Oromo’s Current Goal: Oromiffa as Primary Working Language of Ethiopia, Replacing Amharigna!

Oromo’s Current Goal: Oromiffa as Primary Working Language of Ethiopia, Replacing Amharigna!

The Oromo envisioned an independent Gadaa Oromia as we had low confidence at that dark time of oppression. Now, we opted for democratic Federal Union after developing an intermediate confidence to lead Ethiopia as a whole. Surely, in the future, we will have high confidence even to give up borders of Gadaa Oromia for democratic Ethiopia definately shall be de facto Great Oromia. The main precondition for this to happen is a promotion of Afaan Oromo to the primary working language of Ethiopia, replacing Amharigna. Thus, what Oromo republicans need to do is just take power in Finfinne palace and do the job of this promotion. It is becoming clear that Amhara elites and Oromo elites are competing to have a leading power and position in Finfinne palace. Not clear is the position of Dr. Abiy in the competition of the two camps. Till now, he kept or maintained the hitherto domination of Amharanet/Amharigna at the cost of Oromiffaa/Oromummaa. That is why he lost support of Oromo majority, especially that of Qeerro. Observing this fact, the [ deleted ] Amhara elites, who manipulated and separated him from his Oromo constituency, are trying to push him away from the palace. Dr. Abiy has now only two choices: either take side of Amharanet or come back to Oromumma. He can not be in between. Ethiopia’s fate is either further domination of Amharanet/ Amharigna or future leadership of Oromiffa/Oromumma. No need of having illusion and try to handel both sides equally. There is no such thing like using both Amharigna and Oromiffa equally. One of the languages should take primary position and be used by all federal institutions. Up to now, Amharigna has got that privilage, but Oromiffa as language of the biggest nation deserves this leading primary position. Then, the communication between regional states of Ethiopia will be by using Oromiffa, replacing Amharigna. Dr. Abiy and his EPP can only survive, if they get support of Oromo mass. To achieve that, there is no other way rather than promoting Oromiffa to this primary leading position, replacing the hitherto domination of Amharigna.

I once listened the hidden speech of Shimelis Abdissa! Interesting point he raised is the fact that Amharinya is losing and Oromiffaa is winning ground in the whole country. Is that realy true? Is Abiy Ahmed’s EPP to realize such Ethiopia led by Oromummaa? If true, then Abiy and Fayyis are on the same page. But, I doubt! Abiy is under the strong influence of Neo-naftagnas and he seems to be comfortable in keeping the hitherto dominance of Amharinga and Amharanet in Ethiopia. Such Ethiopia in which Amharigna dominates is de facto Great Amharia. That is why Abiy’s Ethiopia (Great Amharia) is antagonistically opposite to Fayyis’ Ethiopia (Great Oromia). In free and natural competition of languages in that country, Oromiffaa has a demographic advantage to lead. For Amharinga to maintain its dominance, dictatorship should continue. That is why Amhara elites are basically anti- democratic authorotarian dictators. On the contrary, Oromiffaa benefits in democracy, because it gets chance to be promoted to primary language of the country. Then, it is logical that democratic Ethiopia will be de facto Great Oromia, whereas for Amharinga’ s further dominance and for Ethiopia to continue as Great Amharia, dictatorship of Neo-naftagnas should persist. Abiy’s current dictatorial move to crack down on ge0nuine Oromo nationalists is serving this cause of Neo-nftagas. Thus, Abiy’s Ethiopia is now Great Amharia, whereas Fayyis’ Ethiopia will be eqiivalent to Great Oromia.

Ethiopia is actually the land of competiton between two blocs of Oromo elites since about 3000 years ago. The two blocs are: 1, those who want to be converted in order to own and serve Abeshanet in general and Amharanet in particular; 2, those who need to conserve and develop Oromumma. This struggle between the two camps was/is going militarily, ideologically and politically; unforunately the Amharanet bloc used to dominate till now. Three years back, the Oromumma camp seemed to get victory, which nowadays could be seen as only mirage in a desert. Actually the Amharanet bloc being led by Abiy Ahmed is still dominating and ruling. Abiy once told his parlament that he used to struggle for freedom of Oromo people. Is this true? Can he serve these two antagonistic masters? It seems that Abiy is serving Amharanet bloc at the cost of Oromummaa camp. He is keeping the dominance of Amharanet; that is why he is procrastinating the planed promotion of Afaan Oromo to the working language of the federation. Abiy has yet two options: continue to serve Amharanet and be denounced in history as Oromo foe or correct his attitude and serve Oromummaa to be remembered as Oromo friend in the future. But, surely he can not serve these two antagonizing masters at the same time. So, Abiy need to choose whom to serve and how to be remembered in the future

The most broken record worthy of Guinness World Records . Oromiffa coequal federal language with Amharic through educational system .Amharas study Oromffa and Oromos will learn Amharic the rest of Ethiopians will learn their own language and one federal language. Either Oromuffa or Amharic.problem solved. Here every day ad nauseam you are spilling ink how Oromuffa should become the primary language. Nauseating.

