Is Abiy’s Ethiopia a Backward or Forward Move in Oromo’s Political Evolution?

Is Abiy’s Ethiopia a Backward or Forward Move in Oromo’s Political Evolution?

There are 5 steps in Oromo’s political evolution:

1. Till the 1960s, Oromo elites were active in building a unitary Ethiopia dominated by Amharigna and Amharanet. These elites were proud of being Amharanized and were ready to die for such Ethiopia (unitary Great Amharia). Is Abiy’s EPP striving to bring back such Ethiopia; is his move back ward to such country? All Oromo elites in “ye andient hayiloch like EZEMA are moving at this level of the Oromo political evolution. Their Goals is an 'assimilative unitary Great Amharia'.

2. A programm to have autonomous Oromia under the federal government of dictatorial Ethiopia being dominated by Amharinga and Amharanet as it seems to exist now to some extent. Is Abiy trying to make such federation true and more genuine? All Oromo elites like those in EPP, who feel comfortable under the still existing domination of Amharigna and Amharanet, belongs to this phase of the evolution. Their aim is to keep the present 'dictatorial Amharinga dominated federation'

3. An attempt to forge an independent Gadaa republic of Oromia as envisioned by the OLF. All pro-independence Oromo elites with low level of political confidence are with the mindset of this this phase. Their vision can summarized as 'an independent repablics of national states.

4. To achieve autonomous Oromia with in democratic federal Ethiopia led by Oromiffaa and Oromummaa as planned by Oromo federalists like Leenco, Jawar, Mararaa, etc. These elites, who wete in ODF and are in OFC, have got an intermediate political confidence. Their objektive being 'a democratic Oromiffaa led federation'

5. To foster an integrative Great Oromia, i.e unitray Ethiopia led by Oromiffaa and Oromummaa as advocated by Fayyis. Any Oromo individual entertaining this phase of the evolution has a high level of confidence that the Oromo can own and transform the whole Ethiopia to Oromia. Till now, there is no single Oromo org. persuing this vision. The vision here can be Formulare as 'an integrative united Great Oromia'

It seems Abiy’s move is either back ward to the first phase of unitary Ethiopia (Great Amharia) or to keep the Amharinga dominated second phase in contrary to the forward move of Oromo federalist to the 4th state, where Oromiffaa will lead. It is also opposite to the forward move of Fayyis. We actually need to move forward to the 3rd, 4th or 5th step. Our mindset, the OLF, can lead us towards one of these goals.

I think, it is an appropriate time now for the OLF to instrumentalize the name Ethiopia, the flag green-yellow-red, the concept of Ethiopiawinet, the ideology of Andinet (Ethiopian unity), the Orthodox christianity as well as to use Amharinya as second language in order to take over future leadership of the whole political community in Ethiopia (Great Oromia) and in the Horn (Greater Oromia). Simply put, it is time for utilitarian flexibility. More than enough has been written about an ultimate goal of the Oromo national liberation movement. Still, the necessary discussion on this issue is going on and the discord among Oromo nationalists regarding the known two objectives is also obvious. The OLF, who fought for an independent Gadaa Oromia in the last more than 40 years went home from exil and forest life. But, with the same goal of forging Gadaa Oromia or with new and better vision of fostering an integrative Ethiopia (Great Oromia)?
