African and European civil society activists at a seminar in Geneva on Thursday, 7 December, discussed a report on the appalling situation of African refugees and migrants currently stranded and stressed the urgency of addressing the root causes that forced people out of their home countries. The seminar also strongly advised diaspora African civil societies to closely work with sister agencies in the continent.

Panelists included Mr. David Koros,  director of the African Centre Against Torture (ACAT), who  presented the report; Dr. Daniel Rezene of the Eritrean Law Society, who talked on the role of African regional human rights mechanism in the protection of abuses against refugees and migrants, and Mr. Bert Verstappen, senior documentalist. Organized by ACAT, the  seminar was attended by members of African and European non-state actors as well as UN and EU representatives. The EPDP was represented by head of its foreign relations office.

The ACAT report indicated that up to 84% of the refugees/migrants in Libya, 80% of them young men, suffered extreme forms of torture in the hands of armed militias, human traffickers and other abusers. It also noted that the situation observed in 34 overcrowded detention centres was bad beyond imagination. The European Union so far spent over two billion Euros with the aim of keeping away the flow to refugees/migrants to Europe.

When the organizers made repeated calls for ideas on what can be done to address the problem of migrants and refugees from Africa, Eritreans in the audience agreed that the best solution is to concentrate efforts on ending bad governance in the continent and stop supporting corrupt and repressive regimes in Africa, starting with the worst of them - Eritrea.

It was reported that the European Union has so far spent over two billion Euros to curb refugee flow from Africa. It is also to be recalled that the African and EU summit in Abidjan on 29-30 November 2017 agreed to make efforts to repatriate the near-million people stranded in Libya within six weeks. So far, nothing has been mentioned about the Eritrean refugees who may finally end up as people without a government that cares for and about them.

The newly formed Commission for Party Renewal of the Eritrean People's Democratic Party (EPDP) held its first meeting on 2 December 2017 at which it adopted its internal regulations and elected Mr. Fessehaye Hagos as chairman and Mr. Medhanie Habtezghi as secretary of the Commission. The meeting also made an initial review of the general concepts included in the party renewal document that was passed to it by the EPDP Central Council.

The Commission, which is expected to report periodically to  the Central Council on the formalities of the implementation of the Party Renewal document, will hold its second meeting within the next two weeks. It is currently composed of 12 senior EPDP members from nine countries (Australia, Ethiopia, Germany, the Sudan, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States of America).

The over four-hour meeting of the Commission on Saturday started by making general review of the geopolitical situation in the Horn of Africa region, naturally focusing focus on Eritrea, Ethiopia and the Sudan. It also heard happy tidings related to the North America zone   which has successfully overcome uncalled for hiccups and is making fast moves towards holding its extraordinary congress as called by the Party leadership.

While discussing and adopting the internal rules, meeting participants reassured their continued resolve  to serve at any level of the Commission and the party in order to help revive our people's interest and commitment make more sacrifices in the still uphill struggle for democratic change in Eritrea. 

The Party Renewal document  is to be further enhanced for smooth implementation by the Commission. It paper was prepared following a decision of the Central Council in September 2016. Draft of the document was discussed at the Europe-Zone conference in March 2017 and reviewed and adopted for further action by the 8th Central Council on 10 September 2017.

Picture shows the mosque in Beskdira in which the Ethiopians massacred 118 men, women and children after the villagers refused to be separated as Muslims and Christians. The next day, 1 December, was the turn for Ona residents. Ona was a concentration camp for people who were forced to settle in it after their villages were burnt down by the army. Eye-witnesses say well over 700 bodies were buried in mass graves the next day. Some corpses outside the village were left to the hyenas because people were ordered to leave the area soon. After 47 years, no one  knows the exact figure of victims and their names. And no effort is made by independent Eritrea's "government". 

Veteran ELF fighters who participated in the discussions revealed that the liberation organization was very well informed from inside the Ethiopian government itself about the trip to Keren of General Teshome Ergetu who was then killed in an ELF ambush at HabromGaqa near Elebered. ELF forces and fedaeen assigned in the operation to ambush the Ethiopian army were commanded by JimiE Abulkher, with Ghebrehiwet Himbirti as his deputy.

The mass media discussants in the above mentioned radios and paltalk-rooms claimed that General Teshome Ergetu was reportedly swearing to "put an end to the Eritrean rebellion" in one go. It was claimed that only very few survived of the Ethiopian soldiers in General Teshome Ergetu's convoy consisting of 15 large military personnel trucks.

It was as a revenge to the death of the Ethiopian top army general that so many civilians were killed in 1970 at Ona, Beskdira and many other places in the region that year.

Participants in the social media chats on the Ona-Beskdira Massacre regretted that nothing has been done so far by Independent Eritrea - at least in honouring the victims. It is to be recalled also that Ethiopia was not asked even nominal compensations for the massacres it committed against innocent civilians in Eritrea. Others worried about the families and relatives that lost their children who were adopted by foreigners after the Ona-Beskdira killings. Some newly born children were found alive in the ruins of burnt down Ona.

It is to be recalled that, starting in 1986, the ELF-RC commemorated 1 December as its Martyrs' Day. This commemoration continued till December 2009.
