The critical concern of this article is to investigate the common drawback of politicizing indigeneity against Ethiopianness, indigenous in Regional States’ Constitutions and its impediment to building a mono-politico-economic community. However, nowadays, Ethiopia encounters sporadic ethnic conflicts, all-out civil war, and massive displacement due to the indigeneity dichotomy, where politicizing indigeneity as an expression of identity politics poses such problems. Politicizing indigeneity creates a double whammy of discrimination against individuals or groups labeled non-indigenous and Ethiopia has experienced acute social disintegration. Thus, Ethiopianness is in peril as a result of indigeneity’s politicization. Threats to ethnic lines must be handled through multiculturalism. The more Ethiopian politics adapts to the creation of Ethiopianness, the better citizens would understand the idea of “divided we fall, united we stand”. The study used a qualitative research method with explanatory. In terms of data sources, both primary and secondary sources were used
