OLF leadership splits
ยท Nine CC members removed
ADDIS ABABA (WIC) The leadership of the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) led by
Gelasa Dilbo which has been inthe pay of the Eritrean government has split
up. Nine members of the Politbureau and the Central Committee have also
been removed from their positions.
According to informed sources, the OLF removed the nine leadership members
following a meeting it held inthe Somali capital Mogadishu from April 12 to
18.
The same sources disclosed that the OLF leadership members were expelled
after the organization's leader Gelasa Dilbo last April met and held talks
with the Eritrean leader Isayas Afeworki.
The sources also indicated that Gelasa Dilbo and Isayas Afeworki had made
an agreement with the Al-Ithad Islam fundamentalist group to fight
Ethiopia and that the nine Politbureau and Central Committee members of OLF
who had facilitated this agreement have been removed.
Those removed from their positions are:
Ato Lencho Leta, Ato Fekadu Wakjira, Ato Yohannes(Dima) Nogo, Dr.
Mustafa(Taddesse) Eba, Ato Ibas Gutema, Ato Zegeye Asfaw, Woizero Kulani
Gudina and Ato Abyiu Geleta.
It was explained by the same sources that he secretary-general of this
organization which is the pay of the Eritrean government is Gelasa Dilbo
and his deputy Abdul Fatah Abdel Musa Billyo.
It was learnt that his mercenary organization of the Eritrean government
led by Gelasa Dilbo has been spreading groundless propaganda saying that
the Eritrean invasion does not concern the Oromo people and that there was
no need to fight.
According to the sources, the main reason for OLF leadership's split up is
the anti-peace, anti-democratic and anti-people program which the
organization has been promoting from the very outset.
The sources recalled that the OLF, inthe terrorist activities it unleashed
earlier in Bedeno Ybdo, Kombolcha, Arsi and Bale zones of oromia, brutally
killed a large number of innocent citizens.
Panelists underline Ethiopia's quest for peace
by Berhanu Legesse
ADDIS ABABA - A panel discussion organized by the press and Information
Department of the Ministry of Information and Culture, was conducted here
yesterday at the Hilton Hotel pertaining to the current Ethio-Eritrean
border dispute under the theme "Ethiopia's quest for Peace."
At the panel discussion which diplomats, local newsmen, foreign media
correspondents and concerned government officials participated, diverse
issues were raised regarding the present status of the peace process,
differences in outlook between EPLF and EPRDF, the importance of democracy
for peace, differences in the economic policies the two countries pursue as
well as human rights situation in times of crisis.
One of the panelists, Ambassador Fesseha Yimer, Ethiopia's permanent
representative to the UN, said that although Ethiopia fully accepts the
proposed peace initiative and the decision of the 34th OAU summit urging
the two countries to peacefully resolve their hostilities - a position
later supported by the UN Security Council- the Eritrean government has
rejected it. Ambassador Fisseha said despite being a victim of Eritrea's
unprovoked aggression Ethiopia still quests for peace.
Though Ethiopia still accepts the resolution of the OAU and UN Security
council, the Eritrean government has resorted to prevarication and refuses
to positively respond to the proposed peace initiatives, has said.
Another panelist, Ato Dawit Yohannes, Speaker of the House of People's
Representatives, said that the political outlook pursued by the Eritrean
government and the Ethiopian government is entirely different in that the
former is undemocratic and follows a military - oriented policy, while the
latter is people-centered with the full respection of people's democratic
rights.
The only ruling party in Eritrea, EPLF, has not created alliance with any
party in that country while Ethiopia's ruling party, EPRDF, is a coalition
of parties representing different nations, nationalities and accurately
addresses the problems of the whole country, Ato Dawit noted.
Ato Dawit went on to say that despite being a victim of Eritrea's
unprovoked aggression, Ethiopia still accepts the proposed peace initiative
and abides by international humanitarian laws to deal with all issues
pertaining to the border dispute.
Still another panelist, Dr. Bruke Hailu, Assistant Professor, Political
Science and International Relations at the Addis Ababa University,
indicated the absence of any democratic tradition including press freedom
in Eritrea which, he said, is ruled by on dictatorial party that completely
contrasts to the Ethiopian case.
"The Eritrean government has a typical character of a totalitarian system
in which the public's right is totally trampled on and in which there is no
social class. Although there are different nationalities and religious
groups in Eritrea, they are underrepresented by the Eritrean government,"
said Dr. Bruke.
The Eritrean government imposes national military service contrary tot he
public interest, he said, adding the public is not allowed to exercise the
right to freedom of worship and other democratic rights.
Ato Neway Gebrab, chief Economic advisor to the Prime Minister with the
rank of minister, elaborated on his part onthe differences in economic
policy pursued by Ethiopia and Eritrea. he said Ethiopia has demanded to
use the worldwide accepted hard currency in its trade relations with
Eritrea following the latter's introduction of its own currency (Nakfa).
"However," he said, "the Eritrean government demands to use local currency
to carry out trade activities with Ethiopia inspite of policy differences
between the two countries." And difference in economic policy among
different countries normally exists and it by no means could lead to a
conflict, Ato Neway underlined.
Ethiopian students in India denounce Eritrea's invasion
ADDIS ABABA (ENA) - Ethiopian students attending higher education at three
Indian universities have condemned Eritrea's unprovoked aggression against
