January 18,2017
Normally, Epiphany is a special celebration in Gondar. It attracts tourists from around the world. But this year, Timkat is not like before. People in Gonder refused to celebrate the holiday and rather opted for staying at home in a rebellious spirit.
Hundreds of youth were shot dead in the town and people are still in grief as well. As a result, high ranking government officials have been trying to lobby people so as to make them celebrate Epiphany (Timkat) the way it used to be. However, residents in Gondar are demanding the release of arrested youth and elders alike whose where about is not known yet.

ESAT Special on PM Hailemariam Desalegn 4 years in office [Amharic]
ESAT Special
January 26,2017
ESAT Special takes a look on the four years of Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn ‘s four years in the office. If there is something that Hailemariam is popular for, it is his imbecile political behavior and appearance. Many observers seem to agree that his problem is not just communication problem. He is in fact clueless about the things he talks about.
Often times, he seems to focus,sometimes totally, on imitating thinking pattern,gestures and body languages of the late Meles Zenawi rather than thinking what he is talking about. For many, people it is even hard to comment on Hailemariam. He does not seem to have material for political leadership.
Hailemariam Desalegne became prime minister after ailing Meles Zenawi passed away. Conceivably, the death of Meles Zenawi left power vacuum within the ruling party. At the same time, it gave rise power struggle within the ruling party which is a coalition of four ethnic based parties. Hailemariam Desalegne was deputy prime minister at the time of the death of Meles Zenawi and there exists constitutional provision that stipulates deputy prime minister will be in charge of the office of the prime minister in the absence of the the prime minister.
When Hailemariam Desalegne took over the office of the prime minister after wranglings and internal struggles.But he was not given the office with all its powers and privileges. The ruling party came up with the idea of collective leadership and three other deputy prime ministers were assigned – which remarkably reduced the power of the prime minister.
For many Ethiopians, it is clear that Tigray People’s Liberation Front exercises political power from behind and Hailemariam Desalenge is a nominal figure with no power what so ever. He does not seem to have clarity on many local issues – as seen in many press conferences with local journalists. Overall, Hailemariam is not just a quintessential example of incompetent politician but also he does not seem to have any political material in his behavior. However, he contributed to ethno-chauvinist Tigray people’s Liberation Front by way of being a point of comparison to glorify the ideology of the ruling party – which is Meles Zenawi.

Heruy Tedla Bairu interview on Ethiopia and Eritrea – Part II
February 4,2017
For Heruy Tedla Bairu, the border conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea is not about border dispute. It is rather a conflict caused by currency and breach of agreement made between Eritrean leadership and TPLF leadership -apparently during thier guerrilla times.
This is part two of SBS Amharic radio interview, Heruy Tedla Bairu reveals his political view,relation with the regime in Ethiopia and his political aspiration as far as Ethiopia and Eritrea is concerned.
Apparently, the picture that emerges from the entire two parts interview is that Heruy staunchly opposes the government of Isayas Afeworki -which is not the case for the regime in Ethiopia.
