Global Civic Movement for Change in Ethiopia
PRESS RELEASE
The Ethiopian Diaspora protected its home turf by successfully foiling TPLF’s disinformation campaign to divert the attention of the people of Ethiopia from the impending uprising that is brewing against tyranny at home.
The April 9th and 10th road show of the so-called Growth and Transformation Plan of Meles Zenawi, has just ended up in a total failure. In almost all of the 13 cities the delegations were received with noisy protest rallies.
The actual meetings had a number of difficulties. There were cancellations, disruptions and interruptions. On the average, the meetings started about 2 hours late. Less than one percent of the Ethiopian Diaspora in North America attended these sham meetings. The auditoriums were not filled to their capacities. Even though it was billed as a public meeting, it turned out more like a private meeting with the apparatchiks of the Tigrai People’s Liberation Front.
Community leaders, scholars, activists and supporters of Ethiopian pro-democracy opposition forces were refused entrance to the meeting halls on account of not having an “invitation paper.” Even those who presented the “invitation letter” were refused entrance. Those who managed to get in and ask questions were verbally abused and in the case of Washington D.C and Los Angeles physically assaulted by Meles Zenawi’s thugs.
In every city security was very tight. The organizers were confrontational and nervous. Those who requested meeting orders were thrown out of the halls by hired security agents. The propaganda video that was shown contained no new information. The PowerPoint presentations were boring, contained voodoo statistics, and the presenters were incompetent to speak on the contents of the PowerPoint documents. The question and answer sessions were carefully controlled and stager-managed. The responses given were embarrassing even to the TPLF’s supporters.
Nevertheless, some individuals who got the opportunity to ask questions managed to raise the hot button political, economic and human rights issues. The rosy picture the delegates tried to paint was, of course, a direct opposite of the reality on the ground.
The amount of money spent on this propaganda tour is outrageous while millions of our people are starving. We have learned today that the price of petrol increased by 3.00 Birr just yesterday. Ethiopians are now paying 21.00 Birr for a liter of benzene causing unbearable economic hardship on the society.
The TPLF propaganda tour has backfired as the Ethiopian Diaspora is now more determined to work in unison for regime change in Ethiopia. All in all, the amazing performance of courageous Ethiopians in all the 13 cities has been Beka’s rehearsal for the Ethiopian Diaspora uprising!
Beka!Geye! Yeakel! Bass! Aloni! Diiteh! Gides! Wetandem! Enough to TPLF tyranny!
Freedom, justice, equality for the People of Ethiopia! Victory to the people of Ethiopia!

God blesse! you guys are doing A great job.
Thank you all who have been at the place to confront weyane messengers; this is what BEKA, GEYE, YEAKEL means in practice. Not only we have effectively thwarted weyane’s bravado to use Diaspora as her crunch, but we are about to say ENOUGH to weyane continuity.
This is a last call to parliamentarians and politicians who chose to work for Melese Zenawi instead of serving Ethiopia. If you will, please, you may quit the duty of serving the dictator now for the sake of the country’s future and peace. I advise the conscientious element of civil servants to resign now, and stand on the side of justice and truth. Our country is at a cross road; the choice is up to the people of Ethiopia, each is required to play decisive role in the days ahead, follow the light of your conscious.
This new movement that started in the North Africa is bound to liberate the continent of Africa from decades of servitude and bondage. The days of love affair between African tyrants and western interest is becoming out of fashion. The general consensus among the leading western politicians is to give chance democratic rule to prevail. Even though some weyane cadres continue to argue about the impossibility of Middle Eastern type of uprising in Ethiopia, that moment is fast approaching. Setting aside their argument, the days of dictatorial rule in Ethiopia need to be behind us-we can do it through the co-operation of our people.
Yesterday’s surrender of Laurent Gbagbo of Ivory Coast to his rival’s forces is a grim reminder that African dictators can no longer feel secure about their postion.According to news article he surrender come about as a result of joint French and United nations aerial bombardment of his palace. French and U.N took this measure under the guise of protecting civilains, and the need to protect civilians in the moment peaceful uprising is vitally important in our case. The activity of brutal regimes such as Melese need to be closely moniterd.I plea to Ethiopian politicians and parliamentarians-distance your selves from the dictator Melese Zenawi who is running all affairs in the country. Join your country men in the fight against dictatorship, corruption, and nepotism which is a characteristic of weyane rule.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH WEYANE. GO OUT FROM OUR BELOVED COUNTRY ETHIOPIA. YOU WEYANE EXPLOIT OUR LAND WITH AL AMUDI. WHERE IS YOUR MONEY WE KNOW VERY WELL. NO GREATR TIGRAY WITH THE EXPENSE OF ETHIOPIAN MONEY, NO BLOODSHID FOR GREATER TIGRAY WITH THE EXPENSE OF ETHIOPIAN BLOOD. LONG LIVE MAMA ETHIOPIA.
