Mr. Abdu Osman Humadin, an Eritrean diplomat who worked in the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Eritrea has defected to the United Kingdom.
There are also rumours that at least two other stuff members of the Ministry are missing since last October. So far, we are able to confirm the name and post of Mr. Abdu Osman Humadin through our multiple sources who knew him in Libya and Cairo.
demo.archive.assenna.com sources said that he was one of the qualified, multilingual and dynamic members of the department of Desks (political affairs department). According to the information, he escaped to Sudan and from there made his way to the United Kingdom, in November 2013.
Mr. Abdu Osman Humadin was travelling frequently to the North and East African countries as part of the Ministry’s delegation and was an expert on the Middle East and African Affairs. He was also in charge of CEN-SAD dossier.
One of our sources who defected from the same ministry before him said that Mr Abdu joined the Ministry in 2003 as a ‘National service’. He also revealed that he was almost frozen after the Forto incident.
The sources said that the PFDJ ambassador in the UK, Tesfamichael Gerahtu (Wedi Gerahtu) and his collaborators have contacted some individuals in the Eritrean community requesting his address and telephone number in an attempt to blackmail him from speaking out openly against the regime’s policies.
Some indicated that he had good relations with Ambassador Osman Jeme and others who are being detained in Hegdef’s prison without any judicial process after the Forto Incident of 21/01/2013.
Although there are reports that many mid-level government officials have fled the country after the ‘Forto Movement’ for fear of the regime’s reprisal and harassment, this is the first confirmed defection of a diplomat from the PFDJ after the Forto incident and Lampadusa tragedy.

Eritrea as a nation is long dead.
Ato Abdu Osman, well come to freedom. This is a real liberation than anything you know. The America, the England and the the Ferenji West that your masters in Asmara and the Arab world try to bash in Tv-Ere and in Cairo Monitor are far better and descent than the evils you left behind.
Wish you all the best
Here is the Eritrea you left behind described by the best minds of the Horn of Africa: Yosief Ghebrehiwet,
“The Somalized life
The anarchy built into the totalitarian system of Eritrea is to be witnessed among all population groups and at all levels: prisoners that don’t pass through the court system and don’t know why they have ended up in prison or when they will be released, if ever (this anarchy can probably be better reflected by the atsnihaley phenomenon, where a colonel or other higher officer entrusts a prisoner, usually for personal reasons, to a prison outside his turf and forgets him/her for years.); parents who have lost control of their children, first when Shaebia takes over their upbringing from their teenage years to adulthood and, next, when many of them end up stranded in refugee camps or other worse killing fields (The Mediterranean, the Sinai, etc.); fathers in the indefinite national service having no control over the welfare of their families, with their children growing up in women-headed households in their ever-extended absence; women folk facing a grim future, many raising kids on their own and many others with very slim prospect of marriage (given the mass exodus of the male youth); students with no prospects to pursue their education, no jobs to look forward to and no married life to envision; religious people who lost control over their spiritual life, denied as they are to freely practice their religion; religious leaders of outlawed churches that have lost control over the guidance of their parishes; teachers who have lost control over the classroom, with the regime taking over the “teaching” of the students in militarized institutions; businessmen that could not plan ahead with certainty given the unpredictable nature of the regime in monopolizing or bankrupting or even outlawing their trade; peasants that have no control over their land, its products, and their labor given the predatory nature of the regime and the fact that they are most likely to serve the longest in the national service; and, above all, a whole generation of youth indefinitely stranded in the middle of nowhere.”

Hawesha aka Bokre
Your master YG is an Eritrean-identity hater Ethiopianist. An apologist of Ethiopian occupation.
DIA and his rootless, heartless supporters are mostly people like you and YG.
You have problem not with the dictatorship but with Eritrea and it’s people.
You think this the right time to insult Eritrea. Shame on all rootless ‘seb beles’ who pose as Eritreans !!
Bahre March 4, 2014
you are typical shabea and hemeret of YPFDJ who lack moral and rationality.
Abdu you did great job. I know he has a lot to say but I can blame him for his silence right now, because, we know the consequenceto ………..
He is one of the good Eritreans not like Monkey and Yemane Gebreab who can’ count their linage one step back. I am definitely sure, If they do that they will surely get their origins in Hawzen or some where in india……etc

My mother use to say: A person who gets fat during periods of food shortage is called “halay” (fathead) – halayat eat alone while their people are starving!
It is a sin what you are saying. But halay, enjoy your last meals – you will be charged soon!

I am in sudan, and since this news posted, I am meeting a lot of people who know him and they speak of good things about him. May he will be the the starter for the up-coming flood of feeing officials.
suleiman- you are typical shabia or pseudo shabia who orchestrating drama to convince them to get some credits at the cost of others.
abyssinia March 3, 2014
. .He participated in high profile meetings, however, he eas getting only 500 Nakfa.. To be politically naive is the worst thing in life. This is very weak argument. The military commanders have been participating in cabinet meetings. By the same token, are those individuals have the qualifications to take part?
Bahre March 4, 2014
Abyssinia you are naive. you just trying to undermine the person. Graduation from Asmara University is can only prof his qualification, as there is no and there was no any other university in the country.
behegdef memrehi tewahibuka; ktedakhimo tefetin alokha!!!!!!!!!
you are naive and pessimist. I read all the comments and no one questions his qualities and qualifications apart from you and the other stupid like who is writting by the name of suleiman.

Danny March 5, 2014

It would have been good if he share with us what he know and seen.
