Amhara Naftagnas to Destroy, Tegaru Hegemonists to Diminish and Oromo Republicans to Democratize Great Oromia!

Actually Ethiopia is Oromia. Oromos are at home from Barentu in Eritrea to Borana in Kenya and from Beegi of Sudan border to Barbara of Somalia. We can say that Ethiopia is simply Great Oromia and the Horn is Greater Oromia. Amhara Naftagnas tried to de-Oromize Ethiopia, thus destroyed Great Oromia. Tegaru hegemonists diminished Oromo land to the mini Oromia now presented as Oromia kilil excluding other Oromo territories from Barentu to Borana and from Beegi to Barbara. Now, it is up to the Oromo nationalists (Republicans) to reclaim Great Oromia. The incumbent (Oromo Prosperitans) led by Dr. Abiy are not suitable for such mission. Oromo Prosperitans are more pro-Amharanet than pro-Oromummaa. They are comfortable in keeping the existing domination of Amharanet/Amharigna. They are not different from Oromo elites who had power during Menelik (e.g Qusie Dinagde), Hailesillasie (e.g Yilma Dheresa), Derg (e.g Teferi Banti) and during Woyane ( e.g Nagaso Gidada). Oromo elites were always ruling, but promoting and using Amharigna at the cost of Oromiffa. Thus, Oromo elites and Amharanet were always in the palace, but undermining Oromumma. Nothing is new with the Prosperitans; here again, Oromo elites are ruling, but promoting Amharanet. I hope the next move of the Oromo should be to bring Oromummaa (not only Oromo elites) to the leadership position. Therefore, our effort should not be to save the diminished Oromia kilil, but to reclaim Great Oromia. To materalize this, Oromo Republicans need to take power in Finfinne palace and then promote Afaan Oromo to the primary working language of Ethiopia so that the country will be defacto Great Oromia.

Thanks to the resilient Oromo struggle, the century long Abyssian dominated Ethiopia is dead, never to revive again. From now on, Oromian led Ethiopia will flourish and thrive. During Derg time the EWP (Ethiopian Workers Party) was dominated by Amhara elites and it promoted an Assimilative Ethiopia. Then came Woyane with its EPRDF project in order to form an Apartheid Ethiopia. Now, the Oromo struggle killed both versions of Abyissinian system of domination. Dr. Abiy and his OLFite advisers like Ob. Leenco fostered the new Oromo led party – EPP – in order to have an Accomodative Ethiopia of all nations and nationalities with freedom, equality and justice. When we talk about Ethiopia, there are two main meanings coming to our mind:

1. Abythiopia (Abyssinian-Ethiopia, old Ethiopia, dying Ethiopia, past Ethiopia, pseudo-Ethiopia, dictatorial Ethiopia, Semetic Ethiopia, Abyssinian dominated Ethiopia…) and

2. Orothiopia (Oromian-Ethiopia, anew Ethiopia, emerging Ethiopia, future Ethiopia, true Ethiopia, democratic Ethiopia, Cushitic Ethiopia, Oromian led Ethiopia…).

The first is equivalent to Abyssinia and its authoritarian culture, whereas the second is the same to Oromia and its egalitarian culture. That is why, we talk about Ethiopia = Oromia in Oromo politics of new generation; while politics of old generation is all about the obsolete Ethiopia = Abyssinia.

Till now, Abesha elites loved Ethiopia and Oromo elites hated Ethiopia based on the first meaning. Both were led by the old mentality. When we look at the current political trend of the country, region, continent and the globe, Ethiopia in the first sense is on death process, whereas Ethiopia of the second meaning is the winning trend. Actually, in this second meaning, the Abesha may hate Ethiopia and the Oromo surely will love it, because Abythiopia shall definetly be transformed to Orothiopia! Surely, Abythiopia (both assimilative Ethiopia of Ankober elites and apartheid Ethiopia of Adwa elites) is dying and Orothiopia (in form of either Union Oromia / language based federalism as planned by EPP of Dr Abiy or Great Oromia / geography based federalism as envisioned by ECS of Dr. Berihanu) is growing. Is this trend clear to both Abyssinians and Oromians? I don’t think so! There is mixed songs going on. Abyssinians are still nostalgic about the dead Abythiopia, whereas Oromians are cherishing the new born Orothiopia. Of course, both are celebrating Ethiopia based on their respective vision and wish. Both Amhara’ EWP and Tegar’s EPRDF are gone. But Oromo’s EPP is the future. All Oromo nationals need to comprehend this. May Waaqa help us!
