Hailemariam, who could hail from Asmara through his Eritrean wife, Roman Tesfai, could definitely be commended as a trained parrot of the late dictator.
Hailemariam may set an EPRDF agenda for the parliament as Roman may set the agenda for Hailemariam. When Hailemariam and Roman had their first  daughter, Ms. Roman called the baby girl Yohanna, a name Eritreans began to give in abundance to girls born around the time Shabiya [Eritrean gov’t] came to power in 1991. ‘Yohanna’ means ‘congratulations!’ In her early 20s, Yohanna for that matter is a close friend of Semhal, the first daughter of Meles Zenawi.
So, when Meles picked up Hailemariam as his deputy, Meles was not only picking up the perfect mimic from Wolaita but also someone whose private or family life is already Eritrean.

Dear Staff Reporter,
I totally agree with your assessment about Abraha Belai (the owner & editor of Ethiomedia). I wonder if Abraha Belai knows the actual meaning of “Analysis” in the context of a news piece. If he wanted to report that the new Prime Minister’s wife is Eritrean, he was supposed to take his time to gather evidence and report his finding based on the evidence. He is either too lazy to do an honest reporting job or he simply wants to score points against the Eritreans whom he obviously dislikes a lot.
Honestly speaking, even if the new Prime Minister’s wife has an Eritrean blood, what is the fuss about it. As long as Roman Tesfaye belives that she is Ethiopian and acts accordingly, who is Abraha Belai or for that matter anyone to take that away from her? Please grow up and spend your time and energy on something positive to your country or the society you live in.
I have known this Abraha Belai guy back in the early 1990s when he was the editor of Ethiopian Heralds. I don’t think he had any problem with the core believes of the TPLF back then and he was part of the propaganda machine of the TPLF up until he fell out of favor (I guess with some TPLF big wigs with Eritrean blood) and left the country. All I can say about his so called “Analysis” is that it is simply laughable and he needs to leave the learned wife of the new PM alone. We have to also leave the grieving wife and children of the former PM alone so that they can go about their life.
