The exponential growth of the Oromo population is amazing. Somalis would be a minority in Puntland and Somaliland at this rate. The election was a good exercise, but in practical terms, it won't change anything.

Is this from the diversity brochure

AUN

Is that why it is taking so long to report the final results. Or is Biixi back with his old bag of tricks? The vote count should have been over in a day or two.

We are talking about the wrong and not asking the right. Regardless of numbers, the picture is how will this change the lives of the voters?

Rendille, In the spirit of reconciliation, Somalis are moving on, it is time for you to move on as well,

Since Farmajo can't run for another term, his legacy assuming he wins should be giving a Roble a hand. Roble should indeed stick with his boss.

You never know! It must suck to be Kheyr . He didn't stick with his boss, and didn't gain anything from joining the opposition

Statement by President Joe Biden on the Crisis in Ethiopia MAY 26, 2021 • STATEMENTS AND RELEASES I am deeply concerned by the escalating violence and the hardening of regional and ethnic divisions in multiple parts of Ethiopia. The large-scale human rights abuses taking place in Tigray, including widespread sexual violence, are unacceptable and must end. Families of every background and ethnic heritage deserve to live in peace and security in their country. Political wounds cannot be healed through force of arms. Belligerents in the Tigray region should declare and adhere to a ceasefire, and Eritrean and Amhara forces should withdraw. Earlier this week, the UN Office of Humanitarian Affairs warned that Ethiopia could experience its first famine since the 1980s because of this protracted conflict. All parties, in particular the Ethiopian and Eritrean forces, must allow immediate, unimpeded humanitarian access to the region in order to prevent widespread famine. The United States urges Ethiopia’s leaders and institutions to promote reconciliation, human rights, and respect for pluralism. Doing so will preserve the unity and territorial integrity of the state, and ensure the protection of the Ethiopian people and the delivery of urgently needed assistance. The Government of Ethiopia and other stakeholders across the political spectrum should commit to an inclusive dialogue. Working together, the people of Ethiopia can build a shared vision for the country’s political future and lay the foundation for sustainable and equitable economic growth and prosperity. The United States is committed to helping Ethiopia address these challenges, building on the longstanding ties between our two nations and working with the African Union, United Nations, and other international partners. U.S. Special Envoy for the Horn of Africa Jeff Feltman is leading a renewed U.S. diplomatic effort to help peacefully resolve the interlinked conflicts across the region, including a resolution of the dispute over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam that meets the needs of all parties. Special Envoy Feltman will return to the region next week and keep me apprised of his progress. America’s diplomacy will reflect our values: defending freedom, upholding universal rights, respecting the rule of law, and treating every person with dignity.

They are making with countries surrounding Ethiopia apart from Somalia, Eritrea, and Djibouti.
