The Democratic-Republic of Ogadenia Declaration of Independence

E-mail Print PDF

Ogaden National FlagFor the righteousness of our intentions,
For our inalienable rights as human beings,

And by the Authority of the indigenous people of Ogadenia, We declare the right to be a free and Independent State. The long history of suffering at the hands of the destructive and oppressive Ethiopian Government shall be abolished and all political connection exonerated. 

The people, free and independent, shall institute a new Government to preserve and protect their rights to all acts entitled to Independent States and to effect their safety and happiness. The Democratic-Republic of Ogadenia shall establish peaceful relations with neighbor States and all nations.  From this day forth, the people of Ogadenia shall no longer:

 

  • Be deprived of the right to trial by jury.
  • Have our homes looted,
  • Have our villages burnt.
  • Have our livestock slaughtered.
  • Our women raped.
  • Remain isolated from the world.
  • Will our boarders remain sealed from reporters, and economic trade.
  • Have humanitarian organizations exiled.
  • Suffer a manmade famine and a war against us.

No longer denied our inalienable rights as human beings and no longer suffer the longstanding, widespread reign of terror.

We, the Democratic-Republic of Ogadenia, therefore, declare that our Independence is recognized and that diplomatic relations be established with the United States of America as an ally against terror.

I'm sorry, but you are an idiot. That was the most illogical, irrational response to the freedom of ogaden and you don’t have the understanding of what is like to have your freedom after under occupation for over half a century.

This bogus ridiculous claim is false. I was in jijjiga recently and the mood is much better among Somalis there than the ogadeni people in Minnesota. The city was celebrating eid and new year in magnificent fashion, all the talk was about the new freshmen entering jijjiga university and functioning with their lives compared to the diaspora khat chewers who do nothing but sit in the project houses funding clan groups to fight for a "free" Ogaden by throwing grenades at crowds in stadiums, and shooting at people lined up in polling stations. You hate this government? Fine. We all have this in common but this independance is a baseless joke. Such hypocrites. Blame the government for it's ethnic policy then go support the onlf, also a racial ethnic group based on the superiority of one ethnic group to the rest in Ethiopia. Stop creating a mess and go start cooperating in the devellopment of your region which will forever remain a part of Ethiopia whether you like it or not.

Ethiopia for life.