Ethiopia.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the students have expressed
support to Ethiopia's diplomatic efforts to resolve the crisis peacefully
and the measures being taken by the Ethiopian government to defend the
sovereignty of the country.
The students also demanded the unconditional withdrawal of the Eritrean
invading force from the Ethiopian territories and appealed to the
international community including Eritreans to put pressure on Asmara to
accept the peace initiatives proposed by the facilitators.
They also deplored Eritrea's attack on civilians and development
institutions and expressed readiness to make everything possible to ensure
the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ethiopia.
Amhara State Council concludes regular meet
BAHIR DAR (ENA) - the people of the State of Amhara are expected to play a
special role inthe effort to foil the Eritrean aggression, the seventh
regular conference of the state said.
In a statement issued at the end of the four-day conference held in Bahir
Dar town, the participants said the state is expected to make contribution
due to its proximity to the war front, the experience of the people during
the armed struggle against the Derg and the determination it displayed in
development activities undertaken.
According to the statement the experience of the people should e exploited
in efforts of defending the Eritrean aggression.
The participants commended the involvement of the Amhara people in
mobilizing militia members to the war front and contributing millions of
birr to bolster the defense effort.
The statement urged the people, specially women's associations at all
levels to continue the preparation of food provisions for the defense force.
One of the aims of the aggression by the Eritrean regime is to obstruct
development activities under way in the country, the statement added.
It urged farmers to boost production and strengthen their participation in
the extension programme.
The statement said attention must also focus on taking care of the families
of the militia members who left for the war front to join the defense force.
The conference has earmarked a 1,029,869,000 birr budget for 1991 E.C.
>From the State Press
Our people support is not limited only to material and money. they are
also ready to sacrifice their own life in order to protect the sovereignty
of their country. In this respect thousands of Militiamen all over the
country are pouring in a joining the military force, and thousands of
youngsters are being registered too.
Contrary to that, the Eritrean government in an obvious divisive effort has
begun a new funny propaganda campaign, that attempts to segregate the
Tigray people from the rest of the Ethiopian peoples. We however want to
make clear to the Eritrean government that the Ethiopian peoples are not
any body's fool and will rather fight the aggressor in unison and to the
finish.
Addis Zemen
The recent sudden invasion of the northern part of Ethiopia by the Eritrean
government has startled the Ethiopian people and the world community.
Those who know the deep-rooted relationship of the two countries could not
help being confused by the unprecedented occurrence.
The people of the world had been eagerly waiting for what the reaction of
Ethiopia would be to that invasion. The peace-loving people of Ethiopia,
who honor international law, requested the immediate withdrawal of the
Eritrean government from the occupied territories. Ethiopia invited the
aggressors for negotiation over what they claim and in the presence of a
third party. it also proposed to them they bring the case to the
international court for decision.
Ethiopia has also fully accepted the proposals made by the US and Rwandan
governments. These proposals have been endorsed by both the OAU and the
Security council to which Ethiopian again agreed to accept.
All these, however, have been totally turned down by the Eritrean
government. And in the process, they air-raided our country and massacred
a lot of civilians - school children, the young and the elderly alike.
Ethiopia has, however, been striving for the peaceful resolution of the
dispute. And it again and again urged the Eritrean leaders to come out of
the quagmire of lunacy and start thinking, and rethinking over it.
Al-Alem
Eritrea's unprovoked aggression, not only provokes Ethiopians who are at
home, but also annoyed Ethiopians who, for various reasons, are living
abroad. And thus, in addition to condemning the aggression of the Eritrean
government, they are doing whatever they can to help the sovereignty of the
country be guarded.
What is worth mentioning in connection to this is that despite their
difference in political outlooks, Ethiopians living abroad are supporting
the Ethiopian government's stand to defend the country and its peoples.
This demonstrates their full awareness of the fact that nothing is more
valuable than that of one's motherland without the territorial integrity of
which even someone cannot exercise his/her political outlook.
However, there are some political parties like the Oromo Liberation
Front(OLF) which lack far-sightedness and is contrary to the public's
positive response to the government's call in order to defend the
territorial integrity of the nation. The OLF in particular is bent on
supporting and conspiring with the aggressive act of the Eritrean
government. Being against the interest of the Oromo People who have
strong sense of patriotism, OLF, from its inception, has been bent on
vicious act of dividing the Oromo people among small clans apart from its
war-mongering stand to solve a political deference.
The Oromo People's Practical determination at present to do their level
best including their readiness to sacrifice their life to foil the
Eritrea's unprovoked aggression, shows that OLF is totally unacceptable
among the Oromo people. That is, both the Eritrean government and the OLF
are mortal enemies of the Oromo people and of the rest of the Ethiopians
alike.

