According to the Garri and the Gabra Community historians, the Gabra people are not Oromo but, pure Somali. However, they were enslaved by the Borana. Subsequently adopted the Borana language simulated the Oromo pagan culture.
Am Gabra and am proud to be Gabra.Mzee one day one tym I will reach you.you have so many history I have see your which contains many I had heard before but nobody explain like you.Am doing my research research on how we Gabra meet Borana..I personally prefered Rendille,Ghari and wasomali as my friend.Becoz our culture are the same from my research..
If you go to a place called buurhakaba,bulifulay,dinsor,walaweyn,qoryoley,kunturwarey,and many more,the Garre still refer to themselves as Karre and speak a language called mahaaw.the rendille too still speak that language
Garri and Gabra are pure Somali propel colonized and abused by Borana pagan . The good news is the new young Somali generation is welcoming and supporting Garrr and Gabra people well being by any means necessary.
😂😂 amateurs ....gabra are boranas ...born of a dying borana man..they infant born was named garbich rabbi ...get the real stories from from the owners of gadaa..... If they ain't borana why speak borana????..why not Somali....not even a single gabra knows Somali ... Get yours heads straight. ...and FYI if boranas are pagans so are the rest of the horners.
@@borumohamed7042 why ajuran and garee speak language similar to borana. Not all somalis speak one language . As somali we speak six language but famous one is mahaa. Forexample. Mother we call. Mama, adha, Hindho, habar, hoyoo or hayoo and ngoi. We have different dialect in any language. Some people in southern somalia also speak similar to borana language.
thank you, the issue of Gabra being Oromo or Somali needs serious discussion btw the Gabra elders. I have read the works of Gunther Schlee and I find his work to hold more water and that Gabra are closer to Somali than to Oromo.
Garre and Karre are one and the same. It's Garre koofar that use Karre coz they don't have a "g" sound in their af mahaaw (af Garre). Gabra are part of Garre who are part of the Somali Wayne.
Gabra and gare is one tribe. Language is due to settlement and don't define ethnicity. Speaking English won't make me British. Gabra, gare and Sakuuye is one
Despite the dark days of 18th century Borans,chased moving away Gharri by Horses __ blocked 1/4 of Moving away Gharri populace at Galan Dawa ,captured Gabra rejected slavery name of Garbich and preferred to be called Gabra rather. Since then Borans,Gharri and Gabra intermarried up to date. Although it's good such videos for 21st century of above communities as a history.
all are one people one blood fear Allah dont create enemity between garri borana and gabra we are one language and even somalii we have same origins sharing many similarities even if we borana sticks to ancient religion now we are muslim following pathways of Abraham who's is not an idolator ; we love every muslim our neighbor and we dont deferencite between them may Allah swt forgive you and delate that record of enemosity it will testify against your word; you talk from hate of your heart
@@ulimmaorto8187 I'm from banna clan of Gare. My clan are in Gabra and sakuye too and are known as jiruwa.there are darawa(adotile),kalmasa, tubadi, kalula,doliyo(birkaya)subuktire (Erwede) bursuni and many more clan both in Gabra and Gare too
@@sayidadam9794 lol Fanta aren’t Oromo No one is Warra Galla Or gaal as southern Somalia say your remanants of Waaq religion old Somalia believed Anyone who remained as it was Galla Rendille case is they rejected their own peoples and practiced Waaq
Okay! This is 16th century history. Were these communities existed before that era? I may like to know from where did those 30 men horse raiders exactly came from? Within Ethiopia or Somalia? Prior to the coming of Islam what was the religious practices of Gabra/Garri and the wider somali? I believe Karre/Garre/Gabra were also not born into Islam unless the tribe itself emerged after coming of Islam into existence therefore stop despising others in there beliefs because Allaah knows the best. Same despised might change and become more pious. Anyway, I have learnt something from you though i dont know if this applies to Gabra MIGOS or to all Gabras in Chalbi desert. I am not rejecting the story of raids and cultural practices of borana though, because migrations and territory expansions has been existed for ages since in human history.
