As the day draws to an end, it’s safe to say that the Ethiopian state under the admin of PM Abiy has quietly erased #Ginbot20 (May 28/1991), the date that ushered in the last political settlement, which, in 1995, reconstituted the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE).
Few things to say. This year’s May 28 comes in the backdrop of a brutal war against the major protagonist, TPLF, which coalesced a host of other rebel groups on a 4 yr political settlement between 1991-95 before the founding constitution of today’s 🇪🇹was adopted.
The process...
The process...
was imperfect & sidelined key players; & the Ethiopian state that was reconstituted thereof was haunted by the absence of these players.
But May 28 paved the way that led to the multiple nations & nationalities in Ethiopia to reimagine a new hope & a place they can call home.
