Oromo Liberation Army, the armed wing of the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), commanders claim they were not informed by OLF leaders that there had been an agreement to demobilize following their move from Eritrea to Ethiopia.

At least three different political parties are now competing for support among Oromos, Ethiopia's most populous ethnic group.
