What a change?

"Revolutionary Democracy" is substituted by "Developmental Democracy" as the 'core ideology' of ‪#‎EPRDF‬, Bereket Simon reportedly told party members. Does the change involves an ideological or strategic shift? No one knows except few such as Bereket. Who and when decided to make the change? Certainly, we haven't heard if the general assembly of the Front discussed the matter. Such a quite and 'unceremonious' change of 'ideology' or strategy, if it is so, is not new to TPLF, and by extension EPRDF. But how about the multitudes of party members? Do they care? But there must be another reason to explain why the change, which in other cases could have been a big news, took place without much discussion among the cadres and public alike. May be, the change is only in name. What is in name?!
