Prerequisites for De-Killilization, and Democratization of Ethiopia/Oropia!

By Fayyis Oromia*

It is long overdue that Ethiopia in the form of Amapia (an Amharic-dominated country) is slowly but surely dying, while Ethiopia in the sense of Oropia (an Oromic-led country) is rising. At this transitional phase, it may be acceptable to defend and maintain the current Killil-based federation. However, in the long run, Oromo forces must strive to preserve and strengthen the integration and unity of our greater home—Oropia.

To achieve this, de-Killilization and democratization of the country are essential. The key prerequisites for this transformation include:
- Consolidation of Oromo power in the Finfinné Palace,
- Promotion of Oromic as the primary working language of the federation, and
- Creation of a common citizen identity (Ethiopiawinet) defined in Oromo terms—that is, a de facto Oropiawinet—by gradually undermining the overemphasized ethnic identities.

Once these steps are taken, it may be possible to reorganize regional administrations. For example, the Amhara Killil could be divided into Wolqayit, Agaw, Gondar, Gojjam, and Shoa; and the Oromia Killil into Macca (west Oromia), Tullama (central), Wollo (north), Arsi /south east), Barentu (east), and Borana (south). These regions, as parts of Oropia, could then each have their own parliament and government.

What could have not worked to solve political questions in Ethiopia if decentralized administrative states along this principle was applied all over Ethiopia and possibly Eritrea circa 1991?
