Ethiopia: The Global Society of Tigrai Scholars (GSTS) – The Decision by United Nations Human Rights Council to Establish an International Commission of Human Rights Experts to Investigate Allegations of Violations in Ethiopia (18.12.2021)





The Democratic Party President since 2010, Norbert Mao have had a twitter tirade with netizen and general citizens on the platform. If he thinks his presence and his way of acting has built his foundation, esteem or people believing in him more by doing this. Well, his dead wrong and his capacity as a DP Party President isn’t proven better.
Mao has humiliated himself as a Presidential Candidate. However, he was in Parliament from 1996 until 2006 when he resigned from the position to become the Chairman of Gulu District. So, the former Gulu Municipality MP have been unsuccessful running the party.
The DP and the DP Block of 2021 only proves that. The Democratic Party doesn’t look like a strong party. The oldest party of the Republic should have a stronger standing. However, the DP Party President can act like everything is well. But anyone with a little common sense knows the DP party isn’t well built. If it was so… the cracks wouldn’t be up in the open.
Mao who himself wasn’t on the ticket in 2016 and gave way to Mbabazi. The man who only gained about 57,700 votes in 2021 and he even did it better in 2011 when he got about 148,000 votes. So, the man who has called other people out for losing. He has a gotten less relevant over time.
Mao only has a voice and is relevant because his on NBS Frontline as a panellist. He can trigger people and talk of exposing them. However, that doesn’t make him look the wiser. Especially, when he doesn’t unleash the intelligence or the supposed toxic documents of the persons his targeting.
The man who has been able to run the DP party for a decade should have more finesse or proof of leadership. Nevertheless, that is hard to come by. When he seen MPs leaving his party and others rather associating themselves with Alliance for National Transformation (ANT), Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) and the National Unity Platform (NUP).
If the DP Party President was so great he would have something to show for it. Neither does he has the Presidential Elections to show for it. In 2011 the DP got 12 MPs and in 2016 he got 15 MPs. While after the 2021 elections even with the massive amount new districts and possibilities for MPs, the DP party only got 9 MPs in the 11th Parliament. Therefore, just like with the Presidential Elections, the DP President got worse results and if you look at percentages of MPs it would be even more shattering. Since, the numbers of MPs has risen over the years and the DP should have gotten more and not less. However, he haven’t built it well or taken the party further.
The way things looks, the gig on NBS Frontline is more important than building the party. He needs the space to stay relevant. As well, as writing pieces in the Kampala based newspapers to look legit. While the DP Party President will bash and use his flamboyant ways online. It is not making him look the wiser. Because, the activity and the party isn’t strengthen by it. Instead, his getting questioned if his still is fit to rule as the man of the party. That should worry him.
Since, he has had the time in office and the results …. is abysmal. There is no sign of progress or development of the party. Instead, his a political landscape, which he don’t influence much, if any… and that must hurt the former Makerere Guild President. At some point of time, Mao looked promising and so was his future. He aligned himself with leaders and activists, which today is in prominent positions. People who matters and has relevant positions themselves. Some of them was part of DP for a while before leaving for greener pastures.
Mao doesn’t look smart or bright here. Just like his trying to fish to be relevant. However, that is not the outcome of acts like this. Yes, it only matter for the short cycle of 48 hours and maybe even less. As social media moves on and a new brother writes like crazy. Nevertheless, a leader of party should be better and act with some sense. That is clearly something we cannot ask or expect from Mao.
His just rolling the way he likes and think this is a winning formula. He can carry his own weight and he just needs to understand the perception he creates with it. That’s why he cannot manage to change the way people will view him from this.
So, he better step up at NBS Frontline and boost his own ego. Because, talking like a big-man is clearly not working. Maybe, it boost his fragile ego, but does Mao need more? I don’t think so. Peace.



We now see a man, who stood by, and been a loyal subject like Lord David Frost. His now the former Brexit Minister and the former chief negotiator with the European Union (EU). The member of the house of Lords, who was a part of the Brexit cause and stood by the ideals for it. A man that the PM trusted has now officially resigned. This was the project and the political reform of which both the PM and Lord Frost will be remembered for. Because, this has ushered in a new era and the stinks of it will linger on for ages.
Lord Frost who has worked with the Tories and been aligned with the framework of which the Prime Minister had set forward. Now, that seems to have been lost and he has resigned. Since, 2016 the Government has had three negotiators and three state minister’s in-charge of the Brexit. Where it has clearly failed and not delivered.
If anyone who had the portfolio or accepted these roles should be ashamed. Not that they could deliver, it was a hopeless task. Nevertheless, they took it… because they could never deliver sufficiently to the Brexiteers and neither be regarded well by the remainers. The results of which they accepted and continued negotiations are battles where the Tories cannot win. They lack of progress and proven value for money is obvious as time goes by. The Brexit is only costing, making things more hard and the pennies for independence is bonkers.
David Davis, Stephen Barclay, Dominic Raab or Olly Robbins are all part of this clusterfuck. They have during the tenure of Theresa May and Boris Johnson not succeeded. This was bound to fail anyway. However, they could have patched up on some of the hurt. These gentlemen could have worked on overtime and tried harder. However, the stipulations and policies of EU would make it hard to jade things. Unless, the UK would have some leverage in concern to the EU, which would suffice in a negotiation.
Therefore, that Lord Frost drops out of his position after a half-year and been the first secretary of state for exiting the European Union (EU), which he we’re between July 2016 to July 2018. This is a man who has been in the forefront and known the whole process.
Lord Frost has been the man who has visited, talked and discussed all matters with the EU. This is the man that both May and Johnson trusted with this. That’s why it’s striking when he ditches it all and gives up now. This is a sign that things are not going well and we knew that already. As the lack of lorries, slow exports and other damages have come into fruition as time goes on.
When a guy like this drops out. You know things are dire and it’s burning. His said to resigned because of the direction the government is going. We know things are not running smoothly. There already been a rebellion and a vote against the government stance in Parliament. The Tories aren’t united behind Johnson and Lord Frost can easily sense that.
His dropping out as the PM is suffering from the sleaze, the corruption, the mismanagement and internal in-fighting, which is eating the government alive. The Tories isn’t a well run machinery at this point. There are so many voices and no coherent strategy. That’s why things will not get better or fast.
Lord Frost sends a chilling message. The PM should listen to it. Not that he has the integrity or the heart for it. This just shows how everything is wrong and it’s not working. When even the guy who has carried the weight and done his duty for you. Resigns on his own accord. Not that I am for Brexit, but at least Lord Frost stands up for what he believed in. Even if it was foolish or ignorant of the facts of how EU operates. Since, he doesn’t get it his way or is able to negotiate what he wants.
Alas, the latest By-Election wasn’t the only defeat this week. This is the second blow and the PM soon doesn’t have any shoulders to lean on. Peace.




