Gross Human right violations and destruction of oromo elites In Ethiopia


Gross Human right violations  and destruction of oromo  elites In Ethiopia


Today the Ethiopian government led by the Tigrayan regime have dominated cities and towns in Oromia and have segregated the oromo people both in urban and rural areas and have kept them under ¨Ethiopian political slavery ¨ by using the army ,modern weapon, the media , the telephone, the fax, the internet , and other communication and information apparatuses and network . Recently only  in the month of June Oromo  journalist are being falsely accused of providing information to diaspora news organizations like VOA, DW, Seif, Eri-TV (Oromo), Oromo Voice Radio and the newly inaugurated Oromia Media Network (OMN).
According to different sources and eye witness, 17 Oromo journalists of the Oromia Radio and Television Organization (ORTO) have been forced out of their jobs as of June 25, 2014.
The journalists say they have received no prior notices and learned of their fates on Wednesday morning (June 25, 2014) when the security at the gate prevented them from entering the station’s compound located in Adama.
Members of the management informed the journalists that they could not help them as the decision to terminate their employments and the list of names came from the federal government. According Human rights watch reports and other International Medias showed us the Ethiopia government spying on citizens' phone calls and Internet activity. It details how Ethiopia's ruling party intercepts cellphone communications and emails, censors websites and harasses opposition bloggers and Facebook users — all with the help of technology made in Germany, Italy, China and the UK.
Intercepted communications have been used to crack down on opposition party members, political dissidents, journalists and young members of the ethnic Oromo population.
In one instance, an unidentified Oromo man recounted what happened when he was arrested. The authorities knew everyone he had communicated with through his cellphone, and even described conversations he had with his friends and associates in detail.
"'If you are talking through this telephone, we record all conversations,'" the authorities told him, according to the Human right watch report.

Using political violence, the Tigrayan government has completely dominated and controlled the oromo and their resource. The Tigrayan government has denied them the freedom of expression and organization as well as access to the media and all forms of communications and information networkmo-journalists.
