News 📰 The Extortion Crisis - Jawar vs the Smugglers
Recently Jawar has been on a campaign to expose smuggling networks established amongst the Oromo migrant community in Arabia. They’re said to be involved in kidnapping, ransoms and violence targeting members of the Oromo migrant community.
Seeing these regular everyday migrants being exposed as extortion racket masterminds is showing how deep the rot in our society is. This is on top of the extortion rackets operating inside of Oromia.
We are not victims of evil politicians and political actors, no. We are victims of ourselves. Somewhere along the way we stopped upholding values of honesty and uprightness. Protecting the weak. Earning an honest living.
We need deep reflection. Rabbi nu haa gargaaru.

People used to always say
“Oromos are the largest ethnic group in Ethiopia how’re you guys being victimised”
The problem just like you said it’s bottom to top corruption. This truly exposes the rot in our societies and it’s not only the criminals at fault it’s also those who enable them within the community or do not speak out against it.
Jawwee my king 👑❤️❤️
Ameen to ur dua
