Ethiopia: Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) – Operations in Northern Kenya (04.02.2025)





“The first phase of the prosperity journey we embarked on over the past few years, phase one, was the era of rising. It was a phase in which we woke up from a deep sleep and began rising from many debts. In this chapter, we declared that prisoners should be released, those in exile should return home, and those who fought should reconcile. Those dismissed from universities and the defense should be reinstated. Those divided within the Orthodox and Muslim communities can be bridged through synergy. Let the dust be cleared, and grace be revealed. There should be no torture in Ethiopia. Whether you believe it or not, not a single person has been subjected to torture in Ethiopia over the past six years. We are proud of this. Prosperity should be a party that lays a solid foundation. If we achieve this, members of the Prosperity Party should not focus on the current political chaos; an amazing era lies ahead. The children understands the foundation that prosperity is laying. Our fate, as well as our results, will be determined by our children. Our fathers did not properly practice politics. They did not develop indigenous ideas. Instead, they debated and killed each other over borrowed ideologies, and they wanted to continue that. There conflicts in Oromia, Amhara, Tigray, and other places. Those brewing these conflicts are the same ones who mishandled politics in the past. The new generation seeks development and prosperity” – Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali (02.02.2025)
It must be exhausting to lie as much as the Head of State and second time elected as Party President of the Prosperity Party, Abiy Ahmed Ali. Surely, he can lie, and the state media will post it as truth. They will find glossy pictures and make him look good.
Prime Minister Abiy and his party is by his definition into a second era. Nevertheless, there isn’t many changes or much hope anymore. As the conflicts are keeping a hold of him. He is allowing warfare, usage of conflict and doing so to consolidate power. That’s why he talking about the old generation fighting and they should have just sought out of his ideology.
This is the words he and how he praises his own work. The ones believing his rhetoric and speeches in 2025 has lost their way. This government is brutal and uses warfare to get ahead. The Prime Minister who speaks of peace, but really thrives on war. A person who consolidates power through conflict and gets his enemies on their knees. That’s how he works, and they all have to bend the knee to him. This is the real “medemer terror” and the era of Abiy.
Prime Minister Abiy says there is no “torture” in his years in power. We know this is a lie. He could have said there is no “extra-judicial killings” but we know that is the case too. Just like there is assassinations and other means of punitive actions against dissidents, opposition or even activists. Therefore, the PM should reconsider his stance. There is plenty of reports showing the injustice and the misuse of power, which is common practice in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.
The most vital thing in the FDRE right now is to be begging for mercy and being a loyal soldier for Abiy. If you do that and be there for Abiy. That’s when you are doing the right thing. The man who you must praise and leech on. The PM is the saviour and the statesman. That is what we are supposed to believe and see in front of us.
Abiy thinks no one will speak the truth. Someone has too. As the conflicts and the internal warfare is only showing his true character. It was a man of peace he sold his personality and ethos as, but with time his just another warlord. That is who he is… look at his record and his achievements. This is what he has done and continues to do. Peace.






Since the establishment of the prosperity government, the political, economic and social conditions of our country have been leading us to a complete confusion day by day ›› from worse to worse. Our politics has continued to strengthen the usual abduction and discrimination, the supremacy of one party; political parties have been denied the constitutional right to take away their political rights which is more than a servant, the people have been denied, they have been convicted of crime and they have been sentenced They are in depression. Our economy has turned into a war economy and we have been forced to spend the most part of our annual budget for war and peace keeping materials, development and development have no more than a painted base. The cost of living is beyond the capacity of the people, the despair of land and the choice of immigration is making our social life worse than unemployment, displacement, weakening of social institutions. If service disruption or decreasing is a sign of employees’ grief, it has been a day. The questions arising from all directions prove this. The outcry from the education and health service institutions and workers has reached a very worrying level. Civil society, media, humanitarian and interactive institutions that offer this to the people, the government and the international community have the right to make their voices heard and move freely to fulfill their goals. It’s out of the question.