Mr. Dawit Yohannes,
You are telling us WIC stands for Wild Illusions Corporation and that you
are on its leadership board. Because you and the other members of the
board have been lying both to yourself and to the rest of the world at least
for the last seven years, I doubt you you would recognise truth when you
are confronted with one. The truth here is that it is the Eritrean
government which had been on Ethiopian government's pay while the Oromo
Liberation Front was fighting against the Ethiopian state for the freedom
of the liberation of the Oromo people. Another truth is that it is in
your wild dreams that the leadership of the OLF "has split." Keep lying
to yourself, but you cannot deceive the rest of the world.

And the colonial rule continues. I am sure the Abyssnians are having

Abugeda, my good friend, who is it that told you that truth is in the
exclusive private domain of the Oromo Liberation Front? Or do you want
me to think there are some in this newsgroup who would like to see lies
about the OLF and the Oromo people unchallenged with facts? Whatever
the case may be, my friend, if you want to distinguish between facts and
fabrications, what you need to do is very simple: Go search for the truth
wherever you think it may be found, even if this leads you to the OLF
backyard. I will assure you from my experience that no identity card is
required.
Good luck!

OLF & Oromo people are NOT synonymous. OLF is a certified CRIMINAL
organization and the Oromo people are a community of people whose "member"
has a mind of his/her own and take NO order from OLF, AAPO, EPLF or TPLF.

Unless what I learned in grade school English class has failed me, I
think the proposition "and" is used when refering to two things that are
different. For example, one may say "Teka and Makobili" but it would be
meaningless to say "Teka and Teka" or "makobili and makobili."

The message is he/she who defends the CRIMINAL ( you read it correct, CRIMINAL)
OLF can NOT defend the Oromo people at large. In short, they are two
diametrically opposed entities. Just like " Teka and Mekobil". We may "speak"
SIMILAR (note that I did not say the SAME: you 'speak a diluted missionary
Wollaga Oromiffa & I speak.. Ha .Ha. well JIMMA... ) Oromiffa, among other
languages, but we will never have the same counsel to represent us. You need, if
you can find one, a CRIMINAL counsel & I need none whatsoever.

You see Mako ! ALL of you at OLF, AAPO, EPLF and TPLF are EQUALLY CRIMINALS and
you or your ilk's at OLF, AAPO, EOLF and TPLF have NO "reputations" in its
positive sense. But you ALL have "reputations" in MURDER, LOOTING, DECEIT,
CUNNING and above all HIGH on PRIDE OF PEDIGREE which is the most disgusting
quality or "reputations" of all time & place.

Hi Abu Jahal: I do not think Mako will agree with you but you are correct: OLF
and the Oromopeople are different. It goes without saying that their INTEREST &
GOAL are also DIFFERENT. Please read my response to Mako, Ya Mukaffal !
> Look up and read his statement again. BTW, did you

No. The last time I checked at CRIMINALS ( OLF & Co.) 'library', I was told that
you & Abdi did not return the "book". I was also told that you have had the
"book" since the departure of Siad Barrie. Further, even if you were to return
the "book", which I doubt it, I was informed that Gelassa Dilbo & his partners
in CRIME are the next on line. As you can see it is not easy to get the "book"
as it is out of print ( I take it the copy right is held by the missionaries who
were in Wollega). But it is OK, because we have enough 'DUMMIES' on SCEM (this
NG). I take it Mako is your (DUMMIES) leader !!

