The millennium party that was organized by Woyanne billionaire businessman Sheik Al Amoudi was attended by very few people other than Meles Zenawi, his puppet, President Girma Wolde-Giorgis, Woyanne officials and some opportunist individuals.
The much-talked-about party, which was organized at the cost of $10 million in the Bole district of Addis Ababa, was being shown live on the state-run TV.
The party hall was almost empty, as the TV cameras showed tonight. Meles himself appears to be uneasy as he listened “Don’t Lie” by Black Eyed Peas band from the U.S. The only person who is seen enjoying himself seems to be Meto Aleqa Girma Wolde-Giorgia, because food is in abundance supply at the party.
There was another party in Addis Ababa Stadium that was hosted by the Woyanne-installed mayor of Addis Ababa. That party was also a bust. There were very few people inside the stadium, as shown on TV. The Federal Police, Meles Zenawi’s trigger-happy killers, may have outnumbered the party-goers.
In Jan Meda, there were more people, but almost all of them teenagers. Even that one did not look any thing close to a millennium party.
So this was how the millennium was received in Ethiopia — Meles listening to Black Eye Peas from the U.S., “President” Girma attacking a table full of food, the Woyanne mass murderers getting drunk, may be to forget about their murder spree, and the rest of Ethiopians staying at home and praying to God for a better future for the country.
It was the height of hypocrisy any way for Meles and his Woyanne gang to try to celebrate Ethiopia’s 2000. Didn’t they say that Ethiopia’s history is only 100 years old?
