Ethiopia:Sidama To Become Regional State

[Che -Guevara]

The regional approved the measure. Other Southern Nations will certainly make the same demands.

[Queen of S]

What importance does Sidama have to Somalia? I have never heard about that region

[Holac]

Which group lives in Sidama? 

[Che -Guevara]

The Sidama people, another ethnic group colonized by Abyssinia. They are linguistically closer to Oromo and Somalis. 

[Xaaji Xunjuf]

Sidamo  is rich in agriculture and coffee and it's Has allot of good land  they border Somalis.  The region is inhabbited by gallas small group of gallas but the most are wolayta former  pm his ethnic group. And also other bantus and cali beysteyn. The region was conquered by miniliq in the late 19 century when miniliq conquered  the place  using  the gallas in jima  and ras dhalche some galla fellow from shewa. Meles later gave them   more say. Let the agews in gojjam have their own kilil 2.  The amxaras will comlain but  Let them complain.

Che, you keep in tabs all Xabashiland issues. Our very own Tigrey guest resident disappeared into wilderness ever since Tigrey's power suddenly weaned. Poor them.

[Holac]

I have a feeling Abiy Ahmed is paving the way for the break-up of the Somali region. This is a smoke screen to set the stage. 

[Che -Guevara]

MMA,

Will do.

Holac,

Sidama used to be its own region. Though anything can happen, I doubt they want to divide the Somali  State. That will create more headache which will haunt  other regions.

Not this time. Sidama is only one that becomes a state. 3 others have become zone from special district.

Hello Mooge,

Oromo boy so far has been faithful to:

1. His faith the government now has a lot more Pente (protestants)

2. His side of the Oromo the Amharaized (galbeedi grouping), but conflict with western side

3. Very loyal to UAE and Eritrea

4. Most Amhara have withdrawn or doubt support

5. Enough Tigray around him, less Somalis than ever before

6. Prefers unitary, but Federalka is so far unmovable

That is possible if Abiy gets some support from locals. He prefers unitary, but seemingly impossible now in Ethiopia. The Sidama have been wanting this for 17 years. Intialy they did not have capacity to set up kililka. There us some criterion of capacity.

[Che -Guevara]

So Wolayita Zone and Gurage will not be considered?

I am here. You know that. As for your Tigray friends lol, they seem to be busy with Eritrea. Who knows either peace and prosperity or war soon.

Eritrea have said that Ethiopia must get rid of the Federalka system. This was expected since the ports, minerals known and going so far are not in the territory of the Tigray of Eritrea.

Not this time. The Welayta are not in a hurry, the Gurage have been told by their supposed leader of Ginbot 7 to not seek Kilil. It will disadvantage them since they are scattered everywhere. They want unitary governance.
