Why Gurage has not established a liberation front

Post by Dama » 31 May 2026, 17:58

A narrative of colonization, oppression, discrimination, alienation and marginalization has not been developed. A reality that exists but not written on paper, spoken on radio or the visuals not shown on videos. A silence and a blind eye to Gurage realities not just by a few but all those who could have or should have. A conspiracy? It may very well be by a greater force that is invisible.

By the way Horus also put them in their place one by one.

We all remember how Zeberga Odus was insulting and harassing the much older Horus 24/7. Calling the SODOs and Horus all kinds of names.
Fast forward to today and Zeberga Odus worship Horus.

Doma never tried to engage in a direct debate with Horus. He is just not a match to the goofiest old man. As Horus called him, the Wahhabis hide behind Gurage nationalism to dodge the wrath of chelfitu.

You are right. Sodo seems the educated elite and the business class. Mesqan & Enor are just primitive, emotional & brittle. When you call Sodo a listro, it doesn't hurt them for an obvious reason. Mesqan & Enor are so brittle and emotional biaches. Sodo geographically,. psychologically and religiously closer to Neftegnas. Their only weakness is ገንዘብ።

I hate to lose even a peny out of carelessness such as failing to fix a hole in your pocket. But, if you fail to fix the hole due to circumstances out of your control, you just let the smallest money denomination go wherever it wanted to go.

Kistane Sodo is only 9.75% Gurage. In the larger affairs of Gurage, in the narrative Gurage creates and strives to achieve, Kistane Sodo has not mattered a lot. We let them do whatever whatever they wanted to within their right such as stop fighting Menelick in 1878 unilaterally and get out of Gurage Zone to create their own East Gurage Zone. Kistanes are not true Gurage. If you go back in history to the 17th. century, for example refer to map of Abyssinia made by the Portuguess Jesuit Father Almeida in 1645, Gurage and Alamale exist separately. Historically, they are not Gurage. They were known as Alamalle, then adopted the Aymelell after dropping Alamalle, and then dropped Aymelell and adopted Sodo, and Kistane after Menelick's Orthodoxic crusade. This a group that changes its name according to the wind of the times.

By establishing a Gurage liberation movement, it's not going to be against the Q*mata people. It will never be against people. There will be no one statement which would accuse the ordinary people of Armadillo, Tigrey, Oromo, etc. It will only critique the political, economic and social policies of the Ethiopian gov. It will condemn discrimination, oppression and exploitation, alienation and marginalization of Gurage by the Ethiopian gov. It will condemn the gov's violations of Gurage's human and and democratic rights, including the associating Shia Muslims in Sunny majority Gurage with Iran and Pentes with imperialist USA in the Orthodox and Catholic mix. Gurage doesn't hate Amara armadillo q*matas, I repeat. A Gurage liberation movement has no bones against the Armadillo herd. Gurage's enemy will remain the tyrannical dictatorship of the genocidal Ethiopian government of Abiy Ahmed.

If Gurage had a liberation movement, it would have a representation on the round table of TPLF, OLF, Sidama, ONLF and Obang's Anyuak in the creation of the new regions out of the midget Haile's provinces.

Not only Silte would not have exited Gurage, we would have kept Gurage territories such as Weliso, Amaya, Goro, Wenchi, Tulu Bolo, Zway, Dacha & Malka, Sodo Jida and Seden Sodo.

Very importantly, the liberation movement would have forged a standard Gurage language for common use.

It would also have compiled the history of Gurage upto antiquities, using documents and acheology. As of now Gurage hisyory is anything but folktales. Even that the stories of fitawraris and dejazmaches who were servants of Menelick II the genocider and Haile the midget pedo.

