== Overview ==
In this woreda there is a gold mine said to be the oldest one in the world, according to the ''Spectrum Guide to Ethiopia''; that book adds that it is "thought by some to be the source of the legendary 'King Solomon's Mines' featured in the novel of the same name by Rider Haggard."〔Camerapix, ''Spectrum Guide to Ethiopia'' (Brooklyn: Interlink, 2000), p.195〕 European prospectors, granted concessions by the Ethiopian government, searched for gold between 1901 until the Second Italian-Abyssinian War, finding deposits on Tulu Kami and the Laga Gumbi hills, as well as along the Alaltu and Dilla Rivers.〔("Local History in Ethiopia" ) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 11 December 2007)〕 Coffee is an important cash crop of Nejo. Over 50 square kilometers is planted with this crop.〔("Coffee Production" ) Oromia Coffee Cooperative Union website〕
In the 2005 Ethiopian elections, the electoral district of Nejo elected Mesfin Nemera Deriesa (party whip of the Oromo Federalist Democratic Movement) as their representative in the House of People's Representatives.〔("House of Peoples' Representatives of the Federal Republic of Ethiopia" ), Ethiopian Parliament website (accessed 6 October 2009)〕
