To: Shimelis Abdissa, President of Oromia Caffee Oromia, The National Assembly of the Oromo People Shame on you! Days have passed since the Somali regional parliament declared Moyale and parts of Oromia as its own on 26th July, hoisting the Somali flag over Oromo land — and you’ve said nothing. Not a word.

An Open Letter to the Caffee Oromia: This is a plea wrapped in pain and principle.

Although no official region-based corruption index for comparison exists, based on the general sentiments of public outcry, Oromia is one of the most corrupt regions of Ethiopia, if not at the top of the league table. From minor traffic offences that can be settled by offenders for mere 100 to 200 Birr on-the-spot bribe, town…
Background Ethio 360 Media is well known for their hate and disinformation propaganda regarding the politics and current affairs of Ethiopia.

Their hate…
