You & your comrades here use the term Oromumma anytime you wish to insult or criticize the policies of the OPDO, so it goes from: you having a fair criticism of the OPDO, to you guys insulting Oromo's as a nation.
Since when is OPDO representing Oromo's, genuinely? Nobody said that, hence why this is a war in Oromia that is raging in several areas.
We do not want to rule others, but we also will NOT be ruled by OTHERS on OUR land either, that is the stance of many Oromo nationalists, perhaps not the OPDO kind, but genuine nationalists.
The issue in Finfinne/Addis Ababa should be more gradual, I do believe Afaan Oromo should be a 2nd working language there but not something that is forced overnight but a gradual long term process, along with Amharic, so that it can be accommodating for the nation that city is in the middle of, and since that city gets most of its water, food, etc, from Oromia & Oromo's; we have every right to feel that way. You guys can eat Oromo beef, chicken, honey, drink Oromo milk, water, etc, but then hate our culture and language; how does that make sense?
It's just like haile selassie said about eritreans: we need their land, not the people; so he went on. abolished their federal status; and committed war crimes against them, forcing them to start their successful struggle in 1961: and we all know the results of that.
