The Asmara Group schism should not divide the Oromo people
OromoLiberationFront.info - August 10, 2008

The Asmara Group, which is dishonestly continuing to call itself the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), has been split into two albeit to advance the programmes of the enemies of the Oromo struggle. Both factions of the Asmara Group openly pledge allegiance to Ethiopia rather than Oromia. Their allegiance to Ethiopia has been further symbolized by their repeated waving of the Ethiopian flag at meetings and public rallies in London, Washington DC and elsewhere. The OLF stands for independent Oromia not Ethiopia. Thus, we would like to reiterate once again that the factions of the Asmara Group cannot call themselves the OLF.

What is more, we are concerned that the two factions of the Asmara Group are engaged in shameless acts of wilfully and knowingly dividing the Oromo people along regional lines to garner support for their own sinister hidden motive. The hidden motive of these factions of the Asmara Group is to weaken the unity of the Oromo people in order to promote their anti-Oromo agenda in collaboration with Abyssinians. Read More.
