The Ongoing Conflict in Ethiopian Orthodox Church: Domination of Amharanet vs Liberation of Oromumma!
I think the ongoing conflict in Ethiopian Orthodox church is the attempt of Oromumma striking back against the more than 750 years domination of Amharanet. The domination startend as Yekuno Amlak declared Amharigna to be the language of his palace. Since then, Amharigna/Amharanet dominated and expanded slowoly in all lands of Agaw (part of Gojjam, Tigrai and Gondar) as well as in Oromia to the extent of occupying all regions up to Indian ocean during the rule of Amdetsion. In the 16th century Oromo movement, the Gadaa people could reverse the process and marched back up to Tigrai. Unfortunately, again the Amharas could push back south wards about 150 years ago under the leadership of Atse Theodros and then Atse Menilik. After formation of the OLF, 50 years ago, the Oromo tried to get rid of this domination of Amharanet. We are successful to some extent. The current step taken by Oromo Orthodoxites to liberate Oromumma from the hitherto domination of Amharanet ist one of the best victories we had till now. The next step should be the expected promotion of Afaan Oromo to the primary working language of all federal institutions, replacing Amharigna. As gar as I am concerned, taking this step combined with consolidation of Oromo power in Finfinne palace ist the best guarantee for liberation of Oromumma from domination of Amharanet.
