To analyses the collected data, a combination of both quantitative and qualitative analysis methods together with descriptive and inferential statistics were employed. Quantitative data which were generated from questionnaire survey were analyzed by using both descriptive statistics in the form of Tables, Frequency, Percentages, and inferential statistics (binary logistic regression) through Microsoft excel and SPSS version 24 software. Qualitative data that were collected from key informant’s interview, FGDs with mangers of RLAU office and experts and observation were analyzed through descriptive methods. The findings of this study showed that corruption and rent seeking behavior, lack of skilled manpower, lack of committed land administration officials, weak monitoring and evaluation and implementation gaps were the major factors that inhibit the implementation of good governance principles in rural land administration. The result of this study also indicated that the practice of transparency, accountability, equity, and responsiveness was poorly applied within the rural land administration activities.
