Ten years old Eyana Mesfin wrote a letter to President Obama regarding Andargachew Tsige.

This letter posted by Hello! I am 10 year old Eyana Mesfin from Centennial, Colorado. I was wondering if you could do something about the crisis in Ethiopia. Andargachew Tsige has been kidnapped during a flight from Dubai to Eritrea. On June 23rd, at a stop in Yemen, they captured him and took him to Ethiopia, his birth country. He is a citizen of Britain, and left Ethiopia in 2005, following protests of the nation’s elections. He is married and has twins, both 7. Andargachew has been captured before and tortured, but he escaped blind in one eye. The Prime Minister of Ethiopia, Hailemariam Desalegn, has labeled his activist group, Ginbot 7, as a terrorist group. They are said to currently be torturing him, which is against human right laws. Millions of Ethiopians are frustrated that nothing is being done. Please help Andargachew, for he is an important figure in Ethiopian hope. Millions of Ethiopians have fled Ethiopia due to poor leadership. His kids don’t even know about his capture, all they think is that he is visiting Ethiopia. Please help Andargachew, I know you’re busy but please, if you can, have Ethiopia free Andargachew Tsige, and rule Ethiopia better. Millions of Ethiopians from Australia to Europe to America, can return to their wonderful, beautiful home.
Thanks,
Eyana Mesfin
