OLF’s Rainbow Confederation as Middle Position in Ethiopian Political Spectrum!
No question that the poletical spectrum in Ethiopia is based on Amhara-Oromo conflict or cooperation. Slowly, political elites in Ethiopia (Great Oromia) are coming to their sense. The attempt done by the OLF of Ob. Daud in forging and consolidating PAFD (the Peoples’ Alliance for Freedom and Democracy) is one of the right steps in the right direction. Thanks to the farsighted OLF leaders and the Ex-CUD representatives in Diaspora, who started in 2006 an innovative spirit of coming together for common benefit, the hitherto quasi irreconcilable Amhara and Oromo elites started to approach each other. Civilized mentality started to rule the political game between the two groups. They seem to agree on the middle position suggested by the OLF. There are five positions in the spectrum of Amhara-Oromo competition in the country:
– the far right is ‘Amharanet dominated geographical federation’, i.e defacto Great Amharia persued by EZEMA.
– the middle right is ‘Amharanet dominated ethnic federation’, i.e equivalent to Union Amharia entertained by EPP.
– the middle position is ‘rainbow confederation’ in the form of a voluntary union of free nations as stated in politica program of the OLF, i.e realization of Gadaa Oromia in a union of free nations.
– the middle left is ‘Oromummaa led ethnic federation’, i.e the same to Union Oromia envidooned by OFC.
– the far right is ‘Oromummaa led geographical federation’, i.e practically Great Oromia promoted by Fayyis et al.
Now, the whole struggle is between the far right forces and the later three groups (middle, middle left and far left). EPP of Dr. Abiy is trying to balance the two camps and to keep the status quo. Interestingly, the Amhara branch in the EPP tends to move to the far right position of EZEMA. Time will tell us how long this Amhara group will stay in the EPP of Dr. Abiy. It seems that the Amhara wing of EPP will shift to the right position of 'Amharanet dominated federation', whereas the Oromo wing may move to the left position of 'Oromumma led federation'. Between the two is the optimal middle position of the OLF to realize the rainbow confederation of free nations.