Simply put, every individual and institution promoting Oromo national interest is our friend and those working against it are our foes. In politics there is no permanent foe or permanent friend, but permanent interest. The first question to be answered is, “what is Oromo’s national interest?”. Any thing in favour of our freedom, sovereignty, peace, prosperity and security is serving our interest.  Thus, our list of foes and friends vary based on timing.

BUFFOON. Out of 85 Ethiopian nationalities there is only one that going decide the future of Ethiopia. Why a little bit of complex thinking is absent in your universe is baffling. Man.

Right timing is very important for us in general and for pro-independence Oromo in particular when trying to define our foes and friends in order to decide who can work with or against whom at particular time. Then, depending on the right timing, we can be arrab-sadee (have triple tongue) in first phase of our struggle, arrab-lamee (double tongue) during second phase and arrab-tokkee (single tongue) in third phase. I think we need this logical differentiation not only to know the right timing, but also to look at three phases/stations in our liberation journey constructivly:

– first station was the time, where the struggle was between Tigrean hegemonist front and three groups of Oromo freedom fighters (pro-independence, pro-federalism and pro-integration) – i.e three against one. Oromo nationalists were arrab-sadee (pro-independence, -federalism & -integration). Here, only using force was a good solution for the fascist TPLF was not in a position to solve the conflict per consensus or democracy (referendum).

– second station is the time-now after freedom from the hegemonist front, where there is a conflict between the unitarists (pro-integration) and other nationalists (pro-federation and pro-independence) – two gainst one.  Thus, we can be arrab-lame (talking federalism and independence). This conflict can be solved through consensus or democracy or force. It is up to the unitarists to choose which way of the solution is better. I hope, they are prefering democracy (election way).

– third station will be the time after getting victory over the unitarists through one of the above three methods, when we will decide on conflict of the objectives: pro-federation forces and pro-independence fronts (through either concensus or referendum, but not using force) – one against one. Then, we can be arrab-tokke (opting for independence or for federation). The decision can be in favour of an own state (Gadaa Oromia) compared to a union state (Great Oromia, i.e democratic Ethiopia) or the vice versa. It seems consensus on multinational federation will prevail.

If we consider this right timing, it was absurd on side of pro-independence fighters to call or label the pro-federalism and pro-integration forces as enemy. The only enemies now are actually the assimilationist Dergists (some Amhara elites), hegemonist Woyanites (the TPLF) and the dictatorial Biltsiginna. Pro-integration unitarists can be enemy of pro-independence forces only at this second station now, if they refuse consensus or referendum as rule of political game and opt for force to achieve their goal. Pro-federalism forces can be enemy to pro-independence forces only at third station, if also they refuse consensus or referendum and try to use force to achieve their objective.

So, let’s have right timing to differentiate our foe and friend at respective stations. The struggle in first phase was yesterday: freedom vs fascisim; now in second phase today: multi-national federation vs multi-regional federation; and tomorrow in third phase: an own Oromo state vs a union Oromia state (Gadaa Oromia vs Great Oromia)! My choice is “self rule of Gadaa Oromia and shared rule of Great Oromia (i.e Gadaa Oromia within Great Oromia)”. May Waaqa help us choose the best for the Oromo! Abiy’s future legacy depends on the choice he makes today: serve Amharanet and be denounced as Oromo foe or serve Oromummaa and be remembered as Oromo friend! If he is determined to keep Ethiopia as Great Amharia, he is simply the 21st century Menelik, not less. But, if he chooses to foster Ethiopia as Great Oromia, he will be my hero and that of all Oromos in the walk of life! To transform the present Ethiopia to Great Oromia, it is mandatory to promote Afaan Oromo to the primary language of the federation. This will be surely done by Oromo republicans, of course not by Abiy’s prosperitans.

OPP, (You down with OPP?) :P

I wonder why you remind me of OPP every-time I see your name in this forum? Nice song!




On the serious side:

I know this Amhara/Oromo elite rivalry is killing you. We all hate to face it, but, certainly bothers many of us for sure.

Today the philosopher Yosief Ghebrehiwet gave a comment about that subject; I believe he was being objective; I found his suggestion of dividing Amhara/Oromia States to stop the rivalry very sound.

What do you think?
