    Much Ado About Irreechaa in Finfinnee: Roots, Identity, and the Future of Coexistence

    ByLeemman Leeqaa Posted on2025-10-012025-09-29

    The festival of Irreechaa in Finfinnee is not an invasion but a return to roots. It embodies the Oromo people’s right to celebrate their culture in their own capital. Ethiopia’s unity will endure only if built on equality and mutual respect, not cultural supremacy or denial of history.

    Ethiopia’s push for nuclear power station is less about energy need than regime vanity, pursued by a leader who weaponize conflict, neglect citizens, and disregard safety. With a record of atrocities, proxy wars, and environmental neglect, entrusting such a volatile state with nuclear materials risks catastrophe not just for Ethiopia, but for the entire region.

    The Amhara Elites’ Monumental Failure in Insisting on a Dead Language for Primary Education

    ByOlii Boran Posted on2025-09-182025-09-18

    The push to impose Ge’ez as a subject in Ethiopian primary schools in the Amhara region has reignited debate on the futility of elevating a dead language. Across history, such languages remain confined to liturgy or scholarship, never revived as mediums of modern schooling. Insisting otherwise is political miscalculation that risks alienation instead of cohesion.

    ByItansaa Barii Posted on2025-07-242025-07-24

    The troubled relationship between Eritrea and Ethiopia has remained unresolved since independence in 1993. This essay explores whether Eritrea secretly regrets its separation, how President Afwerki’s fixation on Ethiopian politics reflects deeper insecurities, and what the future holds.

    ByYadessa Guma Posted on2025-07-182025-07-16

    A medieval mindset still haunts the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, preserving Ge’ez exclusivity while marginalizing Oromo identity. A recent video by an Orthodox clergyman exposing this racism underscores the need for ecclesiastical autonomy. This article examines how spiritual exclusion is tied to imperial history—and why a modern, inclusive Oromia Orthodox Church is no longer just necessary, but inevitable.
