to give them what they deserve and call prayed for. Slavery! when these swines have the audacity to call themselves Ethiopians We all are shamed as well as the Spirit of our ancestors who fought Slavery of any and all form.

  34. YOU BLOODY BANDAS, IT IS SHAME TO HAVE A HISTORICAL ETHIOPIA’S FLAG. A DOG BARKS WHERE IT GETS SOME FEREFARI.THESE HOMELESS, SHAMELESS AND JOBLESS BANDAS SHOULD BE DEPORTED BACK TO ETHIOPIA . THEY DO NOT DESERVE TO LIVE IN CANNADA WHERE THEY ARE COOPERATING WITH ANTI ETHIOPIA’S GROUP TO DESTORY ANNCIENT ETHIOPIA. GOD BLESS ETHIOPIA AND DR BERHANU NEGA. DR BIRHANU NEGA , YOU WILL BE THE LIGHT OF OVER 80M ETHIOPIANS , INCLUDING KING HAILU. HAILU BORNED IN HAILESELASE’S REPRESSIVE REGIME, WORKED WITH DERG AS AMINISTER AND NOW HE IS STRUGGLING FOR DEMOCRACY, BUT WHEN RESPECTING DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES COMES TO HIM, HE CAN ABANDON 80M ETHIOPIANS. HOW DEEPLY SHAME FOR HIS CHILDREN IN THE FUTURE. DR BIRHANU, WE ARE WITH GO A HEAD. YOU GIVE US A GIDE LINE , WE ARE READY TO PAY ANYPRICE IF NECESSARY. BECAUSE THOSE WHO ARE AFFAIRD OF PAYING THE NECESSARY SACCRIFIES, SHOULD DESERVE NEITHER DEMOCRACY NOR FREEDOM.
