Tesfaye Habisso’s 2nd grand theft surfaces

Ethiomedia | June 10, 2011



Darch and Habisso
Tesfaye Habisso (right) stole the work of Dr. Colin Darch and put it on the Internet as his own.

It is indeed a very bad week for EPRDF in general and former Meles Zenawi’s ambassador to South Africa, Tesfaye Habisso, in particular after the latter was caught red-handed stealing the paper of South African scholar Dr. Colin Darch and marketing it on the Internet as his own fruit.


Tesfaye Habisso’s act was uncovered by Addis Voice editor
Abebe Gellaw.

Yesterday June 9 Ethiomedia received another tip that Tesfaye Habisso had committed a second grand theft in Ghana in 2009.

On 11 October 2003 GhanaWeb columnist Yaw Sophism wrote an article entitled “The Rise of Incivility In Our Public Discourse.”

Almost six years later, Tesfaye Habisso, Meles Zenawi’s ambassador to Uganda, copies the Ghanian’s feature article and pastes it on an pro-eprdf forum as his own.

If Meles Zenawi is Ali Baba, Tesfaye Habisso is undoubtedly one of the forty thieves housed in Arat Killo.

Now we invite our readers to be the judges, and decide the acts of Tesfaye Habisso for themselves:
