        Teddy Afro kings of Amhara domination superiority. Praises all kings of Amhara but failed to recognize others. Such a hypocrite!

        Be open minded and try to go through his all albums. He preachs unity and praises our great fathers who fought and United us(all ethnicity).

        I tried to be open minded and I start to draw parallels between teddy and Trump. They're both nationalist and stand for "alternative facts"

        They want to force him into exile. Killing him is too troublesome. Imagine what the life of a regular citizen is!
