Though median age at first marriage has been between the ages of 15 and 18 (United Nations on the rise over the past three decades, Ethiopia falls Children’s Fund 2014). Though child marriage is in the top 10 countries with the highest rates of child declining globally, it is estimated that over 100 million marriage: among 20-49-year-old women, 58 percent girls under age 18 will be married in the next decade were married or in union before the age of 18.

Benishangul-Gumuz Region
Situation Analysis of Children and Women: Benishangul-Gumuz Region Situation Analysis of Children and Women: Benishangul-Gumuz Region ABSTRACT The Situation Analysis covers selected dimensions of child well-being in Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State. It builds on the national Situation Analysis of Children and Women in Ethiopia (2019) and on other existing research, with inputs from specialists in Government, UNICEF Ethiopia and other partners. It has an estimated population of approximately 1.1 million people, which constitutes 1.1% of the total Ethiopian population. The population is young: 13 per cent is under-five years of age and 44 per cent is under 18 years of age. Since 1999/00, Benishangul-Gumuz has experienced an impressive 28 percentage point decline in monetary poverty, but 27 per cent of the population are still poor; the second highest in the country after Tigray and higher than the national average of 24 per cent. SITUATION ANALYSIS OF CHILDREN AND WOMEN: BENISHANGUL-GUMUZ REGION 4 Food poverty continued a steep decline from 55 per cent in 1999/00 to 24 per cent in 2015/16; close to the national average of 25 per cent. In Benishangul-Gumuz, in 2014, only 1.1 per cent of rural households were in the PSNP compared to 11 per cent of households at the national level In 2011, the under-five mortality rate in Benishangul-Gumuz was the highest in Ethiopia (169 per 1,000 live births); this declined significantly, but is still very high: 96 deaths per 1,000 births, which is the second highest in the country after Afar.

The General Linear Model and non-parametric test (chi-square) procedures of SAS software were used for the analysis of the morphometric data and qualitative traits, respectively. Means were separated using the Tukey-Kramer test. The studied morphometric measurements ARTICLE were significantly affected by the phenotypic type and partially affected by sex and sample location /district. 27 - 3 , 20 Sinnar donkeys were significantly bigger and heavier than the local and the crosses. However, for some of the 10 , 2019 morphometric measurements no significance difference was observed between Sinnar and crosses implying 19 the presence of heterosis. Heart girth measurements for Sinnar, local and crosses were 110.61±0.436, 106.18±0.448 and 108.87±1.251, respectively.

IJOART International Journal of Advancements in Research & Technology, Volume 6, Issue 2, February-2017 36 ISSN 2278-7763 The Paradox of Administration of Nationalities in Post-1991 Ethiopia: The Case of Benishangul- Gumuz Regional State Abstract The Constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia allows each of the regional states with the legislative power to draft, adopt and amend their own constitution fitting to its own local circumstances. Thus, Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State (hereafter used as BGRS) drafted and adopted its own constitution. The 2002-revised constitution of the region vividly recognized the establishment of administration of nationalities as administrative hierarchy by replacing the former Zonal Administration. Therefore, the writer of this paper collected various empirical evidences by using personal interview, researcher’s field note, FGD in addition to appropriate legal document investigation to explain the paradox of incompatibility of legal principles and actual practices of nationality administration in BGRS. Hence, the writer claims that, BGRS does not follow its own constitutional provisions for administration ofIJOART nationalities practically. Since constitutionally, nationality administrations in BGRS have important powers but practically these powers are symbolic/nominal.
