== Overview ==
The town is reported to have telephone service, a post office and electricity, as well as at least one primary and one secondary school, but no financial institutions.〔("Socio-economic profile of the Guji Zone" ) Government of Oromia Region (last accessed 26 May 2008)〕 The electrical power was introduced by a branch of the Ethiopian Electric Light and Power Authority (EELPA), and in January 1961 a diesel-driven 120 kW electric power plant for the town was completed.〔("Local History in Ethiopia" ) (pdf) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 27 May 2008)〕 A 2004 report states that Negele Borana is supplied with electricity by the Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation (the successor utility to the EELPA) from the national grid.〔Woreda administration sources, as quoted in ( ''Final Report for Aposto-Wendo-Negele'' (World Bank Report E1546, vol. 1) ), pp. 71f〕 There is also an airport. Negele Military Base, an important installation of the Ethiopian Army, is located to the northeast.
Philip Briggs describes Negele Borana as "something of a frontier town, a cultural boiling pot that is predominantly Oromo but also has strong Somali, Borena, and Muslim influences. ... Negele's distinctive character and cultural blend are personified in one of the most lively and absorbing markets in East Africa -- especially on Sundays when the camel market is held."〔Philip Briggs, ''Ethiopia: The Bradt Travel Guide'', 3rd edition (Chalfont St Peters: Bradt, 2002), p. 421.〕