In general, weakening the economic capacity of the people, displacing the social lines and institutions and dividing them by ethnicity/language and religion, cooperation, respect and caring for each other with suspicion and hatred, putting these and other natural differences into politics and dividing the people and preparing them for governance has become the public identity of the ruling party. If you don’t close prosperity in this situation, go ahead. It is not relieved. I am very excited about the consultative commission about transitional justice, where there is no transition and division, where there is a lot of propaganda that is destructive and destructive propaganda that is inciting the people to conflict, where there is not commitment to negotiate and negotiate and where there is no commitment to change politics from killing each other to negotiating. However, when we investigate the truth outside the propaganda discussion, we will find concrete facts that can clearly understand the following.
1) Spreading conflict and war- Yismula’s Discrimination and Discussion Preaching- Wandering for a calf where a cow is.
In our country, all regions in Oromia, Amhara, Tigray, Somalia and Afar regions, southern and western parts of our country are destroying the healthy and outdated relationships between regions and people to people relations, they are awakening the spirit of hate and suspicion, and provoking the people with their creative destructive propaganda, and provoking war and instability. Thinking about solving our political and relationship problems through discussion, discussion and negotiation. It’s not to be given. This kind of behavior that defeats the balance of faith between the government and the people, where millions of lives are lost, millions have been displaced, millions have stopped their education, millions have lost social services, and billions of resources that are used for current and necessary development for a thousand years, we are boasting and saying “you won’t defeat me” to consult” or negotiate with me. It means nothing more than empty propaganda. It doesn’t signify commitment to sustainable peace and stability unless it is used for useless political consumption. Therefore, we request the government/ruling party to provide a platform for discussion, negotiation and discussion that is inclusive and inclusive and trustworthy and acceptable by stakeholders and executives and to stop the ongoing and widespread war as the transition is tightened.
2) Political right question abducted and boring propaganda by the name of the joint council
In order to make the demand for power in our country a peaceful and democratic struggle, the political forces that are organized to work on basic national agendas by cooperating and negotiating with a common platform and procedures, the joint council is far from the establishment’s goal and mission to strengthen the ruling party system and the ruling party’s order to be obedient and executor. It is being done. The ruling party has taken control of all governmental institutions in the country, to fix the situation that has put the construction of democracy and peace and to replace it with a honest political system and procedure. The joint council that was founded voluntarily is moving without its purpose, so that the process can be corrected and assemble an election board will prolong its life without answering. It is difficult to accept that he has elected a new leadership and formed a new leader in the name of election. Since this move is against the current politics that is different from our current situation, we request that it be returned to its promise.
3) The right to free expression of ideas by amending the media law, making the name of the media and shutting down the institutions;
Even though Beltsigna preaches the respect of freedom of expression in public, it is in practice blocking constitutional stones through declarations, instructions and regulations. Those concerned are saying that the recent amendment to the media declaration is a sign of this suppression. This is also leading media centers to get off the stage, media professionals, rights advocates, activists and politicians to suffer, imprisonment and suffering. We urge you to stop this system that undermines peaceful and constructive practices that deprives actors freedom for democracy and sustainable development, nation building and social services and expansion of information, knowledge, experience and technology.
4) Praising transitional justice in the absence of transition;
Respecting the rule of law and building a free and neutral justice system free from the influence of the government/ruling party is the key to our democratic system and our peace. For this reason, transitioning our heritage and experience that has been rooted for more than half a century has been preached, but in practice we have not stopped from continuing what is normal. From yesterday to today- famous personalities- politicians, rights activists, artists, journalists, activists and innocent citizens in public. Because the lawful investigation has been done for the violations of rights and the executors are not taking justice. The government officials and the members of the congress and senior leaders of the ruling party did not escape from this rod. The transitional justice institution that is being established by the government has not been given any justice. No different result is expected from the dispersed commissions. In addition, saying that you will make a transitional justice system that has not been implemented during the regular government administration doesn’t give a sense of vulgarity. Therefore, we call for an inclusive, inclusive and trustworthy transitional justice system to be implemented and to make peace and stability possible.
5) Human rights activists and democracy partners – are they being encouraged or shamed?
