Abstract

Qeerroo fi Qaarree from the whole parts of Oromia region emerged to stop mass massacre, arrest, forced expulsion, land grabbing and marginalization of Oromo people through strong peaceful struggle in Oromia region since 2014 G.C. Here the study is about Qeerroo and Qaarree (youth Male and female) bitter struggle against TPLF, achievement that overthrew TPLF, and foundation of transitional government and the complexes since the transition period. Both primary and secondary source of data were used to strong based evidence. Interview with selected prominent/figure Qeerroo and Qaarree who have organized the protest movements including in depth focus group discussion were employed. Besides, documents, news and features from private and government legal websites were used as secondary source of data. Further to get necessary information from both aforementioned sources of data, researcher own observation and document analysis were employed as data gathering tools. A qualitative approach was used to analyse the gathered data. Lastly Qeerroo and Qaarree (youth Male and female) have conceptual political meaning than the literal one. Qeerroo and Qaarree bitter struggle movement within five years is a cause for transitional government and saved Ethiopia from disintegration. In this regard, social media plays a great role to organize Qeerroo and Qaarree (unarmed young force) peaceful struggle. The complex is the transitional government led by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed failed to keep what his government promised. Rather his government becomes the second tyrant TPLF, because arrest, mass massacre, marginalization among Oromo’s by Abiy Ahmed divisive and hateful speech, abduction and rape by military wing continues. Southern and Western parts of Oromia fall under unconstitutional command post for about years.
