Hailese Selassie had no more than 20 prisons and police precincts in Eritrea, while Issaias Afeworki has increased this to 271 prisons, dungeons and concentration camps.
Show me the industries and factories built by Issaias Afeworki, here are some of Eritrea's best business enterprises in 1972 under Emperor Haile Selassie.
Was Asmara more civilized in 1972 than now in 2024 under Issaias Afeworki? This is a puzzle many of us, Eritreans, have now?
Just watch the video of the Asmara Expo 1972, and compare it with the docile and clumsy yearly so called "Eritrean Festival" of 2024 ?
