Oromumma is the manifestation of the Oromo Culture its traditional dresses, its poetry and oral traditions.
Dr Asafa Jalata explores the concept of Oromummaa in a broad and detailed ways in his book, Oromummaa. The book also identifies and explores the nature of Oromo political behavior and how Oromummaa affects Oromo politics, and why some Oromo elites in the diaspora engage in destructive behavior. Although the book demonstrates the unevenness of the development of Oromo nationalism as the result of several structural problems, the Oromo movement is currently in the process of confronting its obstacles and marching towards inevitable victory.
