What purpose does insulting the president serve? Our country will be better off if we all engage in the politics of dialogue and compromise not tarnishing each others name and mocking each other.
God Bless Ethiopia!

አህያስ ጥሩ አገልጋይ እንሥሣ ናት። ክርስቶሥ በእሱዋ ላይ ተቀምጦ ተጉዞ፣ የለ? ግርማ ወልድጊዮርጊስ ግን በሰውነተ ተክሉ እንጂ በምግባሩ ከዉሻ ወይም ከጅብ አይለይም።
ከእንግዲህ የሱ ነገር ከምለኒየሙ በኋላ ያበቃልታል። ለማንኛዉም ፎቶ አንሺውን አድንቄያለሁ።

Damn it!
This tells me to what level Elias K. has gone down. First, get the facts straight. You seem to have confused the old chap with his boss. A president has nominal power. The national power house is the prime minister. Second, he is an old man looking forward for his retirement. I think he will leave office shortly. So, he deserves a warm good bye rather than a vulgar insult. Be respectful to elders.

This shows how Ethiopians are cruel, not just to each other, but to donkeys too. Donkeys work hard to support farmers and urban dwellers earn their living and these animals should not be treated inhumanely. I don’t know if there is any other society that mistreat donkey in such a way.
… documentaries often show donkeys working in third world countries doing incredibly hard work. Many of these donkeys have a strong bond with their owners and work day in and day out. They stand patiently whilst being loaded and will follow their owner even without a lead. They also work completely unaided when work is repetitive. Once they know what to do and where to go they do it without hesitation or supervision. Donkeys are indeed remarkable creatures.
