Addis Ababa is {www:abuzz} with rumor that Samuel Tafesse, construction mogul and the multimillionaire business partners of Meles Zenawi’s wife Azeb Mesfin, has been arrested in Ethiopia. The rumor started when he disappeared for several days starting early this month and his colleagues began to ask questions.
After transferring the day-to-day operations of his company to his deputy Yitbarek Getahun in February, Samuel quietly came to the U.S. where he recently {www:confided} to his friends that Azeb — who is commonly known us “the mother of corruption” — is giving him a hard time and that he might close every thing down in Ethiopia and move to the U.S.
Samuel recently finished building a $5 million house for himself in Alexandria, Virginia, a suburb of Washington DC.
The reason he is having troubles with the {www:ravenous} Azeb Mesfin is not clear, but Samuel is not the only business partner of Azeb Mesfin who is facing hard times. Almost every major business in Ethiopia, from flower export to real estate, must make Azeb a partner in order to have any chance of making profit. One of these businessmen who have fallen hard times recently is founder of Zemen Bank, Ermias Amelga who has been forced out of the bank’s chairmanship for an unknown reason, as reported here.

Fact finder!!!,
Please let us know what researches you’ve done and your findings on Meles, Azeb and their TPLF thugs. As they say: What’s good for the goose it’s good for the gender” You cannot deny that The brutal TPLF regime have done unimaginable looting and other crimes than hundreds of Samuels out there.
I wonder these days the “SHEKI” sound of the billioner Al alamudin is also out of media she might expelled him form the business.
My fellow Ethiopians,
Always question the motives of people like the so called “fact finder !!!” that claimed of doing research on other Ethiopians and at the same time completely ignores and disregard the horrendous crimes and the tremendous amount of lootings of Meles, Azeb and their gang-bangers. People like “Fact finder!!!” are snake in the grass who go around to validate and confirm the charges barracuda Azeb brought against Samuel in order to rob Samuel. Please don’t get me wrong that I care for looters like Samuel, but there is no way in hell that Samuel is more dangerous than Azeb, Meles and Co..
“Fact finder!!!” I’m still waiting to find out from you the kinds of researches you have done on Meles, Azeb and members of TPLF’s lootings for the last 20 years and the various saving accounts they’ve opened in foreign countries.

Let me know when you take a picture though so I can smile. It sucks to be broke or not know a rich guy to get invited. You will get there one day when your uncle takes power, that is if you are alive by then.

To Fact Finder,
As you know, information is the key to everything. Information is POWER.
With information, we do not need opinions, with information the individual can form their OWN opinions and judgements.
So, plase, I URGE you to post all the information you have on Sunshine and Mr Tafesse.
Can you be serious and comit to posting this information for us all to read.

In a country where there is no law, greedy men and women loot as they wish – need will be satisfied but not greed. It is impossible to satiate the greed of Azeb and her “friendly tyrant” husband/PM
