What is oromos' need? We need self administretion,one vision and one goal. So these are done by oromos' not by amhara, tigre or anybody.Notice that oromo can be christian or muslim. but straggling for Christianity or muslim is not straggling for Oromos'.and it should be with out any external political pressure like OPDO.
so oromos' vote is for OLF. and may be OPC or OFDM.

Death to olf. olf dont represent us, its a terrorist organization set out to destroy our unity. ofdm is fake woyane opc is fake udj is the closest thing Ethiopia has to democracy.

Jijirama group(olf).

Jimma times has diverse visitors so the result was expected

amharas and mixed people voted for UDJ

oromos voted for OLF, followed by OFDM and OPC


tigres and bribed/sold oromos voted for OPDO

SHALL WE ASK OUR INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTION TO THE CAUSE OF THE OROMOS. I THINK WE NEED TO CONTRIBUTE TO UPLIFT THE LOW SPIRIT OF THE OROMOS IN ETHIOPIA. LET US USE THE FEW OPPPORTUNITIES WE HAVE TO EDUCATE, TO CAPCACITATE THE IMPOVERISHED ECONOMOICALLY.

I BELIEVE EACH OF US CAN BE GOOD CAUSES FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE LIVES OF MILLIONS IN NEED.

DO WE HAVE ANY FORUM/GROUPS TO ADDRESS THE IMMEDIATE NEEDS?

LET'S THINK OF SUCH FORUMS - THE CREATION OF WALDAA, ETC...

Geleta, Faalmata, Mina, Kuulani, Obssan, Lamessa, tolosa, buddaso etc.
One died, another was wretched out of life and another one and another one, piling up like falling snow, for even the radiant road is blinding mirage for the olf man.

better late than never as the old adage goes. i feel "angry and frustrated" true. for a long time i couldn't explain why ? now i know. it's frustrating because the person u want to engage in conversation is off base all the time. it is like you show him the ball, he has no concept of ball or ball park. it is like talking in 2 different channel. let us look this from the oromo point of view. why independent oromia is not good for the oromo people. mind u befor u follow or lead u must carefully weigh your options, find the maximum desireable outcome possible. the desirable out come here is peace, prosperity, freedom etc. for the oromo people. the question was also raised here why amharas want unity or one Ethiopia. the struggle now is between oromians and Ethiopians. look at the map of oromia real carefully. look the wandering map, diffused demography of the oromo people. look the culture, the language etc. now 2 hostile forces facing each other: on one side the olf and its degenerate derivatives on the other side ETHIOPIANS. according to u olf is the absolute majority. that is nonsense. the ethiopian state among the first nation-state in the world. it has survived for thousands of years. the proof is its intra-ethnic identity and absolute majority at least 75%. even if u count all the oromo population it is ridiculously a minority. i for one know for sure, with out the shadow of any doubt the majority of oromos like to be Ethiopians. for i know oromo blood flows through my veins. in your blinding hate when we say Ethiopia u think only amhara. Ethiopia is not just an intra-ethnic identity it is much more than that but i leave out that for now it is too much for the olf dung. now olf vs Ethiopia. the tplf is still in power because despite melese's initial screw up they profess to be Ethiopians. otherwise the country would have been up in flame and would have engulfed them. the point is that in an all out ethnic war ( the race war as the KKK says) olf will be consumed. don't forget that the southern nations they are Ethiopian nationalist to the extreme. generally they don't trust u or respect u. I'm not making this up. I'm speaking from experience. They will not leave Ethiopia for oromia or Amharic for affan oromo. In short to get oromia u have to go to an all out war. what u get is not oromia but war. 50 ( calm down, OK let us make it 20 ) years of war u have nothing to show for it. No trick, not tactic will help olf get its mindless desire. Oromo people are not fools, they know from experience what is good and evil:- Olf is one. In future Ethiopia no ethenic based political party will be allowed. The olf dung will be prosecuted with crime against humanity for discriminating against ethiopian citizens based on ethnicity. So this is good time. It is open season on Ethiopians and genuine oromo Ethiopians. Enjoy while it lasts. Just a parting shot, a last one a very last. Ethiopia will always be Ethiopia but it is also very important every ethenic group develop its own culture, language and administer itself without discriminating others. I'm Ethiopian first and amhara-oromo second. Earth and heaven may pass not my Ethiopia:- the center of my origin. The symbol of freedom and black resistance for all Africans.

dear jimmatimes,

PLEASE REMOVE THE TIGRE PARTY OPDO AND THE AMHARA PARTY UDJ FROM THE LIST!!!

this was not fair voting jimmatimes! we respect your independent and balanced media work but Oromo people SHOULD NOT be divided by amhara and tigre parasite parties like UDJ and OPDO

please remove the OPDO (tigre) and UDJ(amara) from the list

It is absolutely irational to consider UDJ as an Oromo party or even as a Party campaigning for an Oromo cause?



Has Burtukan claimed to be an Oromo? Does she champion for the Oromo struggle? Does she speak Affan Oromoo? Does she consider herself as an Oromo?



UDJ is an Amara political organisaton and does not represent us. Therefore, please remove it fom your list of Oromo political paries.

for sure all Amharas who visited this site have voted and there is no question whom they will vote for-ofcourse for their Trojan Horse UDJ!

After all this still oromos voted for oromo party. the result is as follows.

7+12+35+11=65%!

Amharas 35%

Obssan,
you put it very well! No illusion, the groups can be graded as follows based on their importance for Oromo cause:
- 1st OLF to lead us to self-determination,
- 2nd OFC (OPC &OFDM) to promote the struggle half way to self-determination,
- 3rd ODJ (Oromos in UDJ) to promote individual freedom of Oromos
- 4th ORD (Oromo Revolutionary Democrats in OPDO) to keep the status quo
- 5th and the last to be good for Oromos are the very few confused ones trying to struggle for "democracy" in Unitarist parties like AEUP, EDP and EPRP.
