Breaking News – The Ethiopian Government Jams the Satellite Transmission of the Oromia Media Network (OMN)

Gadaa.com
————
THE SATELLITE TRANSMISSION OF OROMIA MEDIA NETWORK (OMN) HAS BEEN JAMMED
We have learned that our regular transmission on ArabSat has been interrupted as of 04:38:00 GMT this morning. This is following the blocking of our website www.OromiaMedia.org since May 2, 2014 in Ethiopia. It is worth noting that the Ethiopian government is notorious in blocking and jamming alternative media outlets, and violently silencing critical journalists.
The OMN Satellite TV broadcast, the first of it’s kind serving the Oromo people and their neighborhood, has been airing original contents produced under strict guidance of journalistic ethics.
We would like to reassure our audience that OMN will be back on air very soon. Our staff and management are working hard to find a solution for this blockage. In the meantime we kindly ask our audience to be patient with us and follow our transmissions on social media via YouTube and Facebook as we will continue to produce reports and original programs uninterrupted. Finally , we call up on our audience to renew their resolve to sustain the OMN initiative.
Girma Tadesse,
Executive Director

Ibsa ejjennoo Amantii Waaqeffannaa, Norway: Barattoota motummaan Tophiyyaa biyyatti miidhaa irraan gahe laalchisee ibsa ejjennoo | Waqeffanna Oromo Religion in Norway: Press release regarding the killing of Oromo students in Oromia – Ethiopia

Waqeffanna Oromo Religion in Norway: Press release regarding the killing of Oromo students in Oromia – Ethiopia

We are saddened by the news of killings of students in Oromia, Ethiopia. The students protested peacefully against the master plan of Finfinne /Addis Ababa/ due to  the government’s plan to include the farms around Finfinne in the city plan and sell the land as usual.
We have learnt that the farmers around Finfinne have lost their farm land by the name of foreign investment. Their land is given to investors and sold as a plot for building houses. The farmers became the daily labourers on their own land and many of them left their indigenous land.
This has made the farmers servants on their own land. Waqa (God) has not created anyone as master and  servants. We are all equal in front of Waqa.
The students who protested this are being killed by Agazi soldiers and police of Ethiopian government. We watched videos of merciless killings of young students and people on the streets of Ambo, Robe, Nekemt, Dembi Dollo, etc. and the rest of the country. Above all, the Ethiopian government act irresponsibly and didn’t allow the family to collect the dead body of their children. Those who injured are not allowed to get medical attention as punishment. This shows the brutality of Ethiopian government.
The killing of students is not acceptable by any human standards. We call upon our members to stand hand in hand with their brothers and sisters and give them the necessary support. We call upon international community, UN, EU and USA and international religious organizations to condemn the act of Ethiopian government and bring the killers who commit this criminal act to justice.
We also call upon humanitarian organizations to be aware of the situation and give the necessary assistance to save the lives of the injured and displaced ones.

Ethiopia: Ambo under Siege, Daily Activities Paralyzed

HRLHA Urgent ActionHRLHA Fine
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
13 May, 2014.
The brutal attempts of crackdown against Oromo protesters by the Agazi Special Squad continuing unabated in different parts of the regional state of Oromia, reports coming from Ambo in central Oromia indicate that the town and its surrounding has come under virtual seizure by the Agazi Federal Armed Force, daily movements and activities becoming almost impossible.
According to information obtained by HRLHA (this morning) form its correspondents, the Agazi Special Squad has been deployed in Ambo Town and its surrounding in much larger number than before and engaged in indiscriminately kidnapping the local people from along the streets and throwing them into detention centres in the area. There are also reports of widespread rapes being committed against female detainees.
Although the protests against the plan to annex some central small towns of Oromia into the Capital Addis Ababa/Finfinne have been involving Oromos from all walks of life, age and gender, the prime targets have been the youth, university, college, and high school students in particular. Since the protest started in different parts of the regional state of Oromia two weeks ago, more than 50,000 (fifty thousand) Oromos have been arrested and detained from Ambo, Gudar, Tikur Inchini, Ginda-Barat, Gedo, and Bakko-Tibe towns in West Showa Zone of Central Oromia alone, Apart from along the streets in cities and towns, especially students are being picked up even from dormitories and classrooms on universities and college campuses. Reports add that there have been around twenty(40) extra-judicial killings so far that have resulted from brutal actions against unarmed and peaceful protesters by armed forces.
Ever since the violence against Oromo protesters started two weeks ago, and following the release of its first urgent action over the incidents, the Human Rights League of the Horn of Africa (HRLHA) has been monitoring the situation through its correspondents in the region; and has been able to obtain some of the names of the Oromos (students and others) who have so far been killed, kidnapped or arrested, and detained or disappeared. There are also cases of beatings and wounds or injuries inflicted on some of the protesters by the heavy-handed federal armed force. The names are listed below:

HRLHA calls up on the Ethiopian Government to:
  1. Immediately stop the racial and discriminatory violence against Oromos, and bring the culprits  toJustice
  2.  Unconditionally release the detained Oromo students and facilitate the resumption of normal classes;
  3. Reverse the decision of the plan and present it for discussion and consultations to the concerned Oromo People, and obtain their consents;
  4. Compensate all loses and damages that resulted from the brutal actions of its armed forces.
HRLHA also calls up on regional and international diplomatic, democratic, and human rights agencies to challenge the Ethiopian TPLF/EPRDF government on its persistent brutal, dictatorial, and suppressive actions against innocent and unarmed civilians who are attempting to exercise some of their “said-to-have-been-granted” democratic rights.
