It may be true that no coalition is indeed a partnership of equals. In other words, the party who has the majority of votes in an election is the one considered to be the majoritarian party. On the other hand, the parties which have agreed to stay or join the coalition have accepted implicitly or explicitly this arrangement. And this is what the other partners of the TPLF coalition need to acknowledge and live with. That is why we hardly ever hear about their respective parties’ “congresses”, but only that of the TPLF, and occasionally of its creature the EPRDF.
