In the first years after Eritrea declared independence in 1991, there were several occassions in which citizens challenged the leadership of EPLF, the seemingly ‘undisputed hero’ of liberation. The challenge came from all corners, including, from within the EPLF’s rank and file, but from historically rival organizations such as the ELF, as well. These challenges and protests against EPLF, now the PFDJ, still continue after more than 30 year, today. 

The video points out that it was a missed chance that it was not political organizations, who organized or led these protests, but individuals or tiny groups. It argues that this fact has been and still is the strategic shortcoming of Eritreans to force the current regime to hand-over power to representatives of the citizens. Political parties have not, so far, taken upon themselves to make campaigning for their respective political power in government, their priority.
