ESAT’s supporters in Toronto, Canada denounce the plot that was orchestrated by TPLF spies to assassinate Ethiopian journalist Abebe Gellaw.

From ESAT Toronto’s Support Group and Committee
Press Release
A Grand meeting with the heroic journalist, Abebe Gellaw in SeattleWe consider the attempt to terrorize and assassinate Abebe, is also an attempt of terrorizing all freedom, democracy and, justice loving Ethiopians; therefore, we not only condemn it, but we will also struggle it with full dedication. Abebe Gelaw is our hero, because he willingly gave his and his family’s freedom away to demand freedom for his colleagues in prison and for all Ethiopians imprisoned by the TPLF regime. Despite the comfort he can enjoy in North America and use his education and talent alone, Abebe dedicated his time and expertise to serve us with his coworkers in ESAT, and build an institution that becomes a voice for voiceless Ethiopians at home and in Diaspora.

Abebe’s cry for freedom was the sum of all cries of Ethiopians, who had cried for the past 21 years under TPLF’s rule, and a cry that shook Meles and TPLF from its core. In other words, Abebe’s demand for freedom in May 2012 rung the bell for the beginning of the end from the 21 year long TPLF rule, and also became an anthem for Ethiopians who are demanding freedom, justice, and equality. TPLF’s dictatorial regime that is known for its ethnic rule as well as labeling Ethiopians who demand justice, as terrorists, a regime that is known for its killings, imprisoning, and torturing Ethiopians in their mother land, has now expanded its terrorist activity to an international level and overseas in sovereign nations, to terrorize Ethiopians in the land of law and democracy. Such TPLF’s terrorizing attempts are part and parcel of similar activities that it was performing in Kenya, Sudan, Djibouti, and Uganda, where it has hunted and silenced Ethiopians who flee their country to save their lives and to avoid persecution.

We support Abebe’s bravery, and respect the demand he made for freedom. Once again we denounce the death plot against Abebe Gellaw, and support the struggle for peace, justice, and democracy. We call Ethiopians in Diaspora and in our homeland to stand together and fight the TPLF mafia regime, and occupying force that uses state resources to terrorize and intimidate Ethiopians at home and abroad who oppose it.

Down, TPLF’S Dictatorial Regime!

Long live Ethiopia and her people!
ESAT’s committee and support group in Toronto
