Portraying Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed as solely responsible for exacerbating tensions and manipulating conflicts for personal gain is a one-sided view of the situation. Mr. Sisay overlooks several key points and presents speculation as fact. 

Sisay , using or expressing in more words than are needed,  a one-sided view of the situation portraying Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed overlooks several key points and presents speculation as fact. 

He neglects to mention the TPLF’s role in the initial annexation and subsequent conflicts, painting them as passive victims. 

When in power for twenty seven years , the TPLF led the government and refused/ignored the request of the Wolkite-Tsegede committee organized from the region to resolve the issue. (The Amhara Wolkite-Tsegede committee appealed  innumerable times to resolve the wrongfulness of the annexation  of Wolkite-Tsegede region to the Tigray Killil).    The request fell on deaf ears of the TPLF at that time. 

And what’s more, attributing all regional tensions and grievances solely to Abiy oversimplifies past and recent historical and ethnic dynamics. Sisay’s conclusion that removing Abiy from power is the sole solution overlooks the need for broader political dialogue and reconciliation efforts involving all stakeholders.
