The mysterious death of Megestab Yisaq 1979

Researched and compiled by Resoum Kidane 22-5-2019

On the 28th anniversary of Independence Day,  let‘s remember former members of the EFLNA who became victims of the EPLF in the late 1970s. One of those victims was Mengesteab Yisak.

Mengesteab was among the founders of the “THisha” movement inside Ethiopia.  While a member, he developed strong ties with progressive Eritrean students some like Yohanese Sibhatu, Muse Tesfamichael and others  from Menk‘a who joined the EPLF and were executed in 1970s.

Regarding  Mengesteab connection with Menka group,  Harper,(2009) states that  the  members who were later executed by the EPLF had many friends and former classmate in the ELFNA, and the incident disillusioned more than a few. Mengesteab was one of the  disillusioned when he heard about the imprisonment of former members of Teihsha.

In the mid 1970s, Mengesteab  Yeisak, Petros Yohannes,  Tsegai Dinish, etc. members of the EFLNA  started to pose questions about the EPLF’s internal democracy and about the fighters who were reported to have been killed by the Front. 

 Petros Yohannes a student at Montreal University and a member of ENASA in the USA, started question the justness of the Menk’a group's arrest. Why were fighters who belonged to it imprisoned when they had called only for democracy? And what other acts had the EFL carried out? What was the reason for Shaba’s split from the ELF?

Tsegai Dinesh raised similar question but had been intimated by the Front‘s leaders when he visited the field in September 1975. Regarding this Hapner states that, Tsegai "Dinesh" had met with Issayas Afewerki and Masfin Hagos on a fact finding mission. As a result his fears and in turn that of the EFLNA's were assuaged. The phrase used by Ms. Hapner is that with "heavy heart" Issayas told Tsegai to keep the incident under the radar screen.  The ramifications of this came to haunt Mengisteab personally later when he dissented from EPLF's line of thinking

Mengisteab had been an influential member of the EFLNA’s leadership. He went to the field in 1975 with Paulos Tesfagiogris to find out what had happened to the Menk’a group.  According Dr Bereket Habte Selassie the report presented by Paulos, that denounced the group as anarchist was baseless and was not supported by Mengisteab.

Dr Bereket suggests that Mengisteab, was later seized with remorse for suppressing the EPLF’s alleged wrongs. Perhaps Paulos can  clarify this point; meanwhile, however, it is reasonable to suppose that a feeling of guilt for making the EPLF “look good” might have contributed to Mengisteab’s suicide barely a year after the fateful decision to break from and condemn the EPLF(.338-339)

The issue of human rights violations, raised by the EFLNA,  didn’t get much attention from its members after Paulos’s report. Thereafter the link between the EFLNA and EPLF strengthened considerably.  Based on the Paulos’s report, in July 1976, the EFLNA‘s  Executive Committee wrote to all branches, study groups, and individual members to answer the charge from Eritreans in Europe that the EPLF had killed Marxists in the field.  The organization denied such killings and attacked the document as false and vehemently defended EPLF’s policy and stand.  (Lib.1-5?). This happened during the EFLNA‘s affiliation to the EPLF. According Plaut, in March 1976, when Sabbe withheld all financial and logistical assistance and the flow of external resources suddenly dried up, the EPLF leadership made a u-turn and appealed to the leadership of the EFLNA to affiliate to the Front and to substantially increase its financial contribution.

After the EFLNA affiliated,  Andebrehan, chair of the EFLNA in 1972, states in his book “Eritrea at a Crossroads: A Narrative of Triumph, Betrayal and Hope” that he left the EFLNA in the fall of 1976 for the field to serve as a member of the Secretariat of the First Congress of the EPLF.  This was held in January 1977, and he was elected to the Front's Central Committee    

The EFLNA also sent its delegates to attend the First Congress of the EPLF at mieda (field). One of those delegates was Megesteab. He was  not elected to the Front's Central Committee because he had criticised the EPLF leaders for violations of the basic rights of the fighters.

Megesteab, a committed members of EFLNA,  is described by Harper as a dedicated Marxist and nationalist. He “is remembered today as extraordinarily committed, articulate, and passionate leader posses of great intelligence and charismatic appeal. His unprecedented degree of commitment was succinctly summarized by one of Hepner’s interviewees’:

“He was always in the office, and he was always reading. He was always very into it. He sometimes slept there on the couch- he was committed one hundred thousand percent. We said” this guy is going to die here!” Everybody used to say to him”Don’t you ever go home? Don’t you go outside?” He was—obsessed.’ ( Kibreab 2007:385).

