Ethiopian Review has learned from reliable sources that the leader of Ethiopia’s ruling tribal junta, Meles Zenawi, is ill and has not been appearing in any official activity for over a week.
According to the sources, Meles was recently in Dubai for medical treatment, but his current whereabouts are not known.
Meanwhile, members of the Tigrean People’s Liberation Front (Woyanne) are at each others throat over the decision to return the properties of tens of thousands of Eritreans who were illegally deported about 10 years ago. All of the confiscated properties, including houses, businesses, and cars, were distributed among Woyannes after they hunted down Eritreans from every city of Ethiopia, loaded them on trucks and buses, and expelled them.
Last month, the Meles regime, that had ordered the ethnic cleansing of Eritreans, decided to return their properties, causing anger among officials and rank-and-file members of Woyanne who took over most of the houses and businesses belonging to the victims.
Another issue that is currently causing friction inside the Woyanne camp is the question of who will replace Meles Zenawi after June 2010. No one has emerged as a most likely candidate yet, but names that are frequently mentioned include Arkebe Okubai, Tedros Adhanom, and Tsegay Berhe.
Meles is conspicuously silence on this matter, and is not backing any one, according to Ethiopian Review sources. If a consensus candidate doesn’t emerge, it will pave the way for him to be in charge for five more years. The justification will be to keep the party united.

God Speed! ofcourse this self-serving, divisive clique is going to have a problem in its own circle sooner or later because of the ill-advised, ill-fated dangerous decisions they have made in the past and for purposes of producing hate and condemnation towards Eritrea and Ethiopians of Eritrea origin, which inturn got them huge support from the-then gullible ethiopians. now what? woyane seems to be caught between a rock and a hard place! What goes around comes around indeed! “Beseferut Kuna Mesefer Aykerim!”

There is no eritreans property left waiting for eritreans.all of the property is consumed.
The project is not to benifit Eitreans the benifit to ivide the already confused eritreans furthur who still stick punished by the hands of shabea.
Remember this readmitting eritreans to ethiopia was told before 4 years after the war.
It is only an insane Eritrean who wish and work in Ethiopia after nowonwards.

Oh God ! our prayer is not in vain. Slowly, but surely, God will answer our prayer. Although it is cruel to wish the death of another human being, I am sure God will forgive me for that. Because we all know how many people have perished in the hands of Meles Zenawi and his woyane clique.
Death to Meles zenawi.

Legese Zenawi is a devil. He will not die. If he dies then
he comes back as a zombi. All woyanes who lead Ethiopia are

I think…
Isn’t it hearsay when a story such as this, in which otherwise would be a major breaking news, is NOT verified and comes from non-first hand parties, however be it in Ethiopia…simply hearsay?
Listen, I’m not saying this is not happening or anything and trust me when I say that Ethios and perhaps Eritreans would rejoice in some major partying here…well, I guess what I’m trying to say is…um…well, this sounds just like hearsay to me.
Having said this, if the Racist Woyane leader dies, I’ll be the first to burst open a champaign bottle and say elelelelelel!
I think, all I’m saying is that, perhaps this shoould be taken with a grain of salt even for Journalists. No offense Mr. Elias. I think you are impressive person and a man with balls, for that you’ll always have my respect but bro, this is a hearsay story, he could be out tomorrow in Addis giving a speech to that rubberstamp parlama and then what?
Just thinking…
Hope the if he dies, he’ll be buried in Eritrea in his mothers land (although Issayas may not allow it! lol!!)

“If a consensus candidate doesn’t emerge, it will pave the way for him to be in charge for five more years. The justification will be to keep the party united.”
Which party are we talking here? It is TPLF (Tigry People Liberation front) Or EPRDF, which is a TPLF Export Brand name to the rest of Ethiopia and mainly the world to make business with unfair and illegal nation and people trading?
If you are thinking EPRDF is a party or a coalition, you are making a big mistake. First we know that it is not a part but a coalition. But we also know that it is not a coalition. If it was/is a coalition how come the smallest coalition member TPLF is taking all important positions, decisions and everything the nation has under its ownership for the last 18 years EPRDF existence. AS we said before EPRDF is the TPLF brand name out of Tigry to cheat the Ethiopian people and the world.
I’m sure; we will see much chaos inside TPLF and also EPRDF in the coming 12 months. One of it could be the end of EPRDF. 90% EPRDF will say enough is enough to 10% TPLF. EPRDF disappearance will lead to the TPLF disappearance because of TPLF exists because of EPRDF.
To make it clear:
100% of the illegally and inhumanly deported Eritrean property was taken by TPLF members and their supporters. But we have to keep in mind that these bandits have sold some of the properties to the innocent Ethiopians that have no idea what was going on behind those properties. There fore some properties are right now in the hands of innocent Ethiopians after they bought it from TPLF with out knowing it was once belonged to Eritreans.

The TPLF leader is not ill according to my reliable sources. He’s hiding somewhere in the palace. He sent his inner circle thugs to USA, ASIA and Europe to diffuse and to counter offense the diaspora activists. Woyane has allocated tens of millions dollars for bribery and lobby. As you know Meles has built up his own security force accompanied by his Agazi death squads. There has been no as such Ethiopian army since 1991. Sebhat and Abay are now pretending to be leaders of the Woyane clique. Do not cheat us any more please.

The money Meles is paying to his Arab doctors while he is recuperating from his life-threatening illness should have been paid to the American doctors if he has preferred America’s physicians to Dubai’s. After all, the money he is paying to his care takers in Dubai belongs to the American tax payers who have been donating millions of dollars to his administration for almost 18 years.
First of all, why does he go to Dubai instead of to Washington where his friend George W. Bush once lived for eight years? Are there not good doctors either in America or in Ethiopia that he simply prefers going to Dubai? I’m asking here the type of questions the Prophet Elijah the Tishbite asked Ahaziah King of Israel who was seriously ill long time ago: “‘…Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going off to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?’” Therefore, “‘you will not leave the bed you are lying on. You will certainly die!’” (2nd Kings 1:3-4)
Whether Meles recovers or not, it is up to the will of God, but why does Meles wants to go to Dubai instead of to Washington? I think the presence of a large number of Ethiopians in Washington may have become a great threat for him and his family. Or may be he does not want to confront Barack Obama who has been giving him a grimace since he has become a President.
How bad to be a friendless dictator while experiencing an excruciating pain in a foreign country!
According to the Ethiopian Orthodox Church tradition, a priest or yenebsabat (soul father) must be present near to the bed of the patient of high rank; however, the Dubai Muslims may not allow a Christian priest in their soil.
We have to be fair here and must remember that Meles Seitanawi appointed Aba Paulos as the Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church because Meles at that time thought that the legitimate Patriarch was ill to run the Church affairs. In this case, Meles is very sick too, and he cannot run the Woyanne government; therefore, it is time that we must replace him by another person until we conduct the next election.

You guys,
I read all your comments; none of the comments are suspicious about weyanes’ action about Eritreans. Let me remind you. You got to remember what Weyane did to Ethiopian people when came to power. The chased out all Ethiopians from all critical position and cheated the Eritreans by putting them in all key position which they could not fill. They have pushed aside all the rest of Ethiopian people. Do not be naïve; The intention of positioning Eritreans on most of those key position were not for the benefit to Eritreans’ but to secure for their own survival; to have at least an educated supporters in the main key position. We got to suspect what they have planned beyond the return of the property. I suspect they need those Eritreans for support to stay in power, to use them again. You can be betrayed once but being betrayed twice labels you as Stupid.
