All countries that Followed Ethnic Federalism have either went through hell getting out of it or have been disintegrated. Yes you may say India, Nigeria are strong countries with Ethnic Federalism but they give precedence to their peoples. Their constitution starts with the phrase "We the peoples of... Not we the Ethnic... "
The Fact that Ethiopia is still intact is a miracle. The fact that most Ethiopians Still love Ethiopia, that is a work of God.
Retaining the Current federal structure is like playing with fire.
For the first time, we have a real chance to choose whats best and we should do whatever we can to make it count.
The thing abt returning to territorial federalism, its good but what would an oromo brother say if you divide the region into 3. What would Amharas say if you combine some part of benishangul, Oromo and Amhara parts and make it one fedrated region.
As the way Ethnic Federalism got into Ethiopia, it has to be phased out. Radical changes are bad, they may bring uncertainties.
The way out is not easy but because TPLF is dead. It'll be a whole lot easier
