Ethiopian singer, from across the city, did
not get the chance to enter either the
courtroom or the compound of the Supreme
Court, they patiently waited long for the
decision to reach their ears. As the news,

morning of February 18, 2009, the crowed
applauded and chanted. Most were drawn to
tears with happiness while others shouted:
“Victory!”
