If the killing of #HaacaaluuHundeessaa was intended to plunge the country into chaos and inter-ethnic clashes leading to bloodshed, limited success has been achieved given the lives lost and properties destroyed while the worst scenario fortunately has been aborted. 1/6
Tension, however, remains high (confrontations continue on social media) and this incident could be one of serious setbacks Dr Abiy had to face since coming to power. Consequently, vocal extremist voices on all sides trying to take center stage which is alarming 2/6
The least we need right now is a call for revenge and confrontation. It is not easy but time to pause and reflect. While all actors are responsible for their action/ inaction, the current gov’t in general & Dr Abiy in particular shoulder special duties and responsibilities. 3/6
