 The Orma
Orma women were, from a Western point of view, completely subservient, to the men.
But with each side entrenched, and the Pakomo never quite having forgiven the Orma for encroaching on their territory, it often lead to killings, as well as an increase in tension.
The Orma people had come south as a result of famine (or was it war?) in Ethiopia, many years before, and had settled in the Tana River area.

 ORMA: A High-Performance MAC Protocol for Fiber-Optic LANs/MANs
The data rate, D, of the ORMA network is set to 1 Gb/s, the length of the ORMA network, L, is set either to 10 km, 50 km, or 100 km, and the number of attached stations, N, is either 10, 50, or 100.
Figure 11 illustrates the fairness of the ORMA protocol by showing the fraction of throughput allocated to each station as a function of its index (i.e., position in the folded bus).
The throughput of the ORMA protocol is higher than that of the CRMA protocol because the size of the fields (overhead) used for packet reservation in the CRMA protocol is bigger than that in the ORMA protocol [13].

In the oRMA, the nRoA is installed as the CoA for the oRoA (oRMA becomes a global HA) which facilitates persistent forwarding of traffic arriving on the oRoA address towards the nRMA.
The oRMA must not therefore start forwarding via the nRMA until sufficient time is given for the RREP to return to the nFA via the nRMA.
When moving to a nRMA that is using GFA mode, from an oRMA in Nested, Concat or GFA mode, the nRMA provides the oRMA with a SH CoA and Context Transfer is used to move the HA/HoA state to the nRMA to support RA layer GFA forwarding in advance of RA layer RREQ/RREP hand-off.

Some 1,200 Pokomo agricuralists were forced to flee their homes to escape the fighting and sought sanctuary in a catholic mission in the village of Tarasaa, Pius Murithi, Assistant Development Coordinator for the international nongovernmental organisations Caritas told IRIN on Tuesday.

 Chapter12
In the mid-1980s, the Orma Council of Elders effectively admitted that it was no longer able to enforce the rules that maintained the local commons.
The Orma case study shows the way that external factors can combine to induce reform in the demand for changes at three levels: property rights, composition of interest groups, and legislation in terms of rule formulation and enforcement.
The Butana case is a classic example of a central government’s imposing policies that destroy a functional common-property regime; the Orma case shows a central government assuming the rule-enforcement function from a customary authority that had lost the ability to enforce rules.
