![]() ![]() For me, despite the popular acceptance of the dazzling heroic and gallant valour of Ras Alula Abanega throughout Ethiopia, it has been impossible to understand why TPLF bigwigs had been tight-lipped and even discouraged the praising, rejoicing and celebration of the victory of Dogali. In fact, the rhetoric of TPLF officials was marked by undermining the victory and sacrifices of all Ethiopian emperors with no exceptions, including Yohannes IV and his entourage as nothing more than brutal feudal leaders. It is nonetheless necessary and desirable for the current disillusioned, ethno-politicised new generation of the region and other parts of Ethiopia.įor the last 28 years, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) has never mentioned or discussed, let alone remember and celebrate, this victory. The sudden remembrance of the victory of the battle of Dogali, after nearly three decades of outright silence and abandonment, however, appears to be a very positive yet surprising development. In its typical ethnicization of history, the interview on DW (Dimsi Woyane) particularly highlighted the role Tegaru played to the exclusion of other Ethiopians. Uncharacteristically, the 132nd anniversary of the victory of the battle of Dogali, a war between the invading colonial Italian and defending Ethiopian forces, has been commemorated with panel discussions at Mekele, interviews with various individuals who offered purportedly historical explanations, and vast coverage by the Tigray-based broadcast media. ![]() Can we just recognize Ras Alula for who he is: a great Ethiopian patriot who deserves a memorial free from the political manipulation of history? wiki-commons:Special:FilePath/Tigray_in_Ethiopia.As the commemoration of a battle with immense significance to Ethiopia, the media coverage of the momentous victory at that battle, and the depiction of Ras Alula Abanega – the indomitable hero who led his forces to victory in defence of his country – has been quite disappointing, thanks to all sorts of self-serving factual distortions from various sides. ![]() wiki-commons:Special:FilePath/004a_Mekelle_Airport.jpg.wiki-commons:Special:FilePath/Steel_pog.svg.Sources:List of the busiest airports in Africa (en).dbr:List_of_the_busiest_airports_in_Africa.wiki-commons:Special:FilePath/004a_Mekelle_Airport.jpg?width=300.År 2007 besökte drygt 159 000 personer flygplatsen.