Our brave people;
The torrential torrent of masses in the processions of the millions of liberation of Khartoum – December 19 in the capital, determination to indoctrinate the putschists, opportunists and remnants of the former regime. A new eloquent lesson in the meanings of the popular will that robbed their legitimacy of their coup authority, on a day documented in the history of Sudan and in the pages of the glorious December revolution, to become in the present of peaceful resistance an important event on the way to overthrowing the coup and establishing a pure civil authority.
We in the Central Leadership Council of the Forces of Freedom and Change call on all the honorable people of our people from the anti-coup revolution forces, including political parties, professional and labor organizations, civil society organizations and all the rebellious masses, to actively participate in the marches of the million people to liberate Khartoum tomorrow.
Holding on to our successful weapon of peace, in order to defeat the October 25 coup and restore the civil and democratic transition under the leadership of a real civilian authority backed by the masses, and unify the various armies under the umbrella of the people’s armed forces with reforms that guarantee their professionalism, nationalism and efficiency, including the Rapid Support Forces.
And then launching a comprehensive transitional justice process that exposes crimes, does justice to the victims and ensures that they are not repeated again, and arrives at a comprehensive charter governing the relationship between civilians and the military institution during the transition and beyond. Enforcing the financial mandate over public money and the state’s control over the economy and the country’s main resources, including gold.
Our proud people;
It is necessarily known that whoever seeks to exclude and demonize political parties, and to delegitimize their existence, targets the entire civil movement in the first place. And its organizations will be eliminated one by one after spreading division among them, which is an old tactic of authoritarian regimes, and the unity of the revolution forces is now based on the participation of the widest sector of intellectuals, thinkers, creators, youth, women and formations of the Sudanese inside and outside, in a way that expands the base of the transition Democrat.
We affirm that we are facing a historic opportunity to establish a solid democratic society in which equal citizenship, rule of law, social peace and economic well-being prevail, and to end all forms of discrimination, an opportunity that we will fight side by side with our people to seize, in the processions of millions of liberation of Khartoum and the subsequent resistance activities, we will be on the covenant at the forefront of the ranks between the revolutionaries and the free revolutionaries shoulder to shoulder, until the complete victory of the will of our people, which we see approaching day after day, the will of the free peoples will inevitably go ahead.
Long live our people free and victorious

The people are a stronger people and apostasy is impossible;
Our proud people, the teacher of nations and the professional of struggle, who mastered the art of subjugating totalitarian regimes and sweeping them to perfection, and who mastered the harmonization of nonviolent resistance methods and inventing its creative tools to the point of creativity, they have become chisels implanted in the weak coup authority, and wands that inflame the appearance of the putschists and opportunists and the remnants of the former regime day after day. Glory to you and pride and all the pride in you.
In a new wave of escalating mass movements, aimed at overthrowing the brutal coup authority and establishing a pure civil authority, the streets in the capital and the provinces are preparing to embrace the processions of honorable revolutionaries and revolutionaries roaring in the earthquake of December 19th, and their immortal symbolism in the course of our victorious revolution.
We in the Sudanese Congress Party call on all the forces of the living revolution and the masses who believe in civil and democratic transformation, who are determined to complete the goals of the glorious December revolution and defend it against the apostasy of the putschists and opportunists and the remnants of the former regime.
And to the active participation in the #مليونية19ديسمبر processions, let us tighten the screws on the coup authority with our usual peace, as it is dying and taking its last breath, and the fall has become its inevitable fate, and we also warn against the tendency to suppress the processions or commit more violations, especially since the coup forces have been slipping into their positions like all totalitarian regimes, and we call on General Al-Burhan and all the military and civilian leaders of the coup to submit immediately to the will of our people. It is the source of legitimacy, the ordering and the forbidding, and this is either the preparation for uprooting by the roaring deluge of the peaceful masses.
Long live our people free and victorious.
