There is no question that Yirgealem is a heroine and rightfully deserves recognition and award for her work , however, it is totally unacceptable for Erisat , which is known for denying its platform for for all kinds of Eritrean voice’s to award the prize in the name of Milkias Mihreteab, a brave Eritrean journalist, who heroically fought for freedom of speech in our homeland. Erisat actively practices censorship contrary to its founding principles. Milkias must be turning at his grave when he heard that notorious censors are awarding a prize in his name . This is a dictionary definition of hypocrisy. Erisat’s hypocrisy is mind boggling. The best way to honor Milkias and keep his legacy alive is to let critical thinker like YG ( Abi) and Wufuy, speak up their minds without censoring them. Thanks to technology, these days , printing a fancy certificate is so easy and cheap . What it makes a certificate or recognition, worthy is the institution that is awarding it . Any ordinary Eritrean RU-vidrs like Neshnesh TV, can issue a certificate and can give away more $1000 as a prize . During the award ceremony, at worst , i was expecting Yirgealem to respectfully ask Erisat to open up their platform to various Eritrean political voices for the sake Milkias and freedom of speech , and at best, to decline the award altogether. Also, it is not worthy to be awarded by Erisat, whose managing director, Henok Tekle ( Bicha), is an active member of HGDF affiliated Church in Washington DC area . Most Eritreans who live in DMV area know that . A genuine justice seeker does not associate himself / herself with the Church that was blackmailing the legitimate the 3rd Patriarch of Eritrean Orthodox Church . The Church where Henok is an active member, genuine Eritrean Orthodox Church clergies and scholars the like of Reverend and Dr. Tekleab , Reverend Dr. Futsum and Reverend Ghebremedhin are considered as villains and heretics. How on earth a high profile Eritrean opposition figure becomes an active members of a Church that supports the abduction and disappearance of its respected clergies and scholars. Imagine if Don Lemon of CNN is active member of a Church that is against BLACK LIVES MATTER movement. He would be called out for his hypocrisy. A man with deep convictions and principles draws a line on the sand . It is not too late for henok to do so . In addition, Erisat credibility is on the line . At the symposium, when i asked Erisat leaders if they believe Isaias is committing genocide against our people : “ It is not Erisat’s job to tell if Isaias is committing genocide against his own people or not committing. Our job is to open our platform for Eritreans to debate about it .“ Since it is obvious , i did not ask them about Tigray genocide because Erisat are known for their deep hatred of Tigray . But it did not occur to me that on the record that Erisat would not have the courage to tell the world that silent genocide is going on in Eritrea spearheaded by Isaias. To be frank, Eritrean genocide is far more morse than Tigray genocide in scope , magnitude and duration. If it were not for Isaias’ genocide , by now our population number would have been 8-10 million. But thanks to Isaias’s barbarism, our population number is less than 3 million. For Erisat , Isaias is a normal African dictator , and that is why they do not have any sense of urgency.
