Any economic growth under ethnic federalism goes to benefit the corrupt regime and its alien puppets, whilst annually begging for food aid and disregarding the land rights of Ethiopians, it prefers to lease off large tracts of land to outsiders who export the bulk of the produce. Ethiopian pay a heavy price for this approach to economic development , for it bears no fruit Ethiopians can eat.

"In our own times, there are those expansionists who by shedding blood, desire to achieve their ambition and by dismembering themselves they are seen as tools for alien interests. Our people from Ethiopia shed blood, to save them from disintegration. Those personalities who believe in freeing a country by secession are selfish and prey to outsiders. We will not accept their motives.' Selected speeches of HIM Negus Haile Selassie I, page 426

Neither the alien imposed federation of secession, Katuri or any other neo-colonial enterprise has a legal foot to stand on. Ethiopians from all regions of the empire demand their entitlement to gasha of freehold land to be past down from generation to generation in order to increase their standard of living be restored and respected, immediately, as well as respect to the United Nations universal declarations of indigenous rights and human rights, taking into consideration Article 15
(1) Everyone has the right to a nationality.
(2) No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality nor denied the right to change his nationality.

"The fundamental obstacle to the realisation of the full measure of Ethiopia's agricultural potential has been, simply stated lack of security in the land. The fruits of the farmer's labour must be enjoyed by him whose toil has produced the crop." Selected speeches of HIM Negus Haile Selassie I, pages 492-3

"The aim of those leaders that is based on ambition for power and personal gain is one with no firm foundation and will, consequently, crumble easily." Selected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, page 471

"The longevity and tenacity of a building can be judged by its foundation." Selected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, page 495
