In recent years, the judiciary experienced lack of transparency and corruption and nepotism from several politicians and bureaucrats. This was observed during the 2005 general election which remained obscured to investigate the meddling. Despite remained low competency, the Ethiopian government fostered an improvement in the whole of judiciary bodies. Since Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed came to power in 2018, he initiated reforms including qualifying courts criteria and experienced judges, provision to courtrooms and drafting the Federal Court Proclamation and Federal Judicial Administration Proclamation.
