They should thank Menghistu, who asked Numeiri to remove the head which was permanently on display then, giving him some dignity.

Emperor Yohannes was Ethiopian Emperor, so all Ethiopains should be concerned about him.
He was wounded in a war against Mahdists, Sudanese muslim army
While he was in a secluded area and being supported because of his wounds,
3 muslim passers by forced themselves into the tent where the emperor was lying and was already dying.
These muslim passers by beheaded Yohannes's head and took it to their leader, who took it to Omdurhman.
The Sudanese were looers becaue they beheaded a wounded man.
Yohannes's army roouted the dervishes and drove them back to their villages.
Yohnnes was wounded by a friendly bullet ( the bullet came from one the Ethiopian oldier)
It i aid Menelik had ent a py to kill Yohannes.
While Yohannes wa fighting the Dervishes, Menelik was sipping coffee with a delegation from The Dervishes. Menelik promised the Dervishes that he was not going to upport Yohannes with his army. Menelik refused to send soldiers when he was asked by Yohannes
Ethiopians and European see Yohannes a Hero.
The muslim who beheaded an already dying man were idiots, to say the least.
