“Even though the question is not asked, let me advise my fathers and my elder brothers. Recently in some areas, our fathers are discussing a coup d’ etat. it will not succeed in Ethiopia. We are soldiers and we built the institutions in a way to ensure that the coup will not succeed” (…) “There was a coup in Ethiopia 50 years ago… now it will never succeed. Never. my advice for my elders and fathers is not to waste time. Do not crowd the guest house. Do not waste money from our friendly country” – Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali (04.07.2024)
After all these years of Abiy in Office. The maverick and the warlord himself has an intention behind his utterances in the House of Federation yesterday. Yes, his a serial liar and conniving individual. A man who feast of conflict and consolidation of power.
When you know that Prime Minister foster that sort of environment. That’s when you begs one simple question… who is he aiming at and what for what reason?
He cannot utter the words of a possible coup and someone planning for his downfall without having anyone in mind. There must be a plan behind it and use it for political leverage. The PM would only do this as a scheme for a crackdown in one region of the nation or to altar diplomatic relations with another one. Because you don’t just say this and have no motive.
The Head of State, the regent and Commander-in-Chief must have a reason for it. He must think of some scheme and reason to say it. If he takes it out of thin air… it is just showing how blatant he creates conflict to get rid of his enemies. If he just said it to foster insecurity and lack of trust in associates. That’s just a quagmire of delusion and possible narratives of someone who is paranoid. Therefore, we cannot know what is happening to the originator of the “medemer terror”.
Alas, that’s wherein is the problem. We don’t know where his aiming the guns this time. We don’t know what conflict he possibly wants to amplify or use the political capital against. His already at war in several of regions. His already resurrecting and misusing office to build himself a palace. Therefore, he has a need to establish supremacy and significance to his reign.
Prime Minister Abiy is in dire need of conquest and victory. The conflict of Amhara is tearing him apart. The unresolved resolutions of Tigray is still haunting him. The skirmishes and the battlefields of Oromia isn’t doing him any favours. Neither is the brewing conflict between Afar and the Somali region doing him any good either. Therefore, there is so much blood and killings, which is coming home to cause more heartache.
The Prime Minster cannot live as a King in Addis Ababa when the rest of Federal Republic is burned to ashes. That won’t sustain him or his army of drones. They will not obey command or ensure his votes in the next election. Neither is there any sort of hope or relief coming his way. The supposed reforms are tarnished and the hope for betterment is dwelling oblivion. The constant warfare is draining the economy and flushing away the productive youth. Therefore, this PM is destroying the nation, piece by piece. Just so he can be the sole custodian above it all.
That’s why you can wonder… who is he aiming at and who does he wants to get rid off? Because, if we knew that… then we would know who he was speaking of here and we could assess the possible next steps. As we know that entails, law enforcement, command posts and final operations to end the ones who is the way of the PM. Peace.