You just unwittingly revealed that your claim to be an Oromo is the
mother of all lies. Of course, as an Abyssinian and possibly as a progeny
of Nafxanya parents, you you cannot know that one of the few issues all
Oromos, regardlsess of what part of Oromia they are from,

Okay, Mr. EOM, where would you stand then if Eritrea and Ethiopia choose

Ha...Ha. Mako !! Did not I tell you in the past to check it (about me) with Hailu

What is 'EOM'? Does it stand for Ethiopian Oromo Man? I am just guessing. Where
would I stand? you asked. As always I stand ABOVE the pride of of pedigree and
oppose same wherever & whenever I see, smell or touch one.
> Would you remain an EOM or would you choose one "criminal"

As I said I do not know what an EOM is but I will NEVER 'choose' one CRIMINAL 'over
the other'. You are ALL CRIMINALS . Period. Upset Mako? I hope you puke !!

Meison to say the least. Ha Ha!! how comes you are trying to categorize

Are you trying to defame the good reputations of AAPO by simply
mariginalising it with your murderous allies.
Remember AAPO is the only political party who believes in non violent
struggle.

Well, if this definition of "sameness" to languages, I would bet there is
no single language on earth that any two persons can communicate with.

the same way when told accordingly. My dear, call it AAPO or OLF or TPLF or
EPLF if you wish, the truth of the matter is that all are the same. The form
might be 'different, but the content is a carbon copy of the other.

What "good reputations"? By whose standard and to who? It can not be to the
Amharas at large. I know for a fact that the purported "good reputations" is
NOT for Oromos, Kembatas, Hadyas, Gurages...etc ,because I am one of them.
> by simply mariginalising it with your murderous allies.
Your Excellency, I did Not "marginalize" AAPO. There is no need to. They
(AAPO's) , by their very NAME and DEED, are the best in digging their own
grave. Just for your information, I DO NOT have "murderous allies", they (the
murderers) are all in your company and I wish you a 'happy' time.

To do what? Please do not tell me AAPO is going to rule 'Ethiopia'. You would
be at least 'credible' if you were to say 'the future Amhara nation' which
excludes the rest of us (Oromo, Gurage, Hadya...). But, Sir, you are allowed to
DREAM at your convenience but not on my account.

How about your deeds as remnants of the "Afwayne" (Siad Bare)regime. The clan which
Siad Bare supported at the expense
of the other major clans in the Somali region i.e. Isse,
Gadabursi and Isaaq. How about hiding under 'Somalis' but expressing your sick
sentiment of "clan". Were you "killing ideas" at the time or an innocent soul?

'Idea' you said? Yes, as a start how about looking at issues from the point of view
of RIGHT or WRONG rather than my clan v. your clan , my ethnic origin v. your
ethnic origin, and pride of pedigree. Brother! recall what one shaba (companion)
said to Omer-b-Abdul Aziz (ra): Can he whose belly is full of stool and urine take
pride. This was uttered before he became Caliph. That is an idea my brother. BTW,
before you start "to be kind" to others, be kind to yourself by getting rid of the
hatred stored in your heart. It is hurting you more than the person you are
targeting. Come on, get out of the "clan & ethnic" enclave and teach me what is
good in you and NOT the 'Sheraton' in you. Do we have a deal????

I am not concerned what others (" readers") 'think' of me. My only concern is if I

I do not know ONLF or ONF and I have not said any thing in the past, but if I know,
I will definitely say it. I assume you are trying to write OLF and , as I stated
before, indeed they are CRIMINALS. FACT: the murder of innocent people (Gurages &
Oromos) in Limmu and Gera with DIRECT approval & INVOLVEMENT of TPLF. These are
only what I know, but there are plenty of cases in various areas. FACT: OLF &
FRANCHISES (AAPO , TPLF) are bent on dividing people along ethinic'line' and this
is the MOTHER of all CRIME. You will agree, I hope, with me that these LUNATIC
organizations are not out there to uphold TRUTH & JUSTICE, but they are driven by
greed & cupidity which, IMHO, is a fall from the status of being truly human. My
dear ! you have to oppose INJUSTICE wherever & whenever you see one being carried
against ANY people. Did I make myself clear?

