    A Cry for Justice: Save Oromo Refugees Trapped in Saudi Detention

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-252025-05-25

    Oromo refugees in Saudi Arabia are enduring appalling conditions—crammed in overcrowded cells, denied proper food, medicine, and justice. Most are victims of human trafficking, not criminals. Some now face execution on fabricated charges, while the Ethiopian embassy remains shamefully silent. The world must act before more lives are lost.

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-242025-05-24

    The Indigenous Oromo remain deeply impoverished despite living on some of the most fertile land in Ethiopia. This article unpacks how systemic exclusion, political betrayal, and false narratives like “Baale Giize” continue to marginalize the Indigenous Oromo while others prosper at their expense.

    Digital Serfdom in Ethiopia: Faarseebulaa, Propaganda, and the Politics of Praise

    By Olii Boran (PhD, Sociology) and Ed Chapman (Digital Forensics Researcher) Posted on2025-05-222025-05-22

    Faarseebulaa refers to Ethiopia’s emerging class of Digital Serfs—individuals who voluntarily serve authoritarian systems through online propaganda. Unlike historical peasants or proletariats who resisted oppression, the Faarseebulaa defend it for personal gain, low self-worth, and limited awareness. They are not rulers, yet they passionately safeguard the system that exploits the majority.

    A Postcard for a Nobel Peace Laureate: From Sisters Twinned in Sorrow

    By Daughters Twinned in Resolve Posted on2025-05-212025-05-21

    This haunting postcard captures the grief of two Ethiopian mothers — one Oromo, one Tigrayan — whose suffering stands as a silent rebuke to a Nobel Peace Laureate. History may forget his speeches, but not the faces he left behind in ashes.

    When Public Funds Become Private Fortunes: Why Misusing Public Money Must Be a High Crime

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-202025-05-19

    While millions of Ethiopians suffer without basic services, the regime's ruling elite continue to exploit public funds as if they were private fortunes. Lavish lifestyles, overseas treatments, fleets of gas-guzzling SUVs — all financed at the people's expense. This article exposes the mechanisms of corruption, proposes a framework for restitution, and issues a warning: there will be no sunset clause for the theft of public funds.

    How Ethiopia's Regime Is Squandering Billions It Cannot Afford to Cling to PowerCyber Trolls—The Regime’s Costly Propaganda Warfare

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-182025-05-18

    Excerpt: Ethiopia is now well known for squandering billions on trivial projects while the citizens in millions are hurting. The regime pays cyber trolls more than doctors — perhaps at a ten-to-one ratio — builds palaces while hospitals collapse, and fights dissent harder than it fights poverty. This is an empire betrayed from within. Ethiopia...

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-172025-05-17

    Ethiopia’s parliament has become a theatre of false applause, where belly-politicians betray their people by clapping for lies in Ethiopian politics.

    An Open Letter to the Caffee Oromia: Fulfill Your Sacred Mandate

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-152025-04-29

    An Open Letter to the Caffee Oromia: This is a plea wrapped in pain and principle. As the Oromo people endure loss, disillusionment, and unanswered sacrifices, the silence of their elected house grows louder. This letter calls on Caffee Oromia to rise — not just as an institution, but as a conscience.

    A Coward's Policy in Oromia: The Maize Ban That Threatens Food Security

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-152025-05-13

    When maize becomes a threat and feeding your people a crime, governance has failed not only in courage—but in conscience. The senseless maize ban just imposed across Oromia’s Rift Valley belt is yet another tragic episode of hapless leadership—one that shuns dialogue in favor of desperate, random firefighting, even if it means starving its own population in the months ahead.

    Excerpt: When intellectualism aligns with power instead of truth, it risks becoming a refined tool of domination. This reflection challenges the legacy of Ethiopian academia and calls for a return to ethical, justice-driven scholarship. Introduction Throughout history, intellectuals have often served as society's conscience—interpreters of truth, critics of power, and illuminators of the human condition....

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-072025-05-07

    Excerpt This article unveils the Chilling Assimilation Blueprint of 1933 for the Oromo people, a calculatedly policy framework of Haile Selassie's regime.

    Legal Path to Further Oromo Dispossession? The Oromo People Must Reject the Draft Property Ownership Proclamation

    By OT Editorial Posted on2025-05-022025-05-02
    2 Comments

    Excerpt: A dangerous new draft law in Ethiopia threatens to legalize a deeper level of Oromo dispossession by allowing foreign nationals to own immovable property—including ancestral lands in Oromia. More than just an economic shift, this proposed legislation risks permanently severing the Oromo people from their land, culture, and identity. What’s at stake is not...
