WP:DUCK of the recently banned. Truth has been waging PoV edit wars on Ethiopian topics pushing a PoV favorable to the Tigray ethnic group and has used an obscure ethnic newsite, http://www.tigraionline.com, as a citation on Abiy Ahmed, Talk:Abiy Ahmed , and his own talkpage. He was banned today for his edit warring, and four hours later appears and cites to the same site on 2016 Ethiopian protests  making the same claim that the article lacks neutrality because it doesn't cover the (perceived) oppression of his favorite group. Additionally, after his pov-edits were reverted on Abiy Ahmed, Truth added a PoV tag to the article, claiming it was PoV because he couldn't keep his version. Truth was banned soon after and then Honesty comes in to the Abiy article and re-adds the PoV tag with no explanation.

This is probably a lot more evidence then necessary, but TL:DR compare their talk page posts:,. SWL36 (talk) 04:43, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

Tigrayan PoV pusher is back at Abiy Ahmed using weak sources or twisting reliable ones. here he adds dubious sourcing and PoV edits. here he distorts a source that states "almost a million have been displaced" by placing a figure of 1.5 million displaced in the article. The last 5 days of the article have the same pattern of large editing sprees, such as this one: where every edit is toward the goal of attacking the subject and insisting his favored group is being victimized.
