The Gojeb River is eastward-flowing tributary of the Omo River in Ethiopia.

Its canyon provided the former Kingdom of Kaffa an important defensive frontier, as described by Mohammed Hassan: — Mohammed Hassan, The Oromo of Ethiopia: a History 1570-1860 (1994)

  • The hot valley of the Gojeb, infested with both terrible mosquitos and tsetse flies, covered with tall grass and dense forest, made rapid cavalry attack and retreat virtually impossible. This natural protection ... was further strengthened by elaborate and highly complex man-made fortifications which protected all the entrances to that country. (en)

  • The Gojeb River is eastward-flowing tributary of the Omo River in Ethiopia. It rises in the mountains of Guma, flowing in almost a direct line its confluence with the Omo at 7°20′25″N 37°21′17″E / 7.34028°N 37.35472°E. Its canyon provided the former Kingdom of Kaffa an important defensive frontier, as described by Mohammed Hassan: The hot valley of the Gojeb, infested with both terrible mosquitos and tsetse flies, covered with tall grass and dense forest, made rapid cavalry attack and retreat virtually impossible. This natural protection ... was further strengthened by elaborate and highly complex man-made fortifications which protected all the entrances to that country. — Mohammed Hassan, The Oromo of Ethiopia: a History 1570-1860 (1994) Because of its location between the two kingdoms, Alexander Bulatovich, who crossed the river in January 1897, reported its valley was uninhabited, yet "abounds in wild goats and antelopes. Leopards and lions are encountered here. Larger animals, such as elephants and rhinoceroses, stay lower on the river's course, near to where the Gojeb flows into the Omo." The Gojeb is the location of the , Ethiopia's first Independent Power Project. This 150-MW hydroelectric plant started commercial operation in 2004. The project was developed by Mohammed International Development Research Organization and Companies (MIDROC), which intends to sell the output to the Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation. (en)

Берёт начало из безымянного болота западнее леса Ячи-Дэн-Чака. 7 января 1898 года долину реки посещал Александр Булатович. Он даёт ей следующее описание: Рѣка Годжебъ беретъ начало въ горахъ Гумы и впадаетъ въ р. Омо. Въ этомъ мѣстѣ ширина ея до 40 шаговъ, глубина 11⁄4 арш., теченіе такое быстрое, что переходъ вбродъ очень труденъ; долина Годжеба, окруженная горами Каффы, составляетъ пограничную полосу между этими двумя областями и не заселена. Она изобилуетъ дикими козами, антилопами. Встрѣчаются тутъ и леопарды, и львы, болѣе же крупные звѣри, какъ слонъ и носорогъ, держатся ниже по теченію, вблизи отъ впаденія Годжеба въ Омо. (ru)

Esta protecção natural ... foi reforçada pela elaboração e alta complexidade de fortificações que protegia todas as entradas para aquele país. Devido à sua localização entre os dois reinos, (em russo: Алекса́ндр Ксаве́рьевич Булато́вич; 26 de setembro de 1870 – 5 de Dezembro de 1919), que o atravessou em janeiro de 1897, informou que o seu vale era quase desabitado, mas "está cheio de cabras e antílopes, leopardos e leões são encontradas aqui. Animais maiores, como elefantes e rinocerontes, encontravam-se mais perto de onde o Gojeb flui para o Rio Omo. " Neste rio localiza-se a , que foi o primeiro projecto do seu tipo na Etiópia independente. Esta barragem Hidrelétrica de 150 MW entrou em operação comercial em 2004. O projeto foi desenvolvido por Mohammed para o Desenvolvimento Internacional Organização de Pesquisa e Empresas (MIDROC), que pretende vender a produção eléctrica para a Etíope Electric Power Corporation.
