DVው | የራሱን ለቅሶ ያየው ሰው | The Lottery: The Man Who Watched His Own Funeral — Ep. 10

ጋሽ ግርማ ተሾመ በአዲስ አበባ ገርጂ የሚያስተምር መምህር ነው። ከዓመታት በፊት የዲቪ ሎተሪ አሸንፎ ነበር — አሸናፊነቱን ግን የሸጠው ሌላ ሰው ነበር። ገዢው ታምራት ነበር፤ ስሙን ለብሶ ወደ ቨርጂኒያ ሄደ፣ ሶሲናን አገባ፣ አሥራ ሦስት ዓመት በሐቅ ኖረ። ከዚያ ታምራት ሞተ — በግርማ ስም። የሞተው ሰው ለቅሶ በፌስቡክ ሲሰራጭ፣ ግርማ በራሱ ግቢ ውስጥ ሆኖ ሁለት መቶ የሐዘን መግለጫዎችን አነበበ። «እኔ ግርማ ተሾመ ነኝ፤ ሕያው ነኝ» ሲል ጻፈ። ከለቅሶው ታገደ። A story about the DV lottery, a stolen name and a man who reads his own funeral on his phone. Girma Teshome, a teacher in Gerji, Addis Ababa, won a green-card slot years ago — and did not know it. The internet-café man Shimelis sold the win in a back room in Piassa to a rich importer's son named Tamrat, who left Ethiopia as "Girma", married Sosina in a Virginia church, and lived thirteen honest years inside a stolen life. When Tamrat dies, the funeral post is for Girma Teshome — and the real Girma, alive in his own compound, comments "I am alive." They delete it. Then they block him. Removed from his own funeral as a crank. What follows is not a movie: it is stamps. ዳኛ ሁኑ፦ ታምራት አሥራ ሦስት ዓመት በሐቅ ኖረ — ሐቁ ዋጋ አለው? እና ቤቱ፦ ሕጉ ግርማ እንዲወስድ ፈቅዶ ነበር፤ ትርሲት ግን «አይሆንም» አለች። እርስዎ ይወስዱት ነበር? በኮመንት ይንገሩን፤ ሁሉንም አነባለሁ። Your verdict: does thirteen honest years count for anything? And the house — the law said Girma could take it; Tirsit said no. Would you have taken it?
