A Million of ways to burn taxpares' money.

It is a lot of money;yes,indeed. Zinawi,not only he has a burning tongue,he has hands to burn $2.3 millions of dollars on the back of Ethiopians.

Zinawians,beg $$$$$ in the name of Ethiopians,they use it for hemselves; take loans $$$$$$$$ in the name of Ethiopians,they use it for themselvs;get donation and aid $$$$$$ in the name of Ethiopians,they use it for themselves.It is the taxpayers foot the bill.Is it fair.Ethipians are victims of Zinawians' extravagance.
