what a prophecy!

Didn't he say "weed farm"? InshaAlah , one day , I may read that book before it gets obsolete. May be not , I mean , it may not get obsolete in our lifespan. Only the conception phase of democracy , to which Ethiopia had been inching lill by lill , could take up to 25 years. Then comes labour(delivery) phase , which could be painful and protracted , taking up to 25 yars . Next comes the growth and maturity phase, which can take several centuries and has no clear end in sight . No wonder Democracy is said to be " a millon mile trip" and above all , each step appears hard to finish . Worst yet , in our case , we are still bickering and pulling back those pioneers who started to take the first few steps of that endless journey .
Lidetu was ineed trying to find the invisible and elusive track , attempting to take his own first steps in the generational jouney , but they derailed his track and pulled him back as they floundered with him. Now he is back to ground zero , on the opposite and remote end to where his detracrors are leaning . ... That was when and where he foresaw trouble , and immediately after that , he predicted and spoke his mind very clearly and said : "they will fall apart like a house of cards, and soon after that , they will be at eachother's throats". Yisewren ! The guy is somethin , isn't he? What a genius ,
Abel

Lidetu is either a great social scientist or just a simple wizard.
