Ethiopians in Norway demand the release of Teddy Afro

December 12th, 2008 |  |  4 Comments

(EMF) – Ethiopians residing in Oslo, Norway, held a rally on Dec. 10, 2008, demanding the release of the popular artist Teddy Afro. The demonstration was held in front of a city hall where the 2008 Noble peace prize was awarded.

Demonstrators chanted: “Free Teddy Afro!” “Free all political prisoners in Ethiopia!” “Justice and democracy in Ethiopia!” They denounced the dictatorial regime of Meles Zenawi and the unjustified arrest and of Teddy Afro.

Government officials and diplomats from different countries, journalists, and guests of the Noble prize ceremony observed the demonstration. Leaflets describing the politically motivated court drama against Teddy Afro, and the injustice in Ethiopia were distributed to the public.

The protest rally was organized by Kinijit Support and Development Organization in Norway
