Abstract

Governance is a multi-dimensional concept that involves the traditions and institutions under which political authority in a country is exercised. Governance includes the process by which rulers are selected, monitored and replaced, and the capacity for government to effectively formulate and implement sound and inclusive policies, including the respect of citizens and the institutions that determine economic and social policies.

The paper explores alternative paths toward Reforming Politics, economics rooted in tribal conflict that drive of Dictatorships by promoting Unity in Diversity and the Rule of Law for justice and inclusive sustainable development for 21st Century, free interaction among citizens including free movement of people across traditional provinces that allows for market based development.

The paper is intended to promote further serious dialogue and research by students and scholars on critical issues of governance, leadership, political development, conflict resolution, peace building in Ethiopia and the East Africa and beyond and concludes with rise of Promising elected on April 7, 2018 and making dramatic positive changes against some challenges.
