Dear young generation of Oromo’s and Ethiopians in diaspora

By Imee Biyyo

Your fellow youth in the Oromo lands within Ethiopia are facing the minority TPLF Government that is armed with all latest weaponry and military equipment. All of this oppression is occurring just to deny the Oromo youth’s basic human right of the right to peaceful protests.
The fundamental objective of these protests is to stop the TPLF Government from selling Oromo land in and around Finfinne or better known as Addis Ababa. The TPLF Government has displaced many innocent and defenseless Oromo farmers and landowners.

Your fellow youth are struggling for their family and national self-preservation. For demanding their human right to protest peacefully they are facing jail, persecution and even death as shown in the picture below. This has been widely circulated in various media forums including newspapers, the news media and even social media has seen an influx of the various peaceful protests, which the Oromo youth are conducting.

Both the Oromo and Ethiopian youth in diaspora can become the backbone of your fellow Oromo and Ethiopian youth in Oromia and Ethiopia by accepting your role helping to implement a diplomatic solution to the problem. You can be the voice for the voiceless Oromo and Ethiopian youth who are getting killed on a daily basis. Yes, you the Oromo and Ethiopian youth in diaspora can rise with your fellow Oromo and Ethiopian youth who are facing the brutal TPLF Government by stepping up your diplomatic mission to every government of yours around the world. Yes you can step up to pass the message of defenseless youth to the world media as ambassadors of the people you originated from.

I personally call upon the Oromo and Ethiopian youth in diaspora to wake up and save your fellow Oromo and Ethiopian youth in Oromia and Ethiopia. Your commitment can shape the struggle of your fellow Oromo and Ethiopian youth in Oromia and Ethiopia to one day bear the fruit of freedom, which we so luckily enjoy on a daily basis.

As we have seen the Ethiopian community in Washington DC protesting against the oppression of Oromo youth in Ethiopia, we call upon all Ethiopian youth to join the struggle against the corrupt and unjust TPLF Government.

I call upon the Oromo and Ethiopian youth in Oromia and Ethiopia, you the diaspora youth to conduct urgent meeting wherever you are throughout the world and support the burning struggle of your fellow youth in Oromia and Ethiopia unconditionally.

This is your time to bring change for the people you originated from. It is a once in a lifetime contribution that will give hope for the youth like you who lost hope under the corrupt TPLF Government in Oromia and Ethiopia.

I hope you undertake urgent action to become a voice for those voiceless youth in Oromia and Ethiopia. Yes you can be a role model for the rest of the world by supporting the peaceful struggle of the Oromo and Ethiopian youth.

Many Thanks