It would have established common economic centers across all Gurage borders to meet the needs of Gurages in the border areas so as to guard their identities from being pulled to Hadiya and Oromo. The Gurage liberation movement would have saved Mesmes, one of the original signatories in the formation of the 7bet, from absorption by bantu Hadiya

Gurage democratic unity movment will safegurad the equal citizenship rights of armadillo, Mareqo and Qebena minorities who came to live on Gurage lands in the 19th and 18th centuries respectively. Their histories, languages and cultures will be protected under the law. Land rights will be adjudicated based on available facts. Migrations to Gurage from the Armadillo country, from bantu Hadiya and Oromo will follow federal and Gurage laws.

Gurage businesses, music merchants and social media grifters are requested to promote values that unite Gurage and refrain from working against the aspiration of a united Gurage.

Listro Dama,

I will wait on Horus' confirmation on that. But, all I know is that Sodo Kistane being highly influencial and are often the face of Gurage. 2nd to them are 7Bet. The rest of you Mesqo, Enor, Cheha....etc are low grade listros.

As to the liberation front you are fantasizing, if you make it, I will cross dress and go out on the street. I.know.you are coward bunches and wouldn't dare risk your life.

According to the 1994 census, the six largest ethnic groups reported in Gurage Zone were the Sebat Bet Gurage (45.02%), the Silt'e (34.81%), the Soddo Gurage (9.75%), the Mareqo or Libido (2.21%), the Amhara (2.16%), and the Kebena (1.82%); all other ethnic groups made up 4.21% of the population. Sebat Bet Gurage is spoken as a first language by 39.93%, 35.04% Silt'e, 10.06% spoke Soddo Gurage, 3.93% spoke Amharic, 2.16% spoke Libido, and 1.93% spoke Kebena; the remaining 6.95% spoke all other spoken languages.
Very few of Kistane Sodo join the Ethiopian military unlike 7bet.

They hate military service as it is hazardous but necessary. They dropped their guns when Menilick bribed them without informing Gurage. Same in 2023, they sabotaged the Gurage struggle to get its federal region.

Sabotage does not have a better definition than these two.

Horus,

አንተ የምትለው ዋሃብያው ዳኤሳ (ዳማ) ከሚለው በጣም ተዓማናነት አለው። እርግጠኛ ነኝ ዳማ ሶዶ ክስታኔን ጥርሱ ውስጥ የከተተው ክስታኔ ኦርቶዶክስ ስለሆነ ነው።

ሊስትሮ ስል አንተ አትበሳጭም። ስለዚህ ሶዶ ሊስትሮነት እንደማይነካካው ተረድቻለሁ። በጣም የሚበሳጩት እኖሩ ኦዴ እና ምስቃኑ ዳማ ናቸው። ፈስ ያለበት ዝላይ አይችልም እንዲሉ።

የጠቅላላው ጉራጌ የወደፊት እጣ ፈንታ ኦህዴድ እጅ ነው ብለህ ገብረሃል። ይህንንም የጉራጌ ብልጠት ብለሀዋል። እኔ ግን አብይ አህመድ "ጉራጌ ተሹለክላኪና አሻጥረኛ ነው ያለውን ቪድዬ አመጣልሃለሁ። የት እንዳረግኩት ጠፋኝ እንጂ ዓብይ በሚገባ ያውቃኅኋል። ልትሸውዱት አትኅሉም። የሚያዋጣችሁ እንደ ሃድያ ፡ ወላይታ፡ ወዘተ ኒውትራል ብትጫወቱ ነው። እመነኝ አሁን እያየገ ያለው የአማራ ወጣት የተደረገበትን የሚረሳ ትውልድ አይደለም። በቀለኛም ነው። ኦሮሞ እንኳን ግማሽ በሚያህል ደረጃ ኒውትራል ነው። ፋኖ ይህንን ስለሚያውቅ ሲማርክ ይለቃቸዋል። ስልጤና ጉራጌ ግን በጣም ከኦህዴድ ተረኛ የበለጠ ፀረ አማራ በመሆን ለፋሺዝም እየሰራችሁ ነው። just my two cents...I know you won't woke up till Fano knocked your door.

You got to hate oppression to rebel against it. Gurage has not established its freedom movement means education on its oppression has been lacking.
