Addis Ababa, April 7, 2022(Walta) – Internally Displaced Peoples (IDPs) in Sekota zone, Amhara state disclosed that they don’t have any medicine, sanitation, and even thin mattresses; hence, they are in dire need of food, medical supplies, and other related matters.
Visiting the two IDP camps in Amhara state, journalist Anne Garrison said that, they have had very little food, no medicines, sanitation facilities, and even thin mattresses to sleep on.
She said: “They told me that, TPLF had taken everything they had and finally fled to save their lives. We were not able to visit Alamata because the terrorist TPLF has still controlled it but we can confirm that there was neither electricity nor plumbing in the two cities we visited including the holy city of Lalibella home of the raccoon Ethiopian orthodox Tewahido church.”
The IDPs in the Wollo camp said, their houses were burned by the TPLF and after they come here they didn’t get any food and material supplies they urge the world community to supply food items there.
Another displaced woman in Medtech IDPs camp said she was living in Abergalle near the Tigray border. She said they haven’t got anything to eat and drink even any mattress to sleep on.
“If peace prevails, I will be nice; otherwise, we would like to join the military and fight against TPLF because this is a matter of life and death and the end of the world,” she added.
Director-General of the WHO, Tedros Adhanom’s crying out for humanitarian aid to Tigray without mentioning anything about the immense suffering in Amhara and Afar states when invaded by the TPLF clearly attests that he himself is one of the architects of the crime, she stressed.
