This video shows how Dr @AbiyAhmedAli discusses the idea of demography. This discussion was made one year before his election to the premier position. At this moment He was unknown to many in the politics of Ethiopia.
For Long OLFites and Jawarian were known to call #Amhara residents who were relocated by the Derg regime relocation program in Oromia as settlers, newcomers, and strangers.
But Dr @AbiyAhmedAli franchised this hate one step more.
Dr. Abiy said in this discussion
"We gave land to Amhara teachers and investors. We change the demography by ourselves. Then if you don't think such a gesture wouldn't change the demography? He said, "think 3 times."
A man unknown to the politics of Ethiopia was dog-whistling in this manner against the people of Amhara who are residing in the Oromia regional state either professionally or with a settlement program.
The silence and negligence he was exhibiting now were made by design & plan.
That is why our people's suffering doesn't show any sign of ceasing.
With the ascension of Dr @AbiyAhmedAli to power and with the promises made to Ethiopia, we have expected the massacre and displacement of our people would eventually lessen.
We were wrong.

The plea of a dying Amhara girl in the Wollega massacre!
========
"I won't be an #Amhara ever again" she pleaded to her killers but her plea was lost in vain.
A survivor's testimony!
"I found myself in a pile of corpses. I looked up and saw a girl (approximately 6 years old)
surrounded by six gunmen. Although I was there, they did not notice me because they considered me one of the corpses."
They talk to the baby in Amharic;
Then they all laughed until their voices echoed in the abyss.
Finally, I heard the baby say this out loud
"I will not be an Amhara ever again."
She pleaded with them.
The next thing I heard was a gunshot. All of a sudden, bullets rained down on her stunning body. They did not even seem to be satisfied with her death.
The security detail of Wollega massacre!
The massacre started early in the morning around 8:30 am local time & continued for about seven hours late in the afternoon.
During these hours no security personnel is available in the area.
Amhara residents made a life-saving call.
The perpetrators did all that they seek in that area and left to the nearest localities.
The massacre survivors indicated the security forces arrived after the OLF_Shene left the area.
Not a single individual was saved.
Recently Dr @AbiyAhmedAli claimed on national TV that
His administration is building a state-of-the-art facility for ENDF, Artificial intelligence, INSA, and the police force which can be able to respond to not only internal but international threats.
Yet for seven hours these forces were never to be seen in the Wollega massacre.
Thread!
The silent genocide against the people of #Amhara in Ethiopia

On June 9, 1991, OLF with the help of TPLF started slaughtering the people of #Amhara in Arsi at a place called #Arbagugu and #Bedeno
Since then thousands of #Amhara perished by joint forces of #TPLF & #OLF.
Bekaku Atnafu Taye made detailed research about the massacre.
Ethnic cleansing in Ethiopia
Journal of peace research by Author from Kotebe Metropolitan University in Addis Ababa researchgate.net/publication/32…
From 1991 to 2015 the following results of massacres happened across Oromia, Benishangul, and the SNNPR region of Guraferda against the people of #Amhara which were the crime amounting to ethnic cleansing and genocide. All was done by design.
It was not a curse nor was folklore.
