An incredibly progressive thinker and visionary Oromo intellectual ever to grace the Ethiopian politics. Today more than ever Oromos need intellectuals of Halie Fida's caliber who can see the benefits of togetherness and the national health and strength that could be had from unity. Oromos need visionaries like Haile Fida who can see far with courteous vision and confidence the benefits of togetherness instead of the unjustified fear of others for the majority group the likes of the Oromos community in our country. Oromos intellectuals should look back to Haile Fida's vision and experience at the same time try to borrow a leaf from the here and now by looking at the way our Somali brothers and sisters are handling their region vis-a-vis the bigger national issues. Derg and Mengistu Hilemariam had left lasting damage on our country by frustrating and destroying Meson. They were amazing visionaries who could be able to see things well before time. It is not far from the truth if we say they had seen what we are in today coming very early from that early time. Having said that if we can go as far as Germany to learn their language and teach them ours why is it so difficult for us to learn each other's languages to make our lives easier given that our issues are centred mainly around differences in languages???
Haile Fida was one of the greatest human ever lived. But his name has been distorted by EPRP for half a century. EPRP and TPLF are the curse of Ethiopia.
I don't think so all the theory you are talking about representing the real Haile Feda. He was responsible for the death of all EPRP members and great future leaders like LT. GEBAYEW TEMESGEN. Dr Amare please talk about Mesfin Kassu and Negede Gobeze.
The real story about Haile Feda and all others will come soon. Would you please let us know about his professional experiences before he returned from Europe and join Derge. He never lead Meison.
What are you talking about?? In the 1st place:-Was “ Hayall-Fidda”an Ethiopian person?? Fidda - just like his name imported Horror, division, hatred etc... to promote the foreign agenda and by making it look like his agenda and goal - to satisfy his personal ego- at the cost of sacrificing core values, and precious children of Ethiopia.
He brought from Ambo to Derge office as prisoner. He was with that blue shirt and sit down as confused person. No one was with him at the time. Since then he was in prison. He was born and raised in Welega not in Addis. PLEASE don't tell us one of same blatant story. If you worshiping him as intellectual who wanted to Serve his people as democratic leaders. GIVE me the points what he did? Is that because he recruited promos for liberations under Meison cover?
