EDITOR’S NOTE: All these explosions are being orchestrated by Woyanne. The speed with which suspects are rounded up is just one indication.

ADDIS ABABA (AFP) — Ethiopian Woyanne police said Thursday they had arrested suspects linked to this week’s hotel bomb blasts that killed three people in the south of the country.
“So far, we have captured a few suspects but the case is still under investigation,” said Terefe Disassa, deputy police inspector for the town of Negelle Borena where two bombs exploded in two hotels late Tuesday.
“We are pretty much in the preliminary stages of the investigation at the moment,” he added.
Negelle Borena is a small town located 595 kilometres (320 miles) south of the capital Addis Ababa, in the Oromo region, where rebels have fought for years over claims of marginalisation by the government.
No group has yet claimed responsibility.
The twin bomb attack came on 17th anniversary of former president Mengistu Haile Mariam’s ouster.
On May 20, a bomb went off on a minibus near the foreign ministry in Addis Ababa, killing six people, including a US national.
The authorities, who made several arrests, blamed last week’s explosion on Eritrea and the Oromo Liberation Front. They announced making arrests but did not specify the number of arrests.
Three people were also killed and 18 wounded in bomb blasts at petrol stations in Addis Ababa on April 14.

TPLF gangs blame Oromos and Eritrea, whereas Somali elements claim the responsibility. TPLF bias and hate against Oromos have no limit whatsoever.

Mr Editor, Can you sometimes be reasonable. Don’t put the blame for every evil thing on the woyannes. Are the woyannes behind the rise of the oil prices in the world too?
Try to use yor common senses. Don’t forget your readers are matured people.

Elias;
You are good at throwing every thing on Woyane. But this time, the story that followed had proven you WRONG. The very news of you have confirmed that the Somali Islamists, who implanted the bomb, have taken the responsibility. What do you think? Embarrassed?

Woyannes, phony claims, quick investigative press releases, by assassins, named Mr. Demsash, Zemedkun et al are shear propoganda to eradicate, those they don’t like. Unfortunately, people of Oromo ethenic origin are easy targets of these pathological criminals, which are easy to butcher. Henceforth, this is evident clear as daylight. Woyannes contemt for every Oromo has manifested in the wide campaigns of terror they;ve unleashed on Oromos and likes. We, all peace loving people denounce such ugliest form of xenophobia, Amahar-phobia, Gurageh-phobia, sidama-phobia, anuak-phobia in strongest terms.
Shame on Tyrant regime of Thugere terrorists who are looting innocent Ethiopian citizens under false, destorted pretexts.
Shame on tigaru terror lords.
