Gurgura

Gurgura is one of the four woredas in the chartered city of Dire Dawa in Ethiopia. It is named for an ethnic group which lives in the area, the Gurgura; because there are records of a subgroup of the Nole Oromo with that name, as well as a sub-clan of the Somali Dir clan, it is unclear which one of these groups this woreda is named for. The administrative center of Gurgura is Melka Jebdu.
