PM Abiy Ahmed says - ''Abdi ina Iley used to keep Civilian and Political Prisoners along with Lions and Hyena in the same Cell.''

[Dalmar1]

 

In his first ever press conference as Prime Minister, which was attended by many local and international journalists, Abiy Ahmed revealed information that shocked Ethiopians to the core.

Somali regional government arrested political prisoners along with Lions and Hyena. And it was meant to be a form of torture.

“It is hard to believe. It is like a movie. Prisoners used to be kept along with Lions and Hyena,” Abiy told journalists.

 

It is to be recalled that in his last weeks in power, Abdi Illey reportedly ordered an intensified and open ethnic based attack in Somali region of Ethiopia including in the region’s capital Jijiga targeting Amhara, Oromo and even Somalis who dared to oppose his administration.

 

Dozens of Ethiopians were killed during the attack which was mainly launched by the region’s special force and Youth group organized by the deposed regional administration. More than ten churches were burned along with seven priests and thousands of residents in Jijiga and Kebri Dehar were displaced. And government was compelled to deploy members of the defense force to the region.

The regional president, Abdi Illey, is currently in custody.

Speaking about the fate of notorious Abdi, Abiy Ahmed said that legal measure will be taken although he did not spell it out if he is going to be prosecuted, and if so when that is happening. Human Rights Watch has been calling for an investigation into human rights violations and prosecution of those who perpetrated it.

Prime Minister Abiy also talked about, among many other things, alleged schism within the ruling coalition’s (EPRDF) and its political ideology. He dismissed the rumor about the division.

Regarding party ideology, the PM said, “The party has not yet changed direction as far as political ideology is concerned.” He also stated that there has been consensus within the ruling coalition Executive Committee members on all the agendas during the recent meeting (it happened this week.)

The prime minister also expressed his views that he would like people not to single out Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) as a party that is resisting the ongoing change in the country. “There are individuals who support the change and work for peace and prosperity of Ethiopians; there are also those individuals who do not support and accept the change. This is the case in all EPRDF member parties,” he added.

Dear Mr. Abey, we Somalis know that Illey was always Ethiopian state-sponsored terrorist, and his usefulness ended after he attacked your Oromo expansionists. We get it. Fadlan, stop riding the moral high horse when there are Somali mothers living without breasts on their chest because of Oromo brutality. When the fun times are over,  your friend Lema, will also see justice one day. 

Abtigiis, please pass this message to your boss.

There are more mothers and sisters who had their breast cut off by their loog foot cousins. The oromo scare tactic is little too late. 

Did you also believe the Kuwaiti ambassador daughter when she acted so superbly in the American senate hearing when she stated she was a nurse, saw Iraqi soldiers throwing babies from incubators on the floor. The truth was:

She was not in Kuwait for 6 years prior. She was in Washington DC.

She was not a nurse

The Iraq army did not do anything like that.

But Americans were so shocked wanted nuclear bomb thrown on Iraq.

 

Iley is a bad guy, but the pile on is so orchestrated and almost all manufactured white lies the result wanted is to shame, intimidate the Somali people not to ask for any territory, city or village, farm lands, grazing lands, trade routes control.

From now on any Somali asking for anything will be called Iley supporter.

It is not a scare tactic Ducale. Sure Iley and his henchmen were among the worst tyrants the Somali people had ever seen, but to call the takeover of Somali territories by Oromo mobs and the lynching of innocent Somalis a scare tactic is unhelpful to the victims.

The gallas act as if their savage leaders lemma are any better . These gallas hav4 always been habasha stooges.  And This charade is just to humiliate  Somalis.  Not that ileey is a Somali poltical rolemodel the guy has committed heinous crimes against Somalis how ever the gallas are playing a poltical game of presenting themselves as Ethiopian heroes who are liberating Ethiopians and Ethiopia.  Yarkan abtigan uhayn abtiigis need  to remain vigilant because the gallas are charlatans who think they are smart but I can see through them.

There are Soomaalis sisters, hooyooyin and ayeeyooyin without breasts on their chests in xerooyinka Dhadhaab due to Cabdi Ileey's militia's savageness. At least kuwaan weyba noolyihiin.

Illey and his crimes against his own people were well-documented, but please let us not defend the Oromo regime. Shaatiga ha iska wasakhaynina. It is not worth a cent to mashxarad for what Abey is doing to Illey. It is sad and doesn't help any Somali by any means.

It is really strange. The prime minister who managed the oppressive system is free wheeling around the globe including a visit to Zimbabwe to meet the old butcher Mengistu.

Non of the TPLF commanders of the army and the intelligence are charged with any crime , yet a Somali working for them is now the only one arrested.

This Mustafe Abtigus guy is happy with this. If Illey is guilty then bring him and try him among Somalis. Not one single Oromo commander or culprit is arrested . Lema Magrasa whose police committed crimes is free without no cloud. 

This just to humiliate Somalis. The only Kilil leaders ever arrested were always Somalis.

One side:

1. Illey is very bad

2. We Somalis cannot do anything about it ourselves

3. We don't care if you take Dirdhaba, if you control trade route, if you destroy our autonomy..Just get rid of Illey for us

4. If you Oromos do this for us we give you few tribes that used to be name Somalized Oromo or Oromized Somali you can have them all for good.

This group is made up of: Somali republic folks who are clanist, Somalilanders who are afraid of Djibouti Kililka tight alliance, Kililka victims of the past 7 years of fight with ONLF and other groups, tribes that see their future is Oromo, dumbed down or bought Somalis by the modern face book shenanigan. The strongest group here not Somalis, but Oromos like Jawar and his Qero.

Other side:

1. Illey is very bad

2. We will replace him ourselves. We are almost done, don't interrupt us.

3. Don't touch our autonomy we have paid dear life and limb to get this far, Don't postpone election in Dirdhaba (we can still win allying all others with us as you know every other Ethnic prefers Somalis than Oromo), the trade route will continue to be battle ground on Shinnile and area between Somali and Oromo..

This group is made up of: Veterans of all the wars of the past that involved Ethiopian Somalia and also wars of land disputes, Federalists from all Ethiopia and Somalis, Clans that will be excluded regardless, Ethiopians afraid the war with oil will get new fighters and the Somalis will make Ethiopia not investment attractive, Next regime change will be Djibouti unless stoped in kililka, Iley should be legaly accused only in kililka and justice done only in kililka..
