Wolkait Humera Tegede tigray migration began in 1971 stupi.d woyane you tigrays got no history beyond the tezeke river

Prior to the Ethiopian Revolution, Kafta Humera was the site of a government program to provide land to landless peasants from Tigray and Eritrea. By the end of 1971, some 500 farmers occupied about 7,000 square kilometers, and a further 50,000 were employed as seasonal workers. Although the program was intended for landless citizens, much of the available land had been taken by absentee landlords from the aristocracy—one estimate is as high as 55% of all grants.[1]

Kafta Humera, was selected by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development in 2003 as an area for voluntary resettlement for farmers from overpopulated areas. Along with Tsegede woreda, the other woreda selected in Tigray that year, welcomed that year a total of 7334 heads of households and 618 total family members.[2]

In August 2006, the Tekeze flooded Kafta Humera, displacing 450 households. However, subsequent visits by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs found no need for emergency services.[3] In November of that year, a wild fire near the resettlement sites in Kafta Humera destroyed approximately 10 hectares of forest.[4]

If we are free of the present rulers in Tigray,it is easy to talk about it,it is the same situation of the coming back of the Israelites from Babylon under Nehmia.They don't want to accept this.

Re: Wikipedia on Woyane settled Tigrais and Eritreans to Kafta Humera and Tegede

Here is a report that exposed TPLF how and why TPLF Seattled more than 100,000 Tigrians in Welkait and Humera.

By early 1985 relations between the two movements [TPLF and EPLF] had become mired in distrust. As the relationship deteriorated the TPLF began providing assistance to Eritrean movements hostile to the EPLF.

In June 1985 the EPLF decided to teach the TPLF a brutal lesson in power politics. The Eritreans cut the TPLF’s supply lines to the Sudan that passed through their territory. This was done at the height of one of the worst famine in modern times, denying Tigrayas access to food aid at a crucial juncture. Nothing was said publicly about the incident at the time, but it is not hard to imagine the animosity that it generated. The TPLF responded with characteristic efficiency, mobilising 100,000 peasants to [welkait and Humera] to build an alternative route through to Sudan that did not go via Eritrea.
