What a sad sad story! Addis Neger was one of the most credible private papers in Ethiopia. The journalists were excellent communicators. I was addicted to the paper! I wish the exiled journalists the best of luck till Ethiopia is freed from weyane scavengers.

Shame on the oppressive so-called government!

The silencing of ADDIS NEGER must roundly be denounced by all.

In particular,Medrek should condemn such repressive move in the strongest possible terms.

The recognition it was recently awarded by the regime to contend in the election as a legal entity should not lull Medrek from protesting the undue criminalization of and crackdown against what is seen by many as the last remnant of the independent press.

Medrek should not fall for the trap of the regime that gives a stay of execution for one while it is ‘finishing of’ the other.

If,today,it is ADDIS NEGER’s turn to go under the TPLF’S guillotine,it is certainly Medrek’s tomorrow.

The assassin’s hatchet does not spare anyone.
