This year Ethiopian Review starts to release its annual list of '25 Most Influential Ethiopians.' The list, which is prepared on Ethiopia's New Year, September 11 (Meskerem 1), is about 25 persons who are the most influential (for good or bad) in the Ethiopian society.
The following is this year's list. It is prepared in consultation with Ethiopian Review readers and editorial advisers.
Ethiopian Review's "25 Most Influential"
1. Meles Zenawi
2. Sebhat Nega.
3. Azeb Mesfin
4. Bereket
5. Al Amoudi
6. Abune Merkorios
7. Mohamed O. Osman, political leader. As chairman of the opposition Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) since 1998, Mohamed Osman is leading a well-armed fighting force that is shaking the Woyanne regime from its root. In retaliation to ONLF's military operations, Meles is carrying out a 'scorched earth' policy in the Ogaden region where Woyanne troops burn entire villages, massacre civilians and commit other crimes against humanity, as reported by credible international human rights groups such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. The crimes that are being committed by Meles in Ogaden in retaliation to attacks by Osman's ONLF could one day put the entire Woyanne leadership on trial for war crimes.
