The Karrayyu Oromo (also Kerrayu, Karrayyuu) are an Oromo subgroup inhabiting the Awash Valley banks of Abadir and Merti area in central Ethiopia.[1] They are pastoralists.[2] The Karrayyu Oromo neighbor the Afar and Argobba people.[3] The Karrayyu Oromo claim they originate from the extinct Harla ethnic group.[4]
