261.5.5 How well do local governance structures comply with indicators of goodgovernance (participation, transparency, accountability?)1.5.6 Are current governance settings considered legitimate at the local level?Participation, transparency and accountability are the constitutive characteristics ofgadaa governance and of the Borana customary procedures in general. However, theinternal mechanism only works within the Borana community, and, particularly therural community.Customary governance is considered legitimate by the Borana.It is also considered legitimate by other pastoral groups living among the Borana, asthe Gabra Migo, or other pastoralists occasionally interacting with the Borana, such asGuji-Oromo or the Somali Mareexaan, especially in relation to pastoral use of naturalresources.However, this legitimacy only operates at the informal level and with reference to the rural setting. The relevance and influence of customary institutions on town matters,where different ethnic groups mainly live, and on governmental politics is considered irrelevant, even when town-based (or governmental) decisions affects use of, access ofand management of natural resources in the countryside. Over the last 15 years majorinter-ethnic conflicts occurred as a consequence of this type of town-drawn decisions.

Warya Voltage You know whats funny? Degoodiye, Garre basically piggy backed Sade into Liibaan and even today Booraan refer to Sade there as a "dominant group" while they are basically "encroaching strangers, living under Booraane hegenomy" lol.

Its annoying When You see these Moyaale, Garre, Degoodiye hate for Sade sometimes When Sade basically opened up those lands for them, behind the Reer Xassan conquerers.

You don't know Somalis man. Asxaan maleh and they are enemies to each other. Chances are these Somalis don't even see the Borana/Oromo as a threat but view the Mareexaan who are protecting them from Oromo domination as such.

if sade 'dominates' this district, then its upon it to rise up and liberate it from tigray tyranny and oppression instead of assisting bare hiraale and his jihad to bring more somali land and people under tigray oppression and enslavement

Soomali cuqdad baa lafaha ka gashay. Boorane wax baa loo ogolyahay laakin Soomali kale wax malo agolo. Soomali will take isticmaar from a Tigray and even worse a Oromo rather then inay Soomali kale wax la qeybsadaan
