Mali: Ministere de l’Administration Territoriale et de la Decentralisation – Communique No. 074 du Gouvernement de la Transition (02.07.2025)









The truth shall set you free, but the demonstrations on behalf of the government in Amhara region on Sunday the 29th June. That didn’t come without the regional state and government entities ordering people to the streets. The regional government was even prepared with sanctioning and fining people 500 birr to not partake in the demonstration. That’s telling of how they operate and how the Prosperity Party ensure “loyalty” and “support” in the population, by force and intimidation.
The state media has shown fantastic pictures and banners of people supporting the government measures in the Amhara region. However, that cannot be the true picture or the whole extent. When the state are ordering people to the streets and possibly fining the ones for not participating in it. That says more about the fear and intimidation, as the state doesn’t have the trust or the support of which it needs to push for these incentives.
The Prime Minister and the Federal Government are lacking support here. The Regional Government isn’t what it once was. The Amhara Region surely been hit severely by the conflict and the “operation tsunami” and other “final operations” to end Fano. A Fano that is more structured and more operational, which the ENDF struggles to finish off completely. That’s why the state needs to look popular and galvanized.
Nevertheless, the truth is more sinister and shows the heart of the state. When they have to force and make demonstrations mandatory. That isn’t a sign of strength, but of weakness. As they cannot get the people to walk on their feet and behind the banner of the state. No, they need to push them there and sanction them, if they don’t show up. That’s a telling tale… and we can all see it coming.
This is what Abiy has achieved to do and this is what his reign has produced. The “million” march and demonstrations across the region is pointless. When everyone partaking in it is forced to be there and could be fined if they didn’t show up. That’s it and everyone should know about this. Peace.











“The Minister of Territorial Administration, Limane Mahamat, has put an end to the activities of the “Citizen Movement The Time” and “Wakit-Tama, political section.” Article 2 of the decree is based on the reason of “unauthorized groups operating illegally.”” (Alwihda Info, 26.06.2025).
The junta government of President and Field Marshal Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno or “Gen. Kaka” shows their heart on this matter. No one can believe that the current regime and government cares about the will of the people or have their concerns as a priority. They are just targeting this group for a reason.
Wakit Tama has pressured the government and been a vocal voice of the people. They are the organized civil society organization, which are needed. Because it is not like the government are a representation of the people or the citizens for that matter. No, they are yes-men of Gen. Kaka and people who are benefiting from his reign. That’s who is in office and are appointed to this government.
That’s why the actions and activities of Wakit Tama or Wakit Tamma are so important. They are showing what the people wants and organize on their behalf. These people and organization are speaking out in a void. A void that the government and authorities has created with their usage of force and intimidation. That’s why they need to speak and be vocal.
The people of Chad deserve better, but this is just furthering the cause of consolidating power. The authorities and the state is just silencing anyone. When they are targeting and silencing Wakit Tama, they are doing so deliberately. This is just what the state is willing to do and wants to achieve.
Everyone should watch this and watch this space too. As this is who Gen. Kaka is and how he serves his citizens as the Head of State. Peace.