Gabra were not enslaved by borana, but speak the language because they are descendants of borana women and somali men, and the children learned their mothers tongue especially since the somali returned to their homelands. And even then their dialect has somali influence.
With the ambition and dream of establishing a great somalia nation, somalia used to claim a wider land which was extended up to Awash river in Ethiopia. They used to refer to all Hararge, Bale, Arsi and Karrayu people as Somali Abbo. This means somali tribes speaking Afar Oromo. They waged war on Ethiopia around the end of 1960th. Unfortunately, they have been defeated by the heroic Oromo people. Still today they are trying to realize their dream on the Ethiopian somali -Oromia borders. This man speaking on the you tube is a messenger playing a part of that campaign of forming great somalia. Otherwise, there is no doubt that Gabras are Oromos even more than the Boranas. The Unity of the Oromo people is now becoming more stronger than any time in the past. The Gabra Oromos should never be misguided by mercenaries sent to them from the Garri side. Even we Oromos will claim that Garris are also partially Oromos as they are not pure somalis, but mixed race of Oromo & Somali.
Lol defeated Somalia🤣 we defeated all of Ethiopia until cuba Russia and other countries came to aid, don’t forget OLF had bases in Somalia, and oromos in kenya voted to join Somalia
There waa no name oromo, we used to call you gaallo madow, white people picked that word and your name was gala lol a pagan barbarian we used to sell to the Arabs stfu
The Borana and Somali have the same origins, the Borana are from a father named Somaalo and Samaale is for the Somali its probably the same father but the Somalis became Muslim first and they speak a very clear language Oromo isnt a clear language
@@amosnaftali2495 Elders know there ancestry and can trace back their linage. You may need education on Oromo elders as our elders know more about there forefathers and ancestors then any historian will. GABRA/Garre ARE OROMO. I can easily find much evidence online aswell.
I don’t think so.Somalis are close to 20 million people.Found in somalia,kenya,Djibouti and Ethiopia.Borana,Garre and Gabra came from the same farther.
Gabra is not among Garre they were oromo pure they were not somali.... this is propaganda...... they were still killing our somali tribe Garee Gar dherhe Gar samale
@@geletoz not all Garre are dir.according to oral tradition, its the quranyow faction that trace their ancestry to dir while tuuf trace to Gardhere samale. Generally, majority of quranyow are haplogroup T while tuuf are E
@@box5319 thanks bro, I didn't know quranyow was an equal ancestor like Dir..i am Dir myself..Gar dheere Samaale. Samaale is where isir starts and matters.
This is a false history. Gabras are pure Oromos. There are dozens of evidences that Gabras are Oromos. Leave alone Gabras, even Garris are a mixed race of Oromo and Somali. Abbootiin keenna yoo eebbifatan maal jedhan, waaqi salgan booranaa ; waaqi sagaltama gabra nutiksi jedhan. Gabra jechuun bishaan yookiin malkaa balloo jechuu dha.
People can speak different language but the identity, culture and DNA doesn't change .just read history , learn their cultures and get ask the Garre or Gabra elders .
Kuleni Gobena gabra ,boran , rendile, burji , afar are all somali big family and we make great again somali like border is awash river ,kenya is border somali greater is marsabit ,isiolo , Tana river and lamu coast we stand somali greater
I however don't agree that Borans enslaved Gabra whatsoever, Gabra adopted the language due to Boran hegemony. Borans terrorized the Somalioid communities, and through that most adopted the Borana dialect of Oromo language.
Borana terrorize the Somali Garri and Gabra because their culture demands to kill someone before marriage proposal. They must proof killing of someone that means no killing no woman.
For sure, this is why I hate Somali. This people never tell true story even to their children. Gabra is oromo, how did you know, they ask you to all this to not ask? KAREE means in afan oromo = pig. This is fact. This pig is lying so hard.
