Since we started this blog a week or so ago, we have been trying to underscore the importance of standing in unity for the common cause. No matter how hard we tried, differences will continue to exist. We have to learn how to work together on the things we agree on instead of fighting over every minor difference we have.
Mr. Obang Mathew has been preaching unity and reconciliation since we have come to know him a little over a year ago. He has been doing that persistently while so many of us were busy throwing muds at each other. His recent article is a continuation of his consistent call for unity.
His call seems to be getting attention this time around. KIL’s recent call for mass civil disobedience is a case in point. In its press release, KIL states that it will work with other interested parties in planning and executing the planned action. That is the way to go KIL! Unless we stand together and act at the same time, EPRDF is not going to have a problem to come after each and every one of us. We would like to reiterate what we have said in our previous post: The more united we become, the stronger we will be. And that is what will win EPRDF.
Finally, we would like to leave you with the following quote from a Lutheran church pastor during the Nazi period:
“They came for the Jews but I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t a Jew. They came for the Gypsies but I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t a Gypsy.They came for the mentally retarded but I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t mentally retarded. Finally they came for me and no one said anything because no one was left to speak."
………………..
On a side note, its funny to see how hard the EPRDF mouth pieces in the diaspora- Hager Fikir and Aiga Forum-are trying to make us believe that there is a big conspiracy in KIL. We know your tricks Aiga and Hager fikir. Your boss in Addis is a master in planting spies inside oppositions and we understand that you are trying to continue that trend. Poor fellas!!