Following the series of your posts under this subject clearly indicate the
level of hatred you have for the Oromo. I'm confident that they did no harm to
you and the lies you are spreading on this and other newsgroups suggest that
you hold a guilty concious that prevents from facing the reality.
But to your iternal disappointment, the 40 Million+ population of Oromia
(including Non-Oromos) are subjected to political suffocation by TPLF and its
agents for no other reason than suspecion of supporting the OLF. If you have
a majic power to tell between the Oromo and the OLF, TPLF will appreciate
your service in screening the hundreds of thousands of Oromos locked in its
prisons.
I don't know how you react but, the Oromos in the EAST, WEST, NORTH, SOUTH and
CENTRAL OROMIA anonymously say LONG LIVE OLF.
This being the fact I know, I still understand and accommodate your openions.

I do not hate ANY group of people based on their ethnic origin. Above all, I can
NOT hate Oromos even if I want to (God forbid) when I am one of them. Having
said this, I can NOT stand the smell of OLF & FRANCHISES (AAPO, TPLF or EPLF).
You see Obo Opsa, I happen to believe that mankind has one single origin, which
invalidates discrimination according to the contingencies of color, the diversity
of tongues, or arbitrary bounderies. The only thing by which human beings may be
distinguished from one another, both as individuals or communities, is the extent
to which they are doing, and perpetuating, the message of good deeds. Ethnic
loyalty can not, then, provide a sound basis for proper relations between
fellow-humans. Nor can the spurious allegiances of race (OLF,AAPO, TPLF) and
blood be the basis.
To hold the views OLF, AAPO or TPLF implies that man's interest can not rise
above those of beasts in full pursuit of gazing and mating. Rather than
stimulate the 'human' side of man, they (AAPO, OLF and TPLF) prefer to see the
'animal' side dominate. But man is, manifestly, superior to beasts. Do you, Obo
Opsa, see the logic !!!

That was an excellent reply, Udub. For your information, despite his
pretention as an equal opportunity opponent of nearly all political
organizations in the Horn, the guy is frequently seen at the
ONE ETIOPIA fund-raiser events. It is worthless to spend ones time
debating with such kind of people who are afraid to publicly spell their

The evidence is not commensurate with the scope of your allegation. So much
for the 'intelligence work' of OLF- a vacuous shell that can claim no

not go to Wollega with a humane mission and you & Co. are the 'shining example

The nature of the report, which no doubt originated from the EPRDF
propoganda machine, confirms an interesting fact. The EPRDF may have one gun
pointed toward Eritrea, but it wakes up sweating at night from a nightmare
involving an OLF mass uprising at this time. Why else would it spread such
misinformation about the OLF.
Interesting how the guilty part throws out misinformation when he feels
another front is about to open up on him.
Just recently it spread another lie in which it said 1,500 Somalis had
volunteered to fight Eritrea. The Ogaden National Liberation Front was quick
to sqash that falsehood.
No doubt a statement saying that the Afar Liberation Front members paraded
down the streets of Addis wrapping themselves in Ethiopian flags is what we
will hear next.

You are absolutely right, Malingur. I will tell you an interesting
story that shows how frightened the TPLF/EPRDF leaders have become in
recent days. Around the time the Ethio-Eritrean border conflict turned
violent, an American I have known for a long time was in Addis Ababa and he
had the chance to meet with top TPLF leaders during his stay there. Guess
what they told him. You are right, they told him that a prominent Oromo
political figure "was in Asmara conferring with Eritrean leaders." Upon
returning to the US, the guy calls me and tells me this interesting news.
I cannot tell you how angry he was when he found out for himself that the
person who was supposed to be in Asmara was in fact thousands of miles
away from the African continent. I was pleased by his anger because it
meant there would be one less American the TPLF leaders can fool in the
future.

I dont think they believe in non-violent struggle. It is only that
they are not capable
of raising their hands anymore, thanks to TPLF's "forgivable" (according
to some authors) humiliation and harasment for the last seven years.
We are going to see
if they rather prefer to serve TPLF.

To live as a second citizen peacefully? Note that
there is a
difference between struggle for freedom and peaceful struggle
for power. If your peaceful struggle works after along time,
the leader Dr. Beyene Petros might replace Dr. Negasso Gidada.
It will, however, bring nothing to the people of Hadiya.
