OF DIFFERENT PERSONS It states
in the book that it was written 2 years after the
liberation of Eritrea. The 10 were already martyred
for 14 years. Not known where it was printed. It states
that it is free to duplicate and distribute. Got from
the archives of the Eritrean revolution. In 1978 a
high official from the front came to Jedda and held
a meeting to the people. The representative said in
the seminar that they had destroyed a dangerous group,
and with fek-era (boasting). It was later all in the
leadership started denying he or the other was not
present in the case. That was when they saw they had
no support from the people. They did not name the
persons or details but that the dangerous force was
destroyed.
Their supporters in Sudan, Yemen,
Saudia and those undiscovered inside the field were
told whom the persons were.
Mohammed Mansur’s brother was
a good singer with the song “Simbil –
Simbil”, Ahmed Mansur, from Ginda.
Omer Suba’s wife and daughter
were living in Kessela. She was told there.
These brave fighters who sacrificed
their lives for the liberation of their people and
being one of the first fighters should have been known
what their aim or wish was. Instead they were killed
in unjust way and silenced forever. They have the
right to be remembered for the sacrifice they did.
These and many others who were bravely
fighting should be remembered in history. We all learn
from history of our past. A front tells of the hardships,
actions, events, experiences etc and these and others
should be part of the history.
The secret was buried with them.
And ELF did not proceed long after them. Their supporters
were dispersed.
These same leadership are now in
relationship with Ethiopia, just as they did with
the Derg.
(These men knew what the stakes were
that they could lose their lives and yet they were
determined to advance with their plan. They could
have lived abroad and built good lives for themselves.
Many brave fighters have sacrificed
their lives for the sake of their beloved people and
save their comrades. Stories have been told verbally
and not much in writing. There were also stories of
fighters being killed by their own front and since
then considered as traitors or sectarians.
The story of these men was part of
the struggle history and it can be an example of one
part of our history. )

Mohammed Omer was never afraid. He
was wounded while shooting at a general in middle
of Asmera.
The leadership of still now are again
splitting the oppositions.
The Jebha leaders
were wooing Sabbe so as to finish EPLF. They were
black naming Sabbe and when Sabbe split with EPLF,
Jebha gave him place inside Jebha administrated areas
to hit EPLF. This was the main reason for the Falul
movement.
