This rebuttal challenges the grossly biased and inflammatory article authored by Mr. Girma A. Demeke of Jimma University, which is scheduled for publication in the Journal of African and Asian Studies (JAAL), Volume 14, Issue 2. Masquerading as scholarly analysis, the article deploys ideologically loaded language such as “ethnic politics” and “scourge” to delegitimize Ethiopia’s constitutional Multinational Federalism. It presents a dangerous, neo-colonial narrative that pathologizes the legitimate political aspirations of oppressed nations, nationalities, and peoples. This response calls upon Jimma University to issue a public apology for enabling the dissemination of such divisive and academically indefensible content through its faculty.
