Jimma Aba Jifar Football Club (Amharic: ጅማ አባ ጅፋር; Afaan Oromo: Jimmaa Abbaa Jifaar) is a professional football club based in Jimma, Ethiopia. They play in the Ethiopian Higher League, the second division of Ethiopian football. The club, who was formally known as Jimma City, was promoted to the Ethiopian Premier League for the first time after the end of the 2016–17 season.
The club was founded in 1983 (1975 E.C.). The club finished first in the Ethiopian Higher League (second division) Group B after the 2016/17 season, by virtue earning a promotion to the 2017/18 Ethiopian Premier League. The club has since signed some notable foreign players to the side, including Nigerian striker Okiki Afolabi and Ghanaian Goalkeeper Daniel Agyei.
The club won the 2017/18 Ethiopian Premier League title. Shortly after the 2017–18 season their manager, Gebremedin Haile, left the club to sign with another Premier League club, Mekelle City FC.
The club participated in 2018-19 CAF Champions League as the only representative from Ethiopia. They defeated ASAS Djibouti Télécom 5-3 on aggregate in parliamentary round. However, they made their exit from the tournament in the next round courtesy of a 2-1 aggregate defeat to Egyptian giants Al-Ahly.
FIFA imposed a transfer ban on club in 2020 for unpaid wages to Ghanaian goalkeeper Daniel Agyei.
