The article about Oromia is a very racist and divisive article intended to spread false and tiwisted information. It is aim is nothing more than to promote separatist propaganda and distroy Ethiopia as a nation. It is a very biased pro-Oromo antiAmhara article. bek —the preceding comment is by 64.229.248.187 - 01:39, 16 December 2004: Please sign your posts!

I think bek did not read or could not read, because I do not see any of the things he is accusing the article for. Could it be he is describing himself, and may be his own supermacist Amhara people?

Bek... is talking about some thing that is not the article talking about. But his mind is blinded by the hatrate he devloped in him.

please bek, be open mind,

Bek's comment has been there for quite a while, and is in response to a much earlier version of this article. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:22, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, by now the Article is certainly not biased anymore, as it indeed was before. Much interesting information about Oromo culture was lost however. It would be nice if somebody could add this information again while keeping out the clear bias.

I have added information about the regional capital, Adama (which now has its own article in Wikipedia). I know that the selection of Adama as the capital was controversial, and I knew I could not mention Adama without also mentioning the controversy. I tried to keep NPOV.

The capital city of Oromia is Finfinne (Addis Ababa). The decision to move the city to Adama was against the constitution and purely a political decision. No one except the Oromo people has the right over thier land. The Amara elite fear the very name of Oromia and Oromo. Now the city in another political decision moved back to Finfinne. Those who deny themsels the truth die from its hunger.

I think the article was fairly clear regarding the Adama controversy (I wrote that, hoping to adhere to a neutral POV). Anyway, thanks for that update, I had not read anything about the capital moving again. I just found three articles from Walta Information Center. [1] [2] [3] I guess this didn't make the international news, what with the recent post-election events. Normally, one would have expected this sort of news to turn up on allafrica.com. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 04:54, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
