Addis Abeba, January 3/2022- Hundreds of thousands of people were displaced from several kebeles in Guto Gida woreda of the East Wollega zone following days-long communal violence in November last year. In a recent development, the Oromia regional state broadcaster, Oromia Broadcasting Network (OBN) reported that over 128,000 people were displaced from the woreda by violence instigated by ‘a radical Amhara armed group’, Benishangul Gumuz People’s Liberation Movement (BPLM) and Oromo Liberation Army (OLA). Without identifying the radical Amhara group by name, OBN demonstrated the plight of the residents of the woreda whose houses were burnt down and properties were looted.

Several residents that the TV station interviewed said that they were driven out of their homes by an armed Amhara group. The residents spoke of looting and destruction of their properties by armed Amhara groups as well as members of the Benishangul Gumuz People’s Liberation Movement.

sarcasm, radical Tigre

Why are you isolating Amhara self-defense from OLF and BPLM? Is it surprising you now hearing that after decades of death and displacement helplessly that local targeted victims defending their lives and property. You wish Amhara people just die helplessly, because this the dream of radical tigres like.

OLF and BPLM have been blamed for months. But it is for the first time that the Oromia government is blaming Amhara armed group for the violence on Amhara people. Don't you think that is newsworthy?

No, it is not news worthy. What would have been news worthy is including Oromiya government itself on the list. OLF, BPLM, ODP-PP/OLF both have one target of their victim - that is Amhara. They are now taken by surprise because it is not walking to their slaughter machine like a lamb. Its defiance and self-defense for the right to life took them by surprise. Why is Drone and Defense force never gone to Wollega, but are stationed in Tigray? Because, Wollega is ODP-PP/OLF trench.
