The Noonnoo massacre has once again exposed the moral decay within Oromia’s political leadership and Ethiopia’s federal establishment. When 27 innocent lives — mostly children and the elderly — are slaughtered, yet no voice of outrage rises from those sworn to defend the people, silence becomes complicity. The tragedy is not just the massacre itself, but the cancerous indifference of leaders who have traded conscience for comfort and turned Oromia’s pain into background noise.
