Galbeedi will be sick to his stomach. I hope this is internet fake news.

Those who are calling for Abiy Ahmed and those calling for Lema are different. The only thing common is it has to be Oromo. They are actually throwing some tid bits at each others candidate as to why it should be this not that. Addis Ababa and the Oromo language are going to be headache for everybody including Somali. Remember Dirdawa is federal city and both Oromo and Somali did just postpone argumrent even fight over it in 1991. I am sure galbeedi would be happy to make it Oromo, since he started stating the Oromo are now majority which is not true. Who ever comes, his test for Tigray is the GERD and internally to control the security and ensure safety of citizens in all kilils.

I wonder how many illegal payments were made in order to secure Bosaso and Berbera?

It is good that the Tigray bosses are planning to force any Oromo stooge to visit Jigjiga and ask for forgiveness. It will not bring back the dead Somalis, but it may give the Somalis a temporary political closure.

^ Old Observer, I didn't know your algorithms were capable of sarcasm... In any case, OO, tell us...which of the Oromo guys in the running is the Tigray establishment backing?

what is going in Awdal? maybe Galbeedi can explain?

Are you sure the wrong information is not given to agencies to damage Awdal's reputation? I smell something sinister.

^ Things are moving fast, indeed. The Tigre military hasn't found the ideal Oromo stooge to place into the premiership. A stooge who will serve their purposes and hopefully prolong/protect their hegemony. There are not too sure about this Lemma Megersa fellow. They're afraid that once he is in, he could become confrontational and insist upon drastic reforms which would include the arrest of the Tigray who stole the nation's wealth. When you think about it, it is all just a big crapshoot.

Honestly, this is a good news. Qalbidhagax's family and many of the other prisoners will be overjoyed. This will be a big embarrassment for Farmaajo's government. Karma of the highest proportions.
