    look weyane, weyane realesed him because million has begged weyane and promised weyane that he is not going to raise any negative things about weyane anymore. Instead I beleive that million has might asked weyane to work for them as he used to be, million might want to sold his mentality left over last time after he decieded to read the meles seytanawi decission life in prision sentence on kinjint leaders. shame on cadres that are selling thier mind for the sake of thier belly.

    they said it doesnt matter how long will a donkey live but end of the day it is going to be hyena’s dinner. in amharic TIWAL TIGER ENGI AHEYA YE JIB NAT…
    it doesnt matter how long weyane stays but at the end of the day all weyane members and sympetizers will face justice

    Ethiopia shall prevail!

    Remember that Judge Leul’s decision is not yet reversed by the Fegeral Supreme Court. it is only suspended until his appeal is considered by the court of appeals. there is still a chance that he will serve his time in jail if the morone judges of the supreme court reject his appeal. there is much precedent to this effect.

    Weyane is so rotten inside it has no way of curing itself to breath normally – it is so sick it has given up and turned itself to its grave – having given up it will do anything to do as much damage as it can since its nature is such that it cannot confess and be foregiven – it is a creation of lucifer.
