The current TPLF led authoritarian Ethiopian regime is doing what exactly the Derg's regime has on its final phase done by obliging students of higher institutions to be coerced into doing totally and utterly irrelevant trainings. The predecessor of the current has vanished immediately after it has taken such illogical actions, yet the current is hanging onto power adopting different tactics as it has recruited fake representatives from various nations of the country under the pretexts of representations which hasn’t existed in the past 23 years.
Such action of the current TPLF's regime which chose to stay in power by terrorising and intimidating the subjects is simply ideological fornication and moral manipulation of future generation of the country; both actions potentially depriving the subjects' ability to maximise his/her potential to be an independent and free thinker with potential to be inventor and pioneer; ultimately good humane with sense of balanced judgements and social responsibilities. The coerced trainings of the students of higher institution by the current regime is a poisonous cocktail for the forward looking, tender brained youth of the country which potentially subjects them to be simple instruments of the system who don’t have minds of their own-if they became the subjects of such manipulations.
Whether this is actually TPLF’s final phase but it is undoubtedly the tale-tale sign that the regime doesn’t comfortably stay on power for long time. It is a matter of time for this rotten regime to be dismantled from its very foundation with its filthy apparatuses. The question is whether an effective alliances could be forged between the oppressed various nations of the Empire to facilitate its inevitably final demise. Doing so isn’t impossible but challenging and demands a lot of dedicated work towards this end.
If any regime of given country does socially responsible activities; its subjects can negotiate their ways through by accommodating concerned leaders. If peoples’ needs are partially satisfied, peoples naturally accommodate any governmental authorities. However, if the peoples of given country are coerced into accepting something politically incorrect, logically and morally unacceptable for variety of reasons-and more essentially people are denied basic necessities; only force and military might don't resolve the underlying causes created by a political mismanagement of the system itself. History time and again affirms this.
In particular if the regime on power has got a constitution which states the rights and obligations of citizens in black and white; yet ignores respecting these by choosing to rather enforce its blockage by literally terrorising those who demand for it; doing so technically if there were an independent judiciary systems and the rule of law, such a regime could be automatically regarded as unlawful or illegal. Thus, such regime can’t survive for so long whatever the force the regime might adopt to silence its subjects.
The current TPLF dominated regime uses such constitution to stifle freedom of expression, assembly and association other than its own party. The various nations’ peoples of the empire are massacred, harassed, displaced from their lands, continually terrorised and made to feel utterly powerless by the actions of this very regime during its last 23 years tenure. This regime has got a constitution unequivocally guaranteeing various nations of the empire to unrestricted rights to self-governance, freedom of expression and assembly; in practice not only denies practicing these all rights but also for the first time it has amalgamated 56 nations of the south Ethiopia into a pressure cooker with the aim of expropriating their rich resources; fully ditching the concept of its Ethnic federalism into deeper ocean.
The current coerced trainings of higher institutions students seems to be the final gasp of the regime to stay on power by recruiting fresh bloods to its filthy and undemocratic establishments. Whether it works for this morally bankrupt, politically inapt and socially unjustifiable regime whose leaders and messengers defiantly massacre and terrorise citizens with impunity, will time tells. Besides, the regime has indeed coerced the students into such hitherto unknown kind of coerced, sexed up political ideology trainings with pure aim of brainwashing the future generation of the country to make them the puppets of extremely bankrupt regime whose legitimacy has been significantly diminished.
As we all saw what the current regime has done to individual and the whole peoples of the country, what kind of futurity do we expected if these new generations are bewitched into accepting the poisonous agendas inoculated by the TPLF’s regime with undemocratic, criminal, repressive and morally corrupt ideologies?
What is the reason for keeping their thread on? Why the regime whose credibility has gone to zero is allowed to continually dehumanise and depersonalise us all under various pretexts? Can we all afford a kind of systematic slavery, deliberately induced poverty, imprisonments of 100,000s of innocent civilians who have done nothing other than demanding their fundamental rights written in the constitution of this very regime? I would leave the reader to ponder with the following questions.
Can we see the way out of such mess in short period of time? If yes how? And if not why?
