Che -Guevara Posted February 17, 2018 Many move on to Yemen and beyond, rich Gulf countries final destination. But how bad do things have to be in Ethiopia for people to risk this journey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holac Posted February 17, 2018 Why does the biggest entry point have to be off-road Dhahar, Sanaag? It looks like Dhahar local smugglers are benefitting from this trade as the migrants try to avoid the main roads/cities where they may be stopped/returned.

Che -Guevara Posted February 17, 2018 Like everything, a criminal aspect has developed. Their entry point is from Waqooyi with safe houses in Sool/Saanaag and smugglers in coastal Bari. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoniZ Posted February 17, 2018 The numbers are far more smaller than two years ago, when you could witness young Oromo men marching on foot alongside the highway, from outside Hargeisa till you reach Bosaso. The likes of Cali Xun in this clip played effective role in cleansing Bosaso from the high influx. It is also noticeable, those young men travelled over thousand kilometres on foot, risked their lives on sea and, withstood the smugglers' brutal treatment. When these young men are deported from Saudi Arabia back to Ethiopia, they already lost the fear factor, which made them play important role in the Oromo uprising. Some later deportees even had some experience in earning living out of the Yemeni civil war. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holac, The Tigray boys might have had other agendas in mind by flooding Somali cities with Oromo. However, it has clearly back fired on them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holac Posted February 17, 2018 You may have given the Tigre government (represented by our friend OO of course) a nice tip-off. The returnees may never be accepted again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its good. Let me give you another tip. Almost all cities in Oromo cuntry were founded by Habeshi. Three big cities including Jima have Amharic only speaking populations between 60-80%. They are angry at Tigray for allowing the Oromo to force these people under Oromo government that works only in Oromo language. These people have no government employees from them.
