Tamrat Layne: The Prime Minister of Ethiopia (1991 – 1995) that the country and the world has forgotten :
Tamrat Layne, was the
first Prime Minister of Ethiopia
after Mengistu Haile Mariam was overthrown. He led the Ethiopian Peoples’
democratic Movement that later became Amhara National Democratic Movement which
is one of the coalition partners in EPRDF. He was the first Prime Minister of
the Transitional Ethiopian Government from June 1991 – August 1995. He was
succeeded by Meles Zenawi and became deputy prime minister (August 22 1995 – October 1996). He was accused of
corruption and imprisoned. He served 12 years in solitary confinement before
his release, in 2008. He claims he has seen Jesus when in prison and has thus
become a devout Christian, sine then.

His fate is actually similar to that of General Mohamed Najib in Egypt. General Mohamed Najib was the first president of Egypt after the 1952 revolution, Disagreements with Gamal Abdel Nasser led to his forced removal from power and was under house arrest for 18 years, where he lived under very poor conditions. He was released by President Sadat in 1972.
