Gurage Feresegna

Post by Noble Amhara » 30 Jul 2021, 20:21

Gurages were one of the most bravest warriors during the time of menelik, meneliks Shewa Amhara and Shewa Oromo armies suffered heavy losses in gurage menelik was almost captured by feresegna gurage. In fact most Tulamas are the children of feresegna gurages of Shewa,

Balcha Seifu a gurage fighter was captured by Gobana in Gurage Land and more likely was given the name “Balcha Seifu” by Ras Gobana he fought against both menelik and Haile selassie and almost defeated the two.

Gurages also were able to survive the great Oromo expansions led by the Boranas. If not for their horses the gurages would be extinct by the Borana warlord Tulama who adopted all captured tribes (gudifechas) in central Shewa including many Amharas in Berara Aleltu Sendafa and forced all the conquered to not speak their languages be given new names of the borana tribe renaming everything from people’s names to villages to the borana language




Both Balcha Seifu and Dejazmatch Habte Giyorgis Dinagde are Gurages that have been falsely labelled as Oromos in order to please the artificial OPDO party