Human rights advocates and lawyers and democracy builders and journalists, why do you follow the atrocities and atrocities that we are doing on the people? You are telling the world people… We are observing leaders and their employees not being advocates for bail for others but being killed, imprisoned, chased and displaced, their offices are packed and their properties are inherited and robbed, and in total they are subjected to suffering and suffering. We have reached a time where they are told to praise me and praise me by saying “I forgive you”. We have also seen threatening us by saying “I have forgiven you”. Even if we forgive you, we have not improved, we have seen it in practice. With this shameful and arrogant. The truth is that the respect of human rights and the practice of democracy will not be seen in the near future, so we call on the stakeholders to work together for the respect of human right.
6) The test of the neighboring countries, horn of Africa, continental and international diplomacy and relations;
Our country from neighboring to international stage deals with business and development, politics and diplomacy, people to people relations and borders and sovereignty. These are in terms of ownership and use of ports and seagates, dams built on cross-border rivers – currently the Renaissance dam, the current situation with neighboring countries – Eritrea, Sudan, Somalia, the terrorist activities seen in our area, from the world. Commercial organization to market and international power formation are all examples of this. When weighed together, these relations are not deeply studied and analyzed, carried out by temporary events and do not meet sustainable strategic objectives and goals. Therefore, any of our local/regional, continental or international foreign relations and diplomacy should be studied by expert detailed studies in every field. We urge Anchro to be based on the sustainable benefit of the country, development and sovereignty, people’s rights and dignity, unify and respect.
7) Is it the thinking of division parties and pluralism or the political arena that is dominated by dictatorship?
Day by day the prosperity and dictatorship of the ruler is increasing and increasing. The political arena is getting narrower and he is commenting. The freedom of political parties that are operating in opposition and the role they can play has been decided by press release. Preparing to call a peaceful demonstration, while it is a right that the constitution allows- it will imprison you, it will lead to serious harm. Opposition parties leaders and members, journalists who don’t praise the rulers or point out their shortcomings have been harassed, beaten, threatened and intimidated. Many will be imprisoned and mourned. Political parties have developed the common council to be an exchange of ideas and the development of the EPRDF with the well known approach and methods. The weapons, violations, malice and corruption that the EPRDF that was led by TPLF, are now being repeated with the prosperity of the heir. Who is this political confusion benefited from, what will it gain except destruction?! When we ask, the answer is “It’s not good for anyone, it’s not useful for anyone” so we ask the government to refrain from this destructive approach and work with constitutional responsibility and accountability system.
😎 Unresearched material development that led to displacement of citizens.
By the irresponsible will and decision of the ruling prosperity party officials, the initiative started in our capital city called “Corder development” has led to a huge socio-economic crisis and homelessness. This is the action taken without the participation of the society and stakeholders and political neutral professional research that is being spread to regional cities and cities and is spreading the pain across the country. In the process, businesses schools, clinics and health institutions, churches have been demolished. This “Corder development” which is being said to be a campaign material for the next election is due to the long term togetherness of the governors and their commitment to social-economics is to displace and disperse unwanted members of the community, so the work is being done without accountability, in a spirit of negligence and with a gun. Setting aside the establishment of the collapsed and many infrastructure demands that require priority, the precious resources of the country and people are not only being spent on roads, painting buildings and planting grass but also building palaces is inhuman.
We ask that this country’s sustainable and continuous development priority focus and approach that does not concern the lives of the citizens and the interest of the people and the country’s urgent peace and sustainable development and benefit.
It is possible to summarize the real political and socio-economic situation of our country as follows.
The hatred, distrust, suspicion and evil that has been built between the people and passed from generation to generation, the feeling of caring, respect, understanding and unity for different social and economic purposes has been sown among the citizens and the people and the people eating the seeds of destruction and destruction has been put into question. Conflicts and crimes are being noticed in the areas where the propaganda of the victimized and victimized and it is a threat that it will cause a lasting scar in the future. Dargual. This difficult and worrying event has been noticed by the members of the ruling party beyond the political differences has made the issue more worrying. Apart from this internal problem, but also from the neighboring countries and the international community we have on different issues, the social, business and economic, as well as development and diplomatic relations based on the social, commercial and economic relationship with development and narrow and short close-night view from a friendly and suspicious view. Dargon has faced a serious challenge on sustainable, peaceful, cooperation and healthy relationship. Therefore, we urge the government to ensure that our internal relations and our relations with foreign neighbors, partners, friends and the international community should be studied and based on a calculation of sustainable benefits, peace, acceptance, support and cooperation.
