For the size of the project and the amount of investment put in it, the major shareholder of Derba MIDROC Cement Plc, Mohammed Hussein Ali Al-Amoudi (Sheikh) has stayed away far too long from travelling to this far-flung area, 70km northwest of Addis Abeba, where the largest cement plant in Ethiopia has been erected.

SHABIA’S DANGERIOUS GAME

As we have read in the news, Eritrean govt infiltrated its militiamen to Ethiopian territory to kill and to abduct our fellow citizens as well as foreign tourists. This is an outrageous act extends to the declaration on war!

Ethiopian govt seems to take a cautious approach not to throw itself into an all out war. However, this approach might give a wrong signal for the reckless regime in Asmara to continue its perilous road. The regime in Asmara has to pay for the killings it committed in Ethiopia. Ethiopian govt must show its muscle for Shabia to return those who were abducted from our country.

Furthermore, the madman in Asmara has to understand that if we’re pushed to war, we’re not going to stop it at Seneafe or other border areas. He needs to know that there is a costly price to pay. Since we’re dealing with a proven reckless individual, our gallant army must monitor all activities from Asmara.

Shabia is playing a very dangerous game and hopefully this is the last time we’ll deal with it. May be an Eritrea without Isayas Afeworki is fast approaching. Amen.(Ben)
