Adabna is to be celebrated for sodo Hoe-rus who believes Sodo is the peak of Gurage and supports Aramuma!
የልፋቱ ዋጋ!
ለደገፈበት :lol:

It ain’t for Gurage proper.Gurage proper asked for self adminstration which is its constitutional right but denied illegally.
Adabna is Hoe-rus and sodo workout to support the self proclaimed Oromo king from Bashasha. Ain’t Gurage’s business :lol:
Gurage can do it in its location and tradition. No need to come to addis to politicize it!

Odie, let things be as they do exist in the present. No applied force or stressers.

As they say let Gojjames be proud to be Gojjam Amara. Let Arsis be proud to be Arsi Orma.. Shewa proud to be Shewa Amara though originally a bunch fortune seeker settlers from all Abyssinia tribes of the north in Axum's most southern province of Lasta. And, Borena to be proud Borena Oromo.

As long as the meeting point is Gurage, let all be proud to be Kistane Gurages, Mesqan Gurages, Welene Gurage, Kokir/Gedebano, inshallah we will bring back Silte Gurage, of course we the historical Gurage, the 7bet.

This is my way of solving the question of the individual called Whorus or some think he is a PP propaganda robot. I think he is ma real brotha. But it's sad the way he has been portrayed.

:lol: :lol:

It ain’t change nothing!
Just another politisized tradition the likes of ireecha!

It won’t solve any of Gurage issues you mention day in day out!
If you think that will have positive impact some how, let it be so. I am not that easily amused guy or I don’t support playing with Ethiopians for the ethnic political consumption. I don’t give a hoot! It is not any thing different from ireecha or ashenda or…. other for me!

Let’s call it Gurage dance event or coachella and invite all Ethiopians for Gurage dance challenge :lol:
Still I refrain from promoting that as there is civil war all over the country and not time for celebration!

በነገራችን ላይ ቃሉ አዳብና ነው ፣ አዳባና አይደለም ስለዚህ Adabina ነው ። አዲስ አበባ ለመጀመሪያ ግዜ ዘንድሮ 2018 መስቀል ላይ መጀመሩ ነው ።

ቃሉ የመጣው አደየ አብና ከሚለው ነው ፣ አደየ በክስታኔኛ አደይ አባባ ማለት ነው። አብና ማለት የክስታኔኛ ቃል 'አብ ' ስጥ ፣ አብና ስጦታ ማለት ነው። ስለዚህ የምትወዳትን ልጅ በሎሚ መውጋት መች እንደ ተጀመረ ባላውቅም ጥንት ወንድየ የአደይ አባባ ይሰጣት እንደ ነበር ነው ቃሉ የሚነግረን ።

እነዚህ ልጃገረዶች ከመስክረመ 1 እስከ መስቀል ደመራ ማታ ድረስ ማታ ማታ ደመራ ስር እየጠበቅናቸው አበቤ አበቤ የሚባለው የመስቀል አበባ ይዘፍናሉ! ከዚያም ከመስክረም 17 እስከ ጥቅምት አምስት ድረስ ቅዳሜና እሁድ ገበያ ፣ ሜዳ፣ ወይም ቤተ ክርስቲያን ውጭ አዳብና ይጫወታሉ ።

በነዚህ ቀና ሙሉ ነጻነት ነው ያላቸው! ማግባት የሚፈልጉትን ልጅ የሚመርጡበት ጨዋታ ነው ። ተደብቆ ማሳሳም ሊኖር ይችላል ። ሌላ ብልግና የለም ። ሁለቱ ከተፋቀሩ አበባውን ወይም ሎሚውን ከተቀበለውች ሄዶ ላባትና እናቱ ይነግርና እነሱ ወደ ልጅቷ ቤት ሽማግሌ መላክ ይጀምራሉ ማለት ነው።

ስለዚህ አገር ቤት እሮብ ለት በጥቅምት 5 ምድረ ከብድ አቦና ዳዮ አቦ ያመት ክብር ላይ የመጨረሻው አዳብና ይሆናል ። ለዚህ ነው ያዲስ አበባው ዛሬ ቅዳሜ (አሁን እየተጀመረ ነው) እሁድ በወዳጅነት ፓርክ የሚደረገው።

የሴቶቹና የወጣቶቹ ማህበሮች እቅዳቸው በዩኔስኮ ለማስመዝገብ ነው ። ያ ሆነም አልሆነ አሁን ላይ ባህሉ ሙሉ በሙሉ ተመስሏል ።

ይህ ባህል ጥንት ሕዝባችን ክርቲያንም ሙስሊምም ከመሆኑ በፊት የነበረ ነው ስለዚህ ነገ መላ ጉራጌ ነው በፓርኩ የሚገኘው! ሌላው ቀርቶ አደሬዎችም ተመሳሳይ ባህል አላቸው፤ እነሱ ሸዋል ይሉታል ፣ እኛ ሸባል የምንለው ነው። እነሱ ጋር ሸዋል ልክ አዳብና ሲሆን በክስታኔኛ ሸባል ማለት ግን ሰርግ ፣ የሰርግ በዓል ማለት ነው

The Adabna festival is sponsored by Kistane Gurage Youth International. Conceived, coordinated and executed by it. It's a privately organized Adabna celebration. The City and Gov of Addis has no hand or input in the festival's conception and execution. The Kistane Youth International may have rented the Friendship Park from the City Gov of Addis or was allowed the space at no cost. The Kistane Youth International may be responsible for the security, water and electricity use, and cleaning of the park at the end of the celebration. The festival is Gurage's own, per true tradition of Gurage as most projects of Gurage are almost always funded by Gurage.

Life is complex. For example, while some Ethiopians fight wars and die to protect Ethiopia, other Ethiopians at the same time may be celebrating their honymoon or others are welcoming a new baby, while some are completely oblivious of our soldiers dying but learning and inventing a new machine or a new formula to make new chemical.products.

All have to do what they have to do. I don't blame you for your state of sadness about our country. But life should go on!

The Kistane/sodo think the are the crème of Gurage. I ain’t grow up hearing that. I never herd Kistane/sodo as pure Gurage. They were called Sodo Gurage for a reason!? They are more close to Addis and get crumbs from the system and behave as if they represent the whole Gurage making sound the whole Gurage worships Aremuma. I don’t like that. It is ethnic politics support show!

It's ok. Such shows existed even during the monarchy in various places in Addis. It was not as dramatized as a public spectacle as it is now. The Kistane Youth is a new thing after Gurage has been split into East and West Gurage by PP.
:twisted: :twisted:

It has been established in the last 2 years. This is their first show. They are advancing a good and beneficial youth relationship culture, enforcing choice of life mates than by arranged marriage. Also critical thinking contained in the process of choosing. Making decisions indepndedently. Also, learning responsibility for the individual's decision. :lol: :lol:

There is a larger and older Gurage Youth International. Am sure, Kistane youth must have been a part of.
