Oromo Prosperitans Led by Dr. Abiy Can’t Serve two Antagonizing Lords: Amharanet and Oromummaa!
The ruling Oromo elites (Prosperitans in prosperity party) led by Dr. Abiy try to reconcile the irreconcillable two contents of Ethiopian identity (Amharanet and Oromumma). Till the Oromo Prosperitans took over power in Finfinne palace, Ethiopianness was the same to Amharanet and all the ruling Abyssinian elites declared Oromummaa as the main enemy of Ethiopia and Ethiopiawinet. Thus, any Oromo was considered as good Ethiopian only when (s)he denies Oromumma and be ready to be Amharanized. Now, the Oromo Prosperitans try to change this, but by keeping Amharigna as primary working language of the federation and promoting Oromiffaa to only secondary position. This is yet the same mechanism of taking Ethiopiawinet be equivalent to Amharanet. Oromo Prosperitans try to decieve the Oromo just by using Oromiffa as secondary federal language. Actually, Oromiffa should legitimately be promoted to primary position and replace the present status of Amharigna. Therefore, there seems to be no compromise solution, if Ethiopia should survive. Ethiopia shall continue either as usual with Ethiopiawinet be the same to Amharanet or Ethiopia will have Oromiffa as primary working language and be transformed to the status where Ethiopiawinet will be the same to Oromumma. Having both identities side by side can only happen in confederation, where Amharia and Oromia will be quasi independent from each other. In that case, Ethiopia will practically be dismantled. The burning question now is that which version of Ethiopia do the Oromo Prosperitans serve? Ethiopia as Great Amharia (with Amharigna as primary language) or Ethiopia as Great Oromia (with Oromiffa as primary federal language). They can not promote both versions at the same time; thus can’t serve two lords!

It is fact on the ground that every political minded individual and organization in Ethiopia prefers federation as an appropriate admnistrative structure for the country. The question is only about choosing what type of federation. Especially, both OPP of Abiy and OFC of Jawar claim to prefer language based federation (“ethnic federation”). Where is their different? As I see, OPP just replaced TPLF, but continued promoting ‘Amharinga dominated dictatorial federation, whereas OFC is striving to foster ‘Oromiffaa led democratic federation’. No question that domination of Amharinga can be continued only dictatorially, because if the status of languages will be determined democraticaĺly, Oromiffaa has the chance to be primary language of the federation. This dictatorial keeping of Amharigna’s dominance is what Abiy’s OPP is doing now, thus lost support of Oromo majority. Surely, Jawar’s OFC being joined by the OLF and other genuine Oromo nationalists, shall prevail in the future.

Abiy’s admnistration imprisoning Jawar and co. as well as banning OMN, the symbol of Oromo protest against tyranny, is simply the beginning of the end for his advocated Ethiopian union. The only question is: what will follow? An independent Gadaa Oromia or an integrative Great Oromia. Dr. Abiy keeping the dominance of Amharanet at the cost of Oromummaa is already a failed project. No question that Oromo protest shall come back again and will send the Amharanized Oromo elites now ruling in Finfinne palace to their appropriate place, but it will not keep them in the palace. Surely, Abiy’s Ethiopia of Amharanet (Union Ethiopian) will either be replaced by Jawar’s Ethiopia of Oromummaa (Union Oromia) or it will give birth to Gadaa Oromia. It seems that as far as the Oromo are concerned Abiy’s regime is done. Time will show us what and who shall follow!
