The OLF Successfully Tookover Prosperity Party of Dr. Abiy!

Smartly, the OLF used to struggle for liberation of its people through three approachs: fighting as rebel front, acting as opposition legally and hijacking the ruling party. It used to emphasize one approach over the others based on the convenience of the situations. I think that at the moment the third approach is more feasible and fruitful than the other two. That is why infiltrating, hijacking and instrumentalizing the ruling prosperity party of Dr. Abiy is the best option. All Oromo republicans with the OLF mindset should be members of the OPP/EPP and takeover the central power in Finfinne palace, slowly replacing the unfaithful Prosperitans lead by Dr. Abiy Ahmed. No need of fighting as rebel or acting as opposition, but better to occupy the ruling OPP in particular and EPP in general. I think, now the OLF did it successfully and influenced Dr. Abiy to come back to its constituency, of course disappointing the Amaranet Block, who wanted to use him like they did to Mengistu H/Mariam. Go go the smart OLF!

I am one of the few Oromo, who used to advocate for the OLF accept Ethiopia and rule, instead of concentrating on only Oromia. I wrote some articles in support of it; I tried to indicate that the OLF is a way forward for the troubled Ethiopia (Great Oromia). I noted that Dr. Negasso’s move as he led the Ethiopianist party (UDJ = Andinet) was not backward, but forward, as the party he joined and the alliance he helped build, Medrek, were promoters of genuine federation in Ethiopia. The OLF (mindset of all Oromo nationalists) is now moving in two parallel ways to take responsibility of leading Ethiopia after election 2021: as prosperitans in EPP and as republicans in ADF (Alliance of the OLF, ONLF, Agaw, Sidama, Afar, Mocha, Qimant, Gambella, Benishangul, Kaffa… etc), which was formed recently. Which wing of the OLF (prosperitan EPP or republican ADF) can win, is already determined. As far as the election is concerned, EPP already manipulated and rigged the result. ADF can have chance to win not election way but as rebel using OLA (Oromo Liberation Army). I think the more feasible way for the OLF is to takeover EPP.

In one of my articles, I indicated why Medrek (the previous coalition forged by OLFites in form of OFC) could be good for the Oromo to achieve our mid-goal in contrast to AFD, which was good to arrive at the end-goal, taking Medrek as a promoter of language-based federation. Even I went further and exalted Medrek’s Ethiopia with autonomous national areas including Oromia’s autonomy as a prototype for the future African federation. I took Medrek as a good compromise alliance, next to AFD, which really acted against the “divide and rule” game of the TPLF. For that reason, I even recommended at that time Birtukan “Mandela” to be formal chairperson of Medrek. Were these all “naive” assertions from me?

Oromo nation’s political interest is crystal clear: move from the status of Amharanet domination towards realization of full national freedom of Oromummaa. Any measure to be taken in supporting this move should be accepted by Oromo nationalists. The question important was: couldn’t we consider that Medrek’s ambitions and actions did promote this liberation movement? I was asking this question after following Medrek’s meetings at home and in Diaspora for many years. As I repeatedly mentioned, the rhetoric of individuals and parties in Ethiopia regarding democracy, freedom, justice, development, peace, equality, prosperity, etc. is not important for Oromo people to judge who these forces are. These values are important, and no one denies them, even members of the dictatorial EPP talk about such moral virtues.
