The existence of Awi people as one ethnic group with its own culture and language has made itrnnecessary for the existence of Awi- Nationality Administrative Zone as self governing entityrnwith three organs of government- elected council, administrative council (executive) and itsrnjudiciaries at zonal level. Theoretically Awi Nationality Administrative Zone is expected tornplay unique status due to its existence as nationality administrative zone. The effort made onrnthis study to assess the implementations of this unique status of Awi Nationality Administrativernzone with respect to devolution of political and administrative power/authority, its fiscalrnautonomy as separate tire of government and its good governance practice through the use ofrndescriptive research is noteworthy. The existence of Awi- Nationality Administrative Zone hasrnits inception from article 39 of federal constitution and article 73 of the regional constitutionrnwith the objective of protecting, preserving and promoting Awi people's culture and languagernthrough self governance and self determination. However, this study found that thernimplementation of such constitutional right were going on at low pace than expected due tornlow commitment of administrators, financial dependence of zone administration from thernregional government, weak application of good governance principles, regional interferencernon zonal affairs and less decentralized power/ authority of legal nature. Lustily it isrnrecommended to enhance zonal autonomy, decreasing financial dependence, increasingrnadministrator 's commitment, starting Awgni language for administrative use, encouragingrnpublic participation in planning and managing projects, enhancing transparency, clarity inrnfinancial administration or block grant.
