dc.description.abstract | Oromia National Regional State is one of the federating states of Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. Constitutionally, the Region has its own legislative, executive and judicial organ. Addis Ababa city which is the capital city of the federal government is found in this Region. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia; Constitution guarantees special interest of Oromia National Regional State in the City as a whole on matters of provisions of social services, utilization of natural resources, administrative and other similar matters and does not prohibit the region from establishing its capital city in Addis Ababa. Oromia National Regional State Constitution later amendment declares Finfine is the capital city of Oromia National Regional State. The residents of the City constitutionally are given the power of self governance. Concerning judicial power, the Federal courts exercise the criminal jurisdiction in the City. The judicial organ of Oromia National Regional State, shall exercise judicial jurisdiction in the region. Following the declaration of Addis Ababa city as the capital city of Oromia National Regional State, the region established its regional office in the City. As long as Oromia National Regional State capital city is Finfine the need arise to regulate the issues of jurisdiction on crimes committed in the city on the interest of Oromia National Regional State. It is the theme of the paper to reveal the problem of overlap of criminal judicial jurisdiction in Addis Ababa city. Under Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Constitution the status of Addis Ababa city has not clearly been defined. Addis Ababa is a federal capital city as per Art. 49 (1 and 3) of Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Constitution. It is semi- autonomous City administration accountable to federal government as per Art. 49(2 and 4); and it is a City in a state attributed to its geography entirely within the State of Oromia National Regional State as per Art. 49(5). Emanating from this lack of clarity under the constitution, the city is expected to entertain and harmonize conflicts of criminal judicial jurisdiction of the federal government and Oromia National Regional State simultaneously. | en_US |