The conflict between Mengesteab and EPLF leadership reached a peak with the Soviet and Cuban assistance to the Ethiopian military regime in 1977.  During that year Mengesteab Yisaq as the chair of EFLNA/ENASA said he wanted the EPLF to unequivocally denounce the Soviet Union for its transgression. Another reason for which Mengisteab was critical of the EPLF was the same reason for which the EPLF had been critical of the ELF,  for deciding unilaterally to negotiate peace with the Derg.  In October 1978, the EFLNA had published a pamphlet, entitled, ‘Revolution or Capitulation‘ which Haprner asserts was written mainly by Mengesteab to defend the EFLNA‘s position to split.

The book was prohibited to EPLF fighters and its mass organisations.  Beyan Negash who was a high school student in Cairo, in 1979, recalls that when the EPLF members in Cairo were about to receive the translated version of the controversial booklet (Against the capitulationism line of the ‘Leaders’ of the Eritrean Revolution EFLNA New York New York 1978) its discussion was prevented by the arrival of Naizghi Kiflu, Haile Menkerios (former member of EFLNA) and Alamin M. Said, who discouraged any discussions of the translated material.

Dan Connell on December 15, 1979 reported in the  Guardian:

"One of the main EFLNA leaders committed suicide after co-authoring a lengthy self-criticism” What Dan Connell reported was the EPLF‘s version, there are still questions to be answered about Mengesteab‘s death which occurred in suspicious circumstances. There is a rumour that Hagos Kisha who became chair person was behind the mysterious "suicide" of Mengestab Yisak.

Gaim states that Mengestab’s death and the subsequent disarray of the highly organized ELNA gave the EPLF and their lackey’s time to reorganize the movement. As expected, the reconstructed organization turned out to be among the most submissive and intolerant mass organization of the EPLF (Kibreab, 2007: 385).

Generally EFLNA cadres knew well that if they remained within the organization they would be soundly punished for the criticism of the leadership in the field. Indeed,  according to the EFLNA several more of their erstwhile comrades had been killed or imprisoned on returning to Eritrea. To mention a few examples:

• Tewdros Hadgebes was member EFLNA and took side with Mengesteab, after he was sent to field by Hagos Kisha. Tewdros was arrested and executed on 21st of Februray 1980 at Arag.  
  Petros Yohanes died under mysterious circumstances shortly after joining the EPLF in April 1978.
• Mogos Fasil, one of the founder of the EFLNA, was arrested shortly after joining the EPLF but he managed to escape from prison.
• Estifanos Dano, one of the founders of the EFLNA. After joining the EPLF, he was imprisoned and tortured, which contributed to him becoming chronically ill.\

Through the 1970s, many educated fighters became victims of imprisonment, torture and execution. Others, though not imprisoned, were psychologically intimidated by accusations:

• Ne Muhur HemamAleka, =Sickness of Intellectualism
• Neus Bourgia tebai Aleka =Petty bourgeois thinking/behaviour
• Muhur Tebelasi=Opportunistic intelligentsia
• Derbika Ketel=Class suicide etc
  

  In the  late 1970s, around the time  that Megesteab split from EFLNA, Abeba Haptoum  who had  joined the EPLF from the North America was psychologically intimidated by the accusations cited above. She explains in her interview with Arab-West Report, that  she joined the armed struggle as a matter of moral obligation. After finishing school in the United States, in 1976, she decided to join the Eritreans for Liberation in North America (EFLNA) movement, though this move was against her father’s wishes. After a year in the EFLNA, Abeba made the radical decision to travel to Eritrea in order to fight in the armed struggle.  She was assigned to a social affairs unit due to her educational background. Abeba elaborates on the fact that the political education she had during training was not Marxist oriented but social-democratic.
  

  To conclude

  Tragically, members of the EFLNA fell victim of the EPLF leadership in the late 1970s.  Its leader Mengistab Issac mysteriously "committed suicide" and the organisation withdrew from the EPLF.   One of its members,   Azieb who was active member of the EFLNA described   the EPLF in the following words:


"Shabia has a long history of killing its own people. Had the ELF-NA (6) been in the field in Eritrea, they too would have been Shabia‘s victims, just like Menk‘a" (Afwork, Azieb 2002)


Azeb Afowerki  adds:


"We were told that the only salvation for our future nation was the Shabia. Only the Shabia would create a just and democratic state, free from exploitation, where all Eritreans could participate equally". (Afworki, 2002)


After the death of Megesteab, many EFLNA members who had committed themselves to the movement felt their convictions shaken. Many had sacrificed their scholarship from some illustrious universities in the US. They had devoted their time and money to the movement. Many of them delayed commitment to having families and children, and to professional careers. From the beginning there was much confusion and disillusionment among members.
The Eritrean people must learn lessons from the betrayal of their hopes by the  EPLF leaders. The foundation of the EPLF  was  not only to free the country from the Ethiopian occupation but also  to  liberate the Eritrean people from  social oppression  and to ensure the sustainable development of the country through democratisation. These objectives remain to be realised.
