Many #Ethiopians are shocked, confused and disappointed by the sudden release of the TPLF leaders including Sebhat Nega, the father’s of TPLF on Ethiopian’s Christmas night without any explanation of why. #Ethiopian people need some answers to this.

If their crimes were so bad they were in prison for so long, how can they all be released so quickly, in a single night, without even examining their individual cases? If they were innocent of crimes, why were they being held in the first place?

Was it for political reasons or foreign pressure? If so, why do we tolerate such a unscrupulous system?

Who was involved in this decision? Does the rule of law and a system of justice exist in Ethiopia or not?

Where is the Parliament that designated the TPLF, as ‘terrorist’ group in this sudden decision? Do they have a role to play?

I strongly urge Ethiopians to remain calm as we ask for answers to these important questions. Is this an example of political-based injustice where a due process is so easily discarded?

The greater struggle we face as a people is whether or not Ethiopia will adopt a genuine and ethical system of justice that will replace the lack of it in the past.#NoMore

Justice practiced will bring greater accountability of all parties and also eliminate unfair, politically motivated charges, convictions and imprisonment.

The sudden shock and confusion of this decision and its far-reaching consequences may actually push the case for judicial reforms, along with constitutional reform and other institutions desperately needed reforms.

But to effectively do this will require a calm,sensible,fair-minded and non-emotional approach.

May God give us wisdom, guidance and integrity as we go forward.May HE protect all our precious people and beautiful country from all enemies foreign and domestic.
Long Live Ethiopia
