Yohannes Tikabo (born 1974) is an Eritrean singer-songwriter. Once an advocate of the national government, Yohannes emigrated from Eritrea in October 2013, while on a tour in the United States sponsored by the People's Front for Democracy and Justice, Eritrea's ruling party.[1] A song he subsequently released on YouTube, "Hadnetna" denouncing the ruling party has since gone viral.[2]
