Oromo’s Best Formula: Own Democratic Ethiopia and Use Panafrican Utopia !
Oromo politics has definately shown a paradigm shift from forging republic Oromia to fostering democratic Ethiopia, i.e der facto Oropia ( Oromumma led Country). Such Ethiopia in Oromo terms shall use Afaan Oromo as primary working language, promote Gadaa democracy in a modernized form in the whole country and consolidate a legitimate leadership of the Oromo in Finfinne palace. Opting for this bigger territory is more beneficial for the Oromo than opting Ford the smaller Oromia. Oromo nationalists need to follow this vision and be influential in the Horn in particular and in the whole of Africa in general. I hope that Oromo elites in the OLF, OFC and even in OPP will have consensus on this vision to lead Ethiopia and promote panafricanism. Finfinne (Oromo’s heart) being the capital of both Ethiopia and Africa is a God given chance for the Oromo to play a very influential role in politics of both the country and the continent. The Oromo nation being free from the hitherto domination of Abyssinian elites is a good precedence for all African language groups to be free and excercise their self-rule within a future United States of Africa (USAf) with Finfinne as its capital city.

Re: Oromo’s Best Formula: Own Democratic Ethiopia and Use Panafrican Utopia !
Nowadays, an interesting Finfinne vs Addisaba dispute between Oromo and Amhara activists is going on. I thought the Oromo are liberated to decide also on our capital city – Finfinne. Now, neither Amhara nor Tegaru elites have power in Caffee Araara palace to hinder the Oromo from applying our plan. Unless otherwise OPP (the party in power) is pro Abesha and anti Oromo. Why should Oromo activists now fight against the Amharas over Finfinne, instead of just implementing the emancipation plan of the whole Oromia, including Finfinne? I thought that the move and speech of Dr. Abiy during his visit to the Horn of African countries showed that his vision is to liberate Finfinne from non-Oromo occupation forces and foster an economic and political integration of the Horn (Greater Oromia) in particular and that of Africa (Greatest Oromia) in General. It seems, the Oromo are yet to struggle for liberation of Finfinne against the ruling party – OPP.

After freedom of Finfinne, we can have the following layers of Oromia to be administrated from its core – Finfinne.
1. – Greater Oromia = Cushitic Ethiopia: Ob Leenco Lataa is advocator of an integrated Horn of Africa as a common home, being concious that the real Oromia includes all areas, where the Oromo live, in that region. Realizing this Oromia may be Oromo’s far future politics of higher confidence.
2. – Great Oromia = New Ethiopia: Dr Marara Gudina strives to consolidate the whole Ethiopia as a wide home of the Oromo, where Oromo culture and language will prevail without any discrimination and marginalization. We can have this politics of high confidence in the near future.
3. – Intermediate Oromia: Ob Galasa is determined to librate this map of Oromia as separate country of the Oromo. This seems to reflect our politics of intermediate confidence at the present.
4. – Small Oromia = OLF’s Oromia: Ob Dawud’s Oromia is what most of Oromo nationalists seem to accept as legitimate land of the Oromo for self-rule. But, how long should we entertain this politics of low confidence, which we had in the near past.
5. – Smaller Oromia = OPP’s Oromia: whether he believes in this map or not, the current Oromia governed by Ob Lammaa is smaller than that of the others. Are we ready to live with this politics of lower confidence belonging to the far past?

Now, the important question to be answered is that how can Finfinne be liberated totally and for which layer of Oromia should the Oromo struggle? I thought that Dr. Abiy is even for the realization of Greatest Oromia as the outer most layer (African Federal Government) being administered from its capital Finfinne (Smallest Oromia as the seed core). But, unfortunatelly, we are still not sure if Finfinne can be declared as Oromo’s citiy by the ruling OPP.
Re: Oromo’s Best Formula: Own Democratic Ethiopia and Use Panafrican Utopia !
This is really disappointing! The best motto of Oromo politics should be to liberate and own the smallest Oromia (i.e Finfinne) in order to transform and use all the layers including the greatest Oromia (i.e Africa)! Is OPP against such Oromo move? Why should the Oromo still struggle to emancipate Finfinne, where there is neither Amhara domination nor Tegaur rule? Is OPP doing proxy hegemony of Abyssinian elites? Are we really liberated or still under oppression with only window dressing of Caffee Araara (OPP continuing Oromo suppression job of the Abesha)? It is now optimal time for genuine Oromo nationalidts to come to gether and consolidate Oromo leadership in order to build democrsatic Oropia and promote panafrican prosperity. I wish to see Dr. Abiy as liberator of the Oromo and that he tries to re-Oromize Finfinne, which will radiate its light of Oromumma at all layers of (Oromia, Oropia, the Horn, Africa & the Glob)! Otherwise, aluta continua (the struggle for total liberation of the Oromo and Oromia including Finfinne will go on)!
