#NewsAlert: Orthodox Synod issues official apology for failing #Tigray Orthodox Church, its followers addisstandard.com/newsalert-orth… The official apology stated the Synod’s failure to plead “to end the war on time”, for failing to be physically present in Tigray during the war, and…

"Hundreds of thousands of #Oromo civilians are being displaced by government and ethnic violence in #Ethiopia but where can they find safety and support? Certainly not in #Egypt, according to the latest Oromia Support Group (OSG) report." awashpost.com/2023/03/03/unh…

#Tigray Orthodox Church declines call by Synod to normalize relations, blames Synod for endorsing “war of genocide”.... What next? addisstandard.com/analysis-tigra… @Medihane takes a deep dive to discuss recent exchanges between Tigray & the EOTC Synod, with comments from @GetachewAssefa_
The foundation of the #Ethiopia-n Orthodox Church is rooted in a colonial legacy. The demand of the EOTC leaders from Oromia and other nations is a demand for decolonization. It's also a question of representation and serving followers in their language. awashpost.com/2023/02/17/why…
The recent #EOTC split laid bare the naked Oromophobia and bigotry of many church leaders and followers. The pervasive hate speech against the Oromo underscores the urgent need for reform and reckoning with EOTC’s checkered history of abuse and violence: awashpost.com/2023/02/17/why…
#NewsAlert: Orthodox Church leaders said after constructive discussions, they have agreed to end schism, to work together to strength the unity of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahdo Church (EOTC) & its Holy Synod. Full statement on the agreement being read. Developing story...
It has to be noted that this article is as much about the contemporary dynamics developing in the governance approaches of EOTC as the historical dominance & injustices within it, although the title missed to concisely capture the former—for lack of space. awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…
For years, the #EOTC ignored, dismissed, and misrepresented as tribalism and anti-#Ethiopian calls by the Orthodox faithful and leaders within its ranks to adapt to the demographic, linguistic, and political changes taking shape since 1974. #Oromia #Tigray awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…
A good read for the background and context of the current #EOTC crisis. #Oromia “Making sense of the history of dominance and injustice in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church” awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…
“The deeply consequential decision by three senior archbishops to appoint 26 bishops to Oromia & other areas in southern Ethiopia is unraveling societal, as well as church-state relations, and it must be handled with extreme care & utmost responsibility” awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…

"Amhara nationalists often invoke የኢትዮጵያ አምላክ or the Ethiopian God with reverence. Their love for God is usually expressed in their love for a mythological #Ethiopia that shines out their glories over the rest of the people." awashpost.com/2021/04/17/the…
Making sense of the history of dominance and injustice in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church - The Awash Post “The Orthodox faithful across Oromia are cheerfully receiving the newly appointed religious leaders as they arrive at their local churches”. awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…
Here is my interview with @TheReporterET, covers wide ranges of topics on the #Ethiopian economy. thereporterethiopia.com/30453/ via @The Reporter Ethiopia
The Orthodox faithful in Oromia are cheerfully receiving the newly appointed leaders as they arrive at local churches. The outpouring of support for the new Synod underscores the need to change imperial-era administrative structures and governance of EOTC. awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak…
The following piece is an explainer, esp for international observers, on what is at stake in these fast-tracked developments. awashpost.com/2023/02/02/mak… 4/n; n=4
