This guy is going to be the future of Ethiopia. He bid his time. He was a sleeper and at the he opportune time made a deal with Oromos patriotic front. His Parliament majority is unchallengeable. He had reshuffled cabinet, retired all army generals loyal to the old regime. CIA is giving him cover. His coup by starting talks with eriteria has killed rebels supply lines.
Masterstroke a genius. He is going to be a power to recknon in Africa
