Why Ethiopia May Likely Loose Tigray Region. by bigpriik: 12:26pm On Nov 26, 2020
The trigray region of Ethiopia is just like northwest Nigeria,the northwest has almost 90% of Nigerias political and military power .

The war against tigray region is war Ethiopia may likely loose because a region the has 70% of the countrys millitary power and bases is in a better position to win turn war on paper and if that happens it may lead to total disintegration of ethopia because oromians who are the largest ethnic group also want out of ethopia,if tigray breaks away successfully other components may want out too.

No region has 70% military power in Ethiopia or Nigeria. Ethiopia operates a national army and not a regional one. The selfish Tigrays didn't remember breakup when they were calling all the shots. Tigray will be blockaded into submission.

A military force of over 250,000 well drilled soldiers is no joke..

Stop blabbing nonsense, can they alone fight the other tribes. With just 6% of the total population can they fight the others?
They better give up and allow peace to reign

Lol... Ethiopians forces are asking that there should be no foreign interference. More like, "wait let's finish them!"

Aljazeera just reported that some of the Tigray soldiers are surrendering. No region holds 70% of any army in the world. In fact, such a thing doesn't exist. The command is central. The central will usually beat the regional into submission.

You either mistake the Ethiopian army for a regional one or fell for Tigray's propaganda. Ethiopia will force the Tigray into submission with blockade and military might, just watch.

"Ethiopia's PM said they are surrendering while Tigray's leader said they will fight to death to protect their land", please quote Aljazeera properly next time don't make it suit one party. Also fact check what that guy said about the Tigrayan region holding majority of the military might.

Even if Tigray has a chance of winning ordinarily, now that they are bringing Eritrea into the equation, the job just got doubly harder for them. Such a foolish move firing a missile into Eritrea. It doesn't matter how much army they have, they are not fighting smart.

He is correct to an extent, if you have followed the build up to this war you would see that even the Oromians who are core enemies to the Tigray people also want to break away, that's why they are not interfering in this conflict. If by chance Tigray succeeds then Oromians that has a much larger Army than the Tigray people would also want to split. After all Eritrea, also broke away from Ethiopia and the heavens never fell.

Yes, this is the only place I feel they are not getting it right. Firing a missile into Asmara is like trying to go to war with Eritrea but aside that the Tigray Forces have held their own well enough, I hope it ends soon though.
