ETHIOPIA: The ethically motivated forced displacement and demographic engineering in Oromia and Addis Ababa is a form of ethnic-cleansing and must immediately stop. In a country that currently holds the world record for the most number of internally displaced people (IDP), it's inhumane and counter-productive for the Ethiopian govt to conduct forced eviction and home demolition campaigns. An immediate moratorium on demolishing and forced evictions must be declared! According to local media, survivors and eyewitnesses, thousands of residents and students in the Kolfe neighborhood of Addis Ababa were attacked today by police for protesting the government's demolition of homes and the forced evictions of thousands of families in and around Addis Ababa. Just a few days ago, the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (EHRC) - ኢሰመኮ) condemned the government for these ethnically motivated discriminatory evictions and human rights violations. Pushing ethnic minorities in the Oromia region and the people of Addis Ababa into a corner will backfire on Abiy Ahmed Ali 🇪🇹 and exacerbate the unprecedented humanitarian crises in #Ethiopia. Today's unrest in the Kolfe (ኮልፌ) neighborhood of Addis Ababa is a sign. We call for an immediate eviction moratorium in and around Addis Ababa to stop the unnecessary and massive displacement of citizens.

BREAKING: Ethiopian Muslims in Addis Ababa are protesting the demolition of over 19 Mosques by the Oromia region. There has been reports of police beating protestors and using teargas. #JusticeForEthiopianMuslims #JusticeForEthiopia The demolition of Mosques currently happening around Addis Ababa, by the #Oromo Tribal government, has caused widespread shock and disbelief in #Ethiopia. Additionally, disturbing reports of the desecration of the Holy #Quran during the Mosque demolition process has added another layer of anguish to the situation. By demolishing Mosques and disrespecting the Holy Quran, Ethiopia's ruling Oromo Prosperity Party, Prime Minister Abiy and the Governor of Oromia Shimelis Abdisa have demonstrated that their narrow tribal interest supersedes the universal rights to freedom of religion. "19 Masjids have been destroyed since Ramadan."

Abiy Ahmed's latest PR stunt exploits second-gen Ethiopians. Behind the travel invitation to #Ethiopia lies a dark truth—Abiy needs your money to fund his wars! Resist being a pawn in financing a regime implicated in genocide. Your passport, Your Protest. #GenocideIsNotMyOrigin

It's deeply concerning to see the Ethiopian gov't retaliate against Orthodox Christian government employees for going to work dressed in black — during the 3 days long "Fast of Nineveh" (February 6 to 8). The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church's Holy Synod, declared the faithful to wear black for the 3 days of prayers and fast, in protest to the Ethiopian Govt's persecution of the Church. Tens of millions of Ethiopians accepted the call and wore black during these 3 days. Now, it appears the Ethiopian gov't is retaliating against government employees who participated, by banning them from work and withholding salaries. Civil servant Ms. Beletu Zeleke Mersha tells her story. #OrthodoxUnderAttack In Defense of Christians (IDC) Orthodoxy Daily News

"All skinfolk ain't kinfolk"— Profiling institutionalized ethnofascism in Shimelis Abdisa's Oromia regional state of Ethiopia. An Oromo man of the Orthodox faith is assaulted in Jimma town for wearing cloth with the Ethiopian flag and pan-African colors on it. He has been beaten and humiliated. He begs for mercy in the Afaan Oromoo language saying that he was dressed for a wedding. The last time Ethiopians faced such a persecution for their identity was during the Italian colonial invasion. This #AdwaWeek, as we honor the people's triumph over European colonization (#AdwaVictoy), let us remember that #Ethiopia is once again under threat — this time by ethnofascist radicals from within who have assumed power. Pan-Ethiopians and pan-Africans must act with a sense of urgency and with the spirit of #Adwa to put a stop to this madness. #Justice4Ethiopia #OrthodoxUnderAttack #EOTC Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (EHRC) - ኢሰመኮ In Defense of Christians (IDC) Orthodoxy Daily News Ethiopia Human Rights Council

In a world where everyone is talking and nobody is listening, there is power in standing silently in the face of tyranny and injustice. Defiant, outraged and determined! Artist Filagot Abraham (የልጅ ማኛ) spoke no words but she has a resounding message for the Abiy Ahmed Regime! #JusticeForEthiopia
