“The Militarization of Betrayal: Day 74 of Tadesse Worede’s Criminal Presidency and the Hijacking of Tigray’s Martyrs’ Legacy”
Executive Alert
In just 74 days, Tadesse Worede’s presidency has crossed all red lines of constitutional illegitimacy, moral failure, and political sabotage. His administration void of vision, grounded inmilitarized corruption, and aligned with outlawed TPLF warlords has plunged Tigray intounprecedented institutional breakdown, social despair, and security fragility. This report presents an urgent strategic monitoring update, capturing the cumulative failuresand emerging dangers of a presidency that has become a threat to the very survival of Tigray’scivil statehood.
Background: The 90-Day Plan of Deceit
On Day 1 of his self-proclaimed leadership, Tadesse Worede launched what he called a “90-DayAction Plan” a political stunt designed to buy time, appease external stakeholders, andneutralize dissent. With only 16 days remaining, our findings confirm that 99.9% of the planremains unfulfilled, abandoned, or sabotaged from within. Independent survey data from the Horn of Africa Geopolitical Review, Tigray Media Watch, andThe Tigray Herald reveals a clear public verdict.This is not merely the most inefective presidency in Tigray’s modern history it is the mostdangerous.
Strategic Findings and Public Sentiment Analysis
Sabotaging the IDP Return Process
One of the most disgraceful chapters of this presidency is the deliberate sabotage of theInternally Displaced Persons (IDPs) return process an act of betrayal directly orchestrated incollaboration with outlawed TPLF leadership.
Key Observations:
The TPLF openly declared in media that “saving the party comes before returning thepeople”a shocking and inhumane admission.The IDPs many displaced for over 5 years have now organized powerful “Enough is Enough”demonstrations across Tigray.Ironically and grotesquely, the very architects of their sufering Tadesse Worede and TPLFfigures are attempting to hijack and participate in these protests for political theatrics.
The truth is clear:
Tadesse Worede and the TPLF political elite are the primary obstacles to the return of IDPs.Their party interests, security fiefdoms, and illicit war economies take precedence over thesufering of the people.
The Criminal Entanglement of Warlords
The resurgence of TPLF warlord General Megebe Haile, known for his role in Tigray’s illegalgold mining syndicate, is further proof of the criminalization of Tigray’s political transition.General Megebe has been operating in Aksum and Shire, allegedly using Tigray Martyrs’ Daycommemorations as a cover for clandestine meetings and resource smuggling strategies.His actions are fully protected by Tadesse Worede, who has chosen warlords over justice, partypower over the people, and silence over sovereignty.
A Sinister Alliance: Tadesse Worede and Eritrea’s PFDJ
Disturbing intelligence suggests that Tadesse Worede is engaging in covert coordination withthe genocidal Eritrean PFDJ regime, under the guise of “post-conflict alliances.” Such anact given Eritrea’s brutal record of war crimes in Tigray constitutes a betrayal of the martyrs’blood and a crime against the very identity of Tigray. This is not diplomacy. It is collaboration between two criminal enterprises.
Judicial Breakdown: The Case of Zenabu Hagos
The regime’s disregard for law reached a boiling point in the case of Zenabu Hagos, who was:
Illegally detained on fabricated charges related to allegedly stolen laptops connected to Debretsion Gebremichael.
Acquitted by the court-yet the military refused to comply with the ruling, keeping him detainedin defiance of judicial authority.This case symbolizes the collapse of legal order in Tigray under Tadesse Worede:The courts are powerless.The military is above the law.The Presidency is complicit.
Public Opinion and Survey Results
Surveys conducted by HAGR, TMW, and Tigray Herald Editorial Board show:89% of Tigrayans believe Tadesse Worede’s presidency has caused more harm than good.76% say they feel less safe under the current administration.92% of IDPs reject the narrative that their return is blocked by security concerns they blamepolitical manipulation.
Narrative Message to the People of Tigray
“Enough is Enough” Must Point in the Right Direction
The “Enough is Enough” movement must expose the truth not be co-opted by those whocaused the sufering. The protests must call out:Tadesse Worede, who stands as the operational head of political stagnation and militaryimpunity.The TPLF elite, who continue to sabotage the IDP return process to secure their illegitimateparty resurrection.The warlords, who exploit Tigray’s blood-soaked resources while hiding behind martyr domcommemorations. The above core and above the laws TPLF army’s Generals.
The real enemies of Tigray’s peace, justice, and return to civilian rule are not in Addis Ababa or Asmara alone they are embedded within Tigray, under military jackets and politicalmasks.
Strategic Recommendations
- Immediate dissolution of the illegal Presidency of Tadesse Worede and formation of atransitional civilian-led technocratic government.
- Full legal investigation into General Megebe Haile’s gold exploitation network and warlordactivities.
- Complete demilitarization of Tigray’s civil institutions, beginning with the judiciary and policeforces held hostage by ex-TPLF militias.
- Launch of a People-Led IDP Return Commission, independent of TPLF influence, withinternational backing and legal protections.
- Expose and archive evidence of all judicial violations, corrupt deals, and warlord conspiraciesfor future war crimes prosecution.
Final Statement:
In the Name of the Martyrs Tigray’s martyrs did not die for warlords, for corruption, or for betrayal.They died for dignity, justice, and freedom.And on Day 74 of this criminal presidency, their legacy is being hijacked by the very forces theyresisted.The people of Tigray must rise with clarity and purpose not only to say “Enough is Enough,”but to name who must be held accountable, how, and now.
