What is the story of the Gurage People and How did they fare from the King to the incumbent? What AI says in milder tone

Post by Odie » 28 Dec 2025, 20:42

The Gurage people, an ethnic group in south-central Ethiopia known for their agricultural and entrepreneurial skills, have experienced varying forms of marginalization and violence across different administrations.

Imperial Era (The King)

Marginalization: Historically considered an underclass, they faced social denigration and were often relegated to manual labor and petty trade in urban centers like Addis Ababa.
Political/Administrative: The conquest of Gurageland by Menelik II (late 19th century) led to the imposition of the repressive neftenya system, where land was dispossessed and given to the ruling nobility.

Land Loss: Resistance to imperial expansion resulted in "harsh treatment," including tributes and forced serfdom.
Cultural: They were historically labeled as "foreigners" and faced stigma for their labor-intensive occupations.
Derg Administration (1974–1991)

Economic: While the Derg's land reform theoretically ended the imperial landlord system, the regime's socialist policies and economic mismanagement led to widespread hardship.
Violence and Imprisonment: Like many other groups, Gurage individuals were victims of the Red Terror, characterized by political killings, arbitrary arrests, and torture of those perceived as "anti-revolutionary."

Social: The Derg’s villagization and resettlement programs disrupted traditional rural Gurage life and community structures.

TPLF/EPRDF Era (1991–2018)

Political/Administrative: The TPLF-led coalition implemented ethnic federalism, which some critics argue sidelined the Gurage politically. They were grouped within the diverse Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPR), which many Gurage activists felt diluted their self-administration rights and political voice compared to larger ethnic regions.

Marginalization: Despite their economic success in Addis Ababa, they lacked a dedicated regional state, leading to persistent demands for their own region (a movement that intensified towards the end of this era).

Abiy Ahmed Administration (2018–Present)

Political Conflict: The Gurage’s longstanding demand for their own regional state (separate from the SNNPR) has led to significant friction with the federal government.
Violence and Ethnic Attacks: In 2020, Gurage people in the Oromia region were reportedly targeted by "Oromo youth" groups in attacks that some observers characterized as a form of ethnic cleansing or targeted violence.
Imprisonment and Torture: Amid protests for regional statehood, there have been reports of mass arrests and heavy-handed responses by security forces to suppress dissent within Gurage areas.

Administrative: The federal government’s restructuring of the SNNPR into new clusters (such as the Central Ethiopia Regional State) has been met with resistance from many Gurage, who see it as a denial of their right to full self-administration.

The Gurage need to be more assertive for their right and self preservation with in the context of unified democratic Ethiopia. They have to work on plan B as well if the currently Arab conquered and subjugated Ethiopia breaks apart like a clay pot. You can not sit lame duck and be a fan of the manipulator in power hoping everything will be right.
Sodo/Kistane can keep its onlyFan club for OPDO/OLF/PP until it is swallowed whole by Oromuma!
Gurage has to sit up and plan its future instead of toiling and hoping for the best in a country where one ethnic group screws up plunders, and steals everything. Organizing and staying ready is the best decision whether Ethiopia continues or not. It is important to work and align with other strategically important ethnics that believe in respirocal respect and that hold similar vision for the future. It is important to train the youth in basic life defence and have self defence equipments. Any one who believes in Gurage marginalization and its salvation but working otherwise, specially subjugating the region to Oromuma should be condemned and action should be taken as necessary. It is shame for Gurage to run its media in Oromo broad casing service and making an Oromo its regional leader!

If you think you are a Gurage, stop swindling; stop lying; stop your garbage post and think critically when you post.
Sodo has done enough damage in the name if Gurage because you are close to Addis. Now many will hate Sodo because of your stupid posts on this forum!

Brother Odie,

I feel you. Gurage has existential threat more than Amhara. When Gurage elders chose to ease tension with OPDO-PP two years ago, I completely understood them. I said that they have chosen this because Abiy & Shimelis threatened them to do the same thing to the 1 million Gedeo people. The Galla now has the bank and unlimited Ethiopian resources be it ENDF or State Media and Security apparatus. I understood the Galla has no moral boundary if they chose to destroy every Gurage. I think Restu Yerdaw was heard the saying the same thing in the leaked audio recently

But for those Sodo listros who want to hide in Gurage and attack Amharas, it is beyond the survival mode. It is intentional to harm and cause pain on our people. But you are doing a great job exposing them and we learnt to separate these snakes from the good people of Gurage.

In as separate note, I agree with you that every ethnicity should organize itself and save itself from the threat of extinction. That is a natural god given right to exist.

You are right Misraq,
I heard the leaked video.
If Oromo threatens Gurage, it does not mean the Gurage leaders should play lame duck. There are a lot of ways to play a political game safely. As you said Gurage has existential threat that was partly protected by the stable country that was there in the distant past. Oromuma is not going to be there forever. The country is in intensive care unit and plan B is a must to find out who could be long term strategic partner that could range from the north or South. I really don’t like the way the Grage politicians play the game with Oromuma. One can simply say now Gurage is annexed by Oromuma. Just wanted this fact to come out to sunshine. Actually even heard the Gurage leaders in place are so corrupt, investors have to pay for any investment they carry out in the region. These are puppets including the region head who is an oromo who grew up among gurage. I have no idea how this happened!

I said that they have chosen this because Abiy & Shimelis threatened them to do the same thing to the 1 million Gedeo people. The Galla now has the bank and unlimited Ethiopian resources be it ENDF or State Media and Security apparatus. I understood the Galla has no moral boundary if they chose to destroy every Gurage. I think Restu Yerdaw was heard the saying the same thing in the leaked audio recently

But for those Sodo listros who want to hide in Gurage and attack Amharas, it is beyond the survival mode. It is intentional to harm and cause pain on our people. But you are doing a great job exposing them and we learnt to separate these snakes from the good people of Gurage.

