Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>s Ababa January 11\/2022\/ENA\/ The atrocities committed by the TPLF on innocent citizens and the destructions caused on public facilities in Amhara and Afar regions are disheartening and inhuman, a Ugandan journalist said.<\/p>\n

Following his recent visit to the two regions, Managing Editor of Plus News Uganda Kungu Al-mahadi Adam told ENA that TPLF is not fighting for the rights and the well-being of the people of Tigray in particular and Ethiopians in general.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy should education institutions like universities, health services, and health centers which I saw be looted?\u201dAdam asked.<\/p>\n

The journalist who returned to Addis Ababa recently stated that he \u201csaw very old people in IDP camps, women and children as young as two to three years suffering and crying in pain as a result of the war that was taken to them by the TPLF. It was disheartening, challenging, and one of the worst experiences I have witnessed in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Adam, \u201cTPLF is not fighting for the people. TPLF seems to be having an agenda that is beyond fighting for the rights and the well-being of the people of Tigray in particular and the people of Ethiopia in general.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elders and children between 9 and 15 were forced by the TPLF to join them in fighting for what they call their region, the managing editor revealed, pointing out that \u201cin the first place that is crime based on several international protocols. Children below 18 are not supposed to be used on the front line.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added the leaders of TPLF have been forcing children as young as 9 to go and fight for them. So, this group cannot claim to fight for the people.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot claim that you are fighting for the people of Tigray when you are committing atrocities on them. Based on what journalists there (in Tigray region) told me, women who tried to oppose the wicked command of the group were raped.\u201d<\/p>\n

The managing editor noted that their claim of fighting for the people is simply to get public sympathy. \u201cThey are fighting for their personal agenda,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Adam pointed out that their mentality is all about putting the country down, not fighting for the good of the country and the good of the people.<\/p>\n
