Fifteen head of states and several states delegations had conducted a fruitful meeting on how to combat terrorism at Kenyata International Convention Center in Nairobi on September 2 2014 .It is no wonder that the Ethiopia’s leader did not show up in this particular meeting. Actually it has become very difficult for the international community especially for African countries, to differentiate the current Ethiopian government from the various terrorist groups.
“…indeed the problem we are confronting is global on nature. Terrorist and organized crime syndicates operate in networks that can only be defeated through concerted action and cooperation. The African Union and its various instruments provide and mechanisms the frame work with in which we should combine our efforts and pull together our scares resources. (President Goodluck Jonathan, Nairobi) In a time when serious crimes are being committed by terrorists and radicalisms, the non-appearance of the Ethiopian current ruling party top leaders strikes a big uncertainty on the stand of the Ethiopian government when it comes to real fight against terrorist organization. Africans need to strengthen their coordination and bring stability and ensure security in the continent. Boko Haram, Al Shabaab, LRA, ISIS and others are the big threats that the African head of states were highlighting. But they had forgotten to pin point the terrorising actions of the current Ethiopian government (TPLF) to bring war and instability in Eritrea by arming, sheltering, coordinating and training rebel groups inside Ethiopia’s territory. In addition it has left unforgettable scar on the lives of civilians Ethiopians all through the 23 years of power. The Ethiopian dictator top leaders (Woyane) did not have the desire or the time to attend this crucial meeting. The absence of the Ethiopian head of state clearly indicates that the current ruling party (TPLF) wants no cooperation with the rest of African countries in fighting terrorism. It rather underscores the fact that Woyane itself is a terrorist in disguise.
The AU summit was concluded by ratifying various important issues to scale up the fight against terrorism. They reached on firm decisions to strengthen their coordination and also to maximize the budget by contributing their share for ensuring peace and security in the region. In fact they proposed creating a special fund to combat terrorist organization and Islamist militant groups. Saudi Arabia government promised to fund the AU program of fighting militant groups with 10 million US dollars.The Ethiopian government accumulates millions of dollars and sophisticated weapons from westerns and USA on the pretext of combating terrorism. However the Woyane leaders, who brag their determination on fighting terrorists in east Africa ,could not even stretch their hands and contribute very little amount of money out of the huge fund they received in the name of fighting terrorism to this mission.Of course these corrupted leaders spent all the money for full filling their private matters and fattening up their offshore bank accounts.
In short the international community is beginning to understand the dangerous game the current Ethiopian ruling party is playing in the name of Fighting Terrorism. The absence of at least one of the top Woyane leaders in this significant AU Summit, makes the other African leaders and the rest of the world to see the hidden rebellion and terrorist image of TPLF (political, economic and military dominant ethnic group for the past 23 years in Ethiopia). The Oxford dictionary defines the word Terrorism as “the unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.” If it is so, then the Ethiopian government’s actions on Gambella people, Ogadine region, Addis Ababa (the head quarter of Africa Union) and on many other cites make it a perfect match.