In as separate note, I agree with you that every ethnicity should organize itself and save itself from the threat of extinction. That is a natural god given right to exist.

At the end when everything said and done, there is a big potential for two things to happen:

But first this: If Abiye was serious about Ethiopia he would have changed the ethnic constitution and abolish the Liyu Force of Killil 7 years ago. Abiye likes to copy the TPLF because deep down he believes in them. He will rule with the current Oromo domination until it is over and switch to independence when it is over, just like the TPLF.

1) PP will fall with a combination of mass revolt and FANO campaign. It will move to its base with the Oromo Liyu and either it will fight for a come back or independence. Just like the TPLF, it has its flag and its own army.

2) FANO is Ethiopia. With its brand, the 3 colours Ethiopian flag. FANO is well organized to inherit ENDF and it will do just that. Ethnic constitution will be dismantled and Liyu force will be abolished. Ethnic politics, ethnic slurs and ethnic discrimination will be outlawed. A new constitution will be drafted and we will move on.

Obviously, Oromo and Tigray will not accept the change. The prudent thing is to accommodate their request for independence and work for loose federation. Just like what Russia did. The Ethiopian federation: Oromo, Tigray and Ethiopia. In Ethiopian terms with clear boundaries in economy and politics.

Gurage should never have behaved crazy like this. They can simply stay neutral and lie low instead of burning all the bridges as if there is no tomorrow. They are now vulnerable for Oromo takeover. Shimelese is working hard to make it happen. Remember, the Oromos worked 500 years for this opportunity. Now, the Guraghies seem to accept that even they don’t nobody is gone give a f about it. Just watch. Unlike Derg and the TPLF, this administration will be the most negative consequential government.

In my opinion, Gurage people uniquely suffered under TPLF-Woyane and now, OLF-Orommuma.

*** TPLF literally cleared out Gurages from Addis Ababa business centers - systematically take over and gave away to Tigres

**** OLF-PPP is getting worse. Demanded Gurages to surrender their identity and strictly observe Aba-Geda tradition - to decorate their forehead with ወሸላ.


******* What is very interesting: During Tigre-woyane, Dr. Fekadu Gedamu for instance was the pioneer
; and now under Orommuma, Biranu Nega and his followers like Huresa and Dama are active.

I am wondering if the AI even got this right:
As we know, the Gurage region has one of the highest population densities, and arable land has long been scarce—especially in the medieval period. Given these conditions, it is unlikely that the region developed the kind of tenant (serf)–landlord exploitative relations that many Amhara provinces experienced and suffered from

No, AI did not get it wrong. People who grew up in the region can tell you the truth. Up until land was taken by the Socialist regime, the land was variously owned by the Nobility. Mostly Gurage themselves but aligned with the system and paying taxes from their spoil. The poor peasant was a victim of serfdom. Tax was exorbitant. The landless farmer had to till a land owned by a nobility for a small return. Don't be deceived by the density of the region which I believe was created by past wars, Oromo migration etc. Neftegna from other ethnics usually resided in bigger cities and reinforced their rules through local nobility. However, everybody at least had a country and peace which is lost now. There is a general grievance that Gurage could not achieve self-administration of their region. Culturally suppressed including its language in self-motivated way to accept the ruling class culture. Of course, good cultures of other ethnics always made it to the acceptance of the ruling class. Some Gurage dialects such as MESMES died out. Politically Gurage got alienated (by the systems as well as self-motivated redirection to business as Jews did in Europe). Why do I raise these? Because I believe Gurage has to be self-conscious about politics, the right to self-administration and preservation of useful culture (not damaging ones) and be active in the countries major issues outside of business too (I am not talking about Sodo Gurage that always favor piggy backing ruling systems to get benefit than raise major Gurage issues). I am not suggesting Gurage should dwell on what happened in the past like the Oromos and Tigrayans are doing. Gurage has to work to redeem its current and future status including the right to defend itself in all peaceful ways possible and defend itself in all ways possible when its existence is threatened. The elites come and go with their evil rules and ideology, but the poor people are the ones who carry the brunt of their evil experiment in all regions of Ethiopia. By the way, believe me, Gurage never had a right politician representing the broad interest of the grassroot people. Biramtu Nega is a person who grew up in Nazareth, basically he is just one of the Oromumas and he told Gurage he is not a Gurage. Those who tried to echo back the cry of the poor people were abused, imprisoned and killed by Abiy regime and their parties were disbanded, hunted. Huresa of course is old fa@rt EPRP, mad socialist propaganda slogan writer with flights of ideas; just forget it. He is not a Gurage too. The person called Dama is a useless good for nothing idiot Muslim mixing bigotry and toxic Islam false activism. There sure are people who deliberate on all the issues raised but as it is often Ethiopian culture, many prefer to stay silent or hate to be ethnic oriented (in favor of Ethiopian ideal for a country) as it is often a problem in Amhara society too. That position is dangerous as there is no problem in advocating for the people you came from specially for the equitable representation in the country's affairs.

You left for a higher moral war, for a higher purpose of humanity. To liberate Amara. A Gurage Fano for Amara. To serve as a slave in the kitchens of Amara. To feed Fano fighters. To cook and wash for Zemene Kasse. Sorry, is this ethnic bigotry? You know best!!

Stay there. You have no place in Gurage.
