By SAJA HINDI | The Denver Post | Published: December 29, 2020 DENVER (Tribune News Service) Denver area resident Mohammed Warid is monitoring the political conflict in Ethiopia at least, as much as he can with a communication blackout in parts of the country. The chairman of the Oromo Community of Colorado is worried about his family, and for him, that includes all those living in the Oromia region in Ethiopia. He s at least been able to speak to loved ones, unlike those struggling to reach their families and get news about the northern Tigray region. Under the latest political regime, people are suffering; they re living in fear; they re being imprisoned for their ideologies; they re being tortured and killed, he said.
