The Amhara branch of the party has been accused of being nostalgic of what racial ethnic Oromo politicians call “ye derow sereat” – it translates to “The old system.” But the Amhara Branch of Prosperity Party tend to rejects those types of accusations. And if there is a bad history, we do not have an interest in becoming an advocate for it. However, we do not want to be captives of our past history and expose our people to political diseases. The Amhara Region prosperity party sees the trend as an effort to hang on the shoulders of the people to perpetuate divisive narratives and maintain a hold on power through bloody paths or take power. It also demonstrates the tendency to deny the gift of living today and the practice of regular political gambling.