Finally, we call on political forces, stakeholders, the people and the international community to work together according to their role to the solution to the armed struggle that is heard in every direction and the question of people’s survival and the armed struggle in order to achieve a peaceful, comprehensive, inclusive, national understanding and reconciliation//
A government that uses war as a means of control is a problem for peace and development//
Caucus of the opposition parties (Caucus)
December 09 /2017 E. M, Addis Ababa.

“It has been widely reported by the government that the Oromo freedom army group which is called “OLF shene” has been reported by the government media. We are looking at the fact that the cooperative parties mentioned by this name are part of the peace. In connection with this, an individual and some youths who are said to be the leader of the armed group and some youths have been seen signing agreements with regional leaders. The day after the agreement, Addis Ababa has been attacked by continuous gunfire in different areas for three days. We have confirmed that a mother was shot to death by the shooting. We have come to know that this action has happened in different cities of Oromia” (Joint Statement from the Enat Party, All Ethiopian Unity Party (AEUP), Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party (EPRP) & Amhara Ghinoians Movement on Current Issues, 11.12.2024).
The four parties are sending signals and warning about the current affairs. The Prosperity Party and the Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali should listen to this. As this advice and wisdom should rattle them in. The status quo is just dangerous and disingenuous. That’s why ENAT, AEUP, EPRP and AGM are speaking their mind. Because this is the only way they can address these serious matters.
As the parties continues to speak out. This Press Release is just showing what is wrong in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. The Prosperity Party has failed the nation and it doesn’t get any better.
Just read this…
“The process related to this has raised doubts among the cooperative parties. Our doubts arise not only from the lack of transparency in the agreement but also from such incidents. Doesn’t the agreement include disarming? Since the city administration didn’t even stop fireworks, how can they allow people to enter fully armed and shootings for days? Where is the force that used to go to the Addis Ababa, who traveled hundreds of kilometers with the identity of “came to create trouble in the city” and the elderly who came back hundreds of kilometers from Addis Ababa? Isn’t there any liability to be investigated and held accountable after this? What was the previous relationship with the individuals and groups that the government has signed a peace agreement? What is the miracle that Addis Ababa has come to an end after two exhausting attempts to reach Tanzania? Is it planned to put psychological pressure on the people of Addis Ababa? It has us asking questions like this” (Joint Statement from the Enat Party, All Ethiopian Unity Party (AEUP), Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party (EPRP) & Amhara Ghinoians Movement on Current Issues, 11.12.2024).
“We strongly urge the government to stop its happiness and pretense and give it a lasting peace and to negotiate through neutral observers and to take practical measures for this so that the bloodshed wars in Amhara and Oromia regions get an end once and for all, and declare an immediate ceasefire” (Joint Statement from the Enat Party, All Ethiopian Unity Party (AEUP), Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party (EPRP) & Amhara Ghinoians Movement on Current Issues, 11.12.2024).
When you read this, it just shows how things are failing in the Republic. The state isn’t bringing stability or peace. No, it is creating more conflict and harm. The danger and suffering are happening everywhere. As long as the warlord and the Prime Minister himself gets to consolidate power. That’s what is occurring. This is the real story… and what they are up too. Just showing how things are moving along. The state is using lethal force and using the authorities against its enemies. Meanwhile, using fronts and lies to deceive the population in the will of generating sustainable peace. Alas, that is what the four parties are calling out as well.
We know a ceasefire and a possible peace will only happen when there is a possibility to trick or to have an upper-hand of the leadership of the rebels or the militias, which are in conflict with the state. Just so these can eat for a moment and later be dismissed as useless. That’s what the PM wants, and this is how he works. Offer a token of peace and later re-arrest or use the authorities to get rid of the ones who stood in his path. That’s why we cannot see anyone foolish enough to trust or think that the PM would honour an agreement. This would only be done, if he believes his previous enemy is weak enough to accept an agreement and be under his spell. Peace.
