“Sendekalamachin!”
Excitement and jubilation as Ethiopian refugees received delivery of the original national flag.
Shock,
anxiety and bewilderment griped TPLF officials at the Ethiopian embassy
in Pretoria as refugees totally rejected the satanic flag of the
minority junta; a symbol of the brutal internal colonization of
Ethiopia.
On Thursday morning the original Ethiopian flag arrived
in Johannesburg directly from China, ahead of the black lions opening
match against the copper bullets of Zambia in Nelspruit, much to the
delight of thousands of patriotic fans. It was immediately distributed,
all thanks to the sterling work of the Ethiopian community association
in South Africa and the anti TPLF organization known as Bête-Ethiopia.
It will be proudly displayed on Monday at Mbonbela stadium.
“We
have a big surprise for the enemy of our flag, our history and our
tradition- the ruling junta. We are going to shame the dead tyrant Meles
Zenawi who once called our flag ‘a piece of garment.’ In bringing this
flag here, great gallantry has been displayed by great individuals here
in South Africa. Long live the Ethiopian community association! Long
live Bête- Ethiopia!” an elated refugee told the Horn Times.
With some of the flag stretching for up to 10m, it is now all systems go.
The Horn Times also watched some Ethiopians publicly dumping the TPLF flag they received earlier from embassy officials.

Meanwhile,
despite the minority junta’s attempt to sabotage the national team’s
arrival, we are all at Oliver Tambo international airport in
Johannesburg to welcome the black lions of Ethiopia.
