On December 13, 2003 the #ENDF forces massacred the #Anuak people on their own lands in #Gambella, #Ethiopia. They cruelly murdered, raped, and tortured the Anuaks which was reported by the Human Rights Watch (@hrw) as “crimes against humanity under the international law.” (1/5) On September 24, 2003 the Anuak genocide team met at the @PMEthiopia, n signed an order to carry out the Anuak genocide. Here are the lists of people who were involved at the meeting n are responsible for the genocide:

1. Meles Zenawi
2. Omod Obang Olom
3. Tsegaye Beyene (2/5)

Being Nilotic (Dark skin) in #Ethiopia

Growing up in #Gambella, I have always been curious about the second-class citizen treatment the #Anuak people have always faced. We were never seen or treated equally with the rest of lighter skinned highlanders. The same thing could be 1/ said for the dark-skinned people of #Benishangul who have also faced genocide and mistreatments from the #TPLF and Derg regime. Why are the Nilotic treated differently in Ethiopia? This goes back to the Abyssinian Empire. During the reign of Emperor Haile Selassie in Ethiopia,2/

Thank you Seyoum Teshome for shining light in darkness! When a tree is very small, you can remove it using your hands without any challenges. But you are going to need something much bigger to cut down a grown big tree! Don’t wait until something becomes a national issue! 1/ It is only in #Ethiopia where refugees are allowed to leave the camps and live wherever they like, own weapons, and even getting recruited by terrorist organizations to fight the gov’t that’s taking care of them!

On June 26, about 13 #GLF members were captured in Tierkidi, 2/

She is totally right! When you have a refugee population higher than the host community, you’ll have a problem! Leave alone the fact that those refugees are armed and are collaborating with Gatluak Buom who’s the leader of #GLF terrorist group. The #GoE should understand that 1/ Gatluak Boum is not fighting for any other reasons, but to make #Gambella an independent country, which fulfills the main and long term plan of creating the “Greater Naath country”. They’re not going back to S.Sudan! Those refugees are in the same boat with the TPLF: splitting 2/

It is sad and heartbreaking indeed! Instead of disarming the #GLF soldiers who are hiding with all their weapons in Cangkwaar, 01 Kebele (Newland), and Beherbereseboch around Donbosco area, the TPLF agents running #Gambella are disarming the very people who defeated… the OLF invaders last time. Why are they only targeting the kebeles that most the Anuaks and Amhara lives? Frankly, these areas were the ones that the OLF attacked last time.I guess they’re giving their friends a good time to hide their weapons properly, and also paving the way…

Life in Gambella:

The numbers of OLF and GLF in Gambella town is concerning. What makes it very challenging is that they’re all blended in as civilians. They’re currently preparing by spying on the town, secretly smuggling and distributing weapons to their members in the city.1/ All peace loving citizens must do their duties and report any new moves. The safe haven places for the GLF terrorists in Gambella town are Beherbereseboch located around Donbosco, Newland, and Cangkwaar areas. These places are the safe haven for Gatluak Boum’s soldiers, 2/

To some people, Meles Zenawi was the “savior” who transformed Ethiopia both politically and economically! But for many Ethiopian, he was the most brutal, heartless person who led the most evil party:TPLF. With all the blood in his hand, he is probably looking up from wherever 1/5 he’s now! May his soul Rest in Hell!
I still remember hiding in a room with more than fifty people, hearing gunshots and screaming. The smoke filled the sky, and the sun hid its light. December 13, 2003 will stay in the Anuak history books as the darkest day ever 2/5

Let me be clear, I am not against refugees when I raise the issue of Gambella. I am just telling the truth: what’s going on in Gambella is not a refugee program, it’s a campaign to wipe out the local population!
Unlike Kenya, which host the largest refugee population in Africa, the refugees in Gambella have more weapons than the local police; they have both South Sudanese and Ethiopian ID cards; they work in and control the government as “Ethiopian”and also hold refugee cards from the #UN. When there is a conflict, they use their guns to kill the local
