Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces Alliance and political accountability

Hambisa Belina has published a commentary piece regarding the formation of the Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces Alliance for Survival (EPFAS). The author argues that the establishment of this new opposition coalition raises fundamental questions about representation, public consent, and political accountability. Belina posits that a promised future election does not authorize current leaders to exercise unchecked power beforehand. He emphasizes that for true liberation to occur without the emergence of a new dominator, political leaders must remain strictly accountable to the public they claim to represent.
