When PM Abiy visited Gambella on May 22, 2018, he raised the hopes of the young people as he promised inclusive change to their region. Many concerns were voiced by the people, but since that time, no changes have taken place. Instead, the regional government authorities, military leaders and other power holders who have remained in power have strongly resisted change coming to Gambella. It has led to violence, injury, killings, arrests and the imprisonment of leaders of the Gambella youth movement.
