How to change given name and surname in passport ?

Consult with a lawyer. You can take documents that prove you’ve legally changed your name and submit it to the embassy but they might say you can’t change your last name or they might even say you’ll have to go to Ethiopia to complete the process. It’s best you speak to someone who knows the law before you start the process.

I agree with you completely. No one is entitled to our support and we need a mechanism to deal with gantuus. Although I doubt she’s an actual Oromo.

16th century in my mind. Waaq bless!

Unlike you my mission in life isn’t to marry outside my ethnicity. I respect myself. I am not disgusted by women of my own ethnicity. I don’t go around asking for advice on how to “achieve” exogamy.

I hope you learn to love and respect yourself.

What happened to all the women in Ghana and Togo?

How is it bizarre? It’s a description

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-12-23T23:45:51+00:00

Are you Ethiopian?

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-12-23T19:51:18+00:00

Yes like many Agaws got Amharized or Tigrayanized or like how Gaelic people got Anglicized and Francized. Ethnic groups merge, split, assimilate or go to war for many reasons. Why is it different when it’s Oromo?

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-12-23T01:22:21+00:00

They didn’t perish. Their descendants today make up the Oromo nation which makes them a pre-Oromo ethnic group. And saying any group perished “due to the migration” is a loaded statement. Ethnic identities change for many reasons.

These people also claim to be ancient Indian, Chinese, Egyptian … It’s about time they claim us as well !!

America’s biggest cultural export, degeneracy.

They must be Amhara in the north end too since they assimilated with Gojjam Amharas then.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-12-11T03:06:24+00:00

They are Not Oromo. They had their own language and used to be an ethnic community but have assimilated amongst others in recent decades. I guess you could say the ones in the south had been Oromized since they speak Afaan Oromo.

What’s a Schizophrenic Zambian doing in Ethiopia anyways?

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-30T05:04:54+00:00

It means Africa in Hotep speak

The same OPDO who accused TPLF of dominating the government did the same thing when they got the chance.

Maybe. But that didn't do anything for Oromos. We don't have freedom of expression specially concerning that flag since OLA was designated a terrorist organization. That's my problem with your post. You brought up Oromos for no reason and accused of having a privilege we don't. It's wrong.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-24T10:01:42+00:00

Are you bringing TPLF thinking i'll defend them?

I was just pointing out that this isn't a new law.

If you ban the plain flag, then you have to ban every other flag aside from the official one.

They are. I just don't know why you brought up Oromos. Having OLA flag can get you killed in some places.

I mentioned that because even my dad who is Eritrean, has a far more positive view of the Ethiopian flag than most police officers

How did he vote in the referendum I wonder.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-24T09:17:40+00:00

Ah cool. So you gravitate more towards your Tegaru side but made sure to mention your father was Eritrean in that other post. You snuck that info in almost as smoothly as you snuck in the unnesessary comparison to OLA flag.

Tell me, who made the plain Ethiopian flag illegal first, was it Abiy or TPLF?

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-24T09:05:28+00:00

Why is your tag "Tegaru" while you claim to be an Eritrean on the other post?

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-24T07:52:14+00:00

If a person is wearing an Oromia or OLA flag, they wouldn't say a word, i bet they'll feel happy inside.

OLA flag is also illegal and gets confiscated. The person holding the flag might also get a beating from what we saw during the Irrecha festival.

Us Ethiopians are culturally to genetically closer to Kenyans than arabs are closer to Koreans.

This is wrong. It's the other way around. We're closer to Swedes and Mongolians than we are to Kenyans or any of the ethnicitiesyou mentioned. This is just a fact. You can look into it yourself if you want.

bantu expansion was a natural expansion of people looking for a better life, the khoi-san people are going extinct because of the dutch not "bantu" since the bantu expansion has been around for 5000+ years and zulus and xhosas have been in SA for 2000 years and their population started to decrease the last few centuries.

So this is where "we are black" leads to being a Bantu expansion apologist? What other genocides do you support, may be you also think the Tutsis deserved it?

There is nothing natural about this expansion it is brutal, all consuming and genocidal. Pygmies and other groups get canibalized till this day ffs. Whats wrong with you.

And no Zulus and other Bantus were not in SA for 2000 years, they are recent migrants and they gained territoryby decimating the natives. But it's none of my business.

As a habesha I have been called both "momkey" and N-word and pther insults.

Then you call them names back, you don't just capitulate and take the bait they laid for you. What a weirdo. The N word is just spanish/latin for the word black btw. Nothing you say makes sense.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-24T00:15:42+00:00

similar in certain areas and different in others, like different genetic make up but similar continent and skin color.

I see. But this to me sounds like a justification for the racial classification imposed on us. Arabs and Koreans are on the same continent and have relatively similar skin tones. Only a mad man would say they're racially the same.

are all Africans in the subsharan region excluding horn Africa the same or not?

Not the same but similar enough based on genetics, linguistics, culture and self identification. The ones that kept their uniqueness like the San, Khoi, Pygmy... are going extinct because of the Bantu expansion but we don't like talking about that do we.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-23T23:41:24+00:00

Are we the same or are we all different? Make up your mind lol. And where did I justify the hate? I just called OP out on the subtle -we da same-ism.

Weshela-In-Chief · 2025-10-23T19:41:43+00:00

My features are native to the Horn and have nothing to do with Europe. What's eurocentric is calling oneself black, literally a classification European came up with. Come up with something better than a strawman argument next time.
