Head of the region, Yilkal Kefale, on Wednesday said all the region is doing is to “control illegal elements and anarchists” operating in the name of FANO. The security problem in the region, he said, reached the point where people can not make it home peaceful. Furthermore, he made claims the regional government has confirmed that there are internal enemies working to weaken the region in different forms. Yilkal Kefale also made reference to what he called “Drums of War ” from the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF). Many Ethiopians, as expressed in social media status updates and conversations, tend to see Yilkal Kefale as incapable of resisting the desire on the part of Abiy Ahmed’s government to weaken FANO in the region.
