Federalism is the only thing that will work

Somalia is way too corrupt for all things to be centralised
 
These stupid old dogs think their siyad barre and a whole new generation needs to born in Mogadishu who need to realise a federal govt role is only what regional govts delegate to it, it's from bottom up like any federation. The federal govt should play an oversight role only and looking at different regions and their policies, governance, and implementation and how it's achieving the over all objective and targets set by the federal govt.

These sfg guys can't even differentiate themselves from regional govts and will harm it's status as a federal govt as they could lose that recognition internally and revert to being seen as a Banadir govt which will also flow from international community as they won't work with a govt claiming federal titles but has no federal partners.

Regional govt focus on their region that's their status and role and the federal govt cannot infringe on that. They need to rise above regional govt roles and stop being another regional govt and look at the nation and how well each region is doing in meeting it's obligation to its people.
Sadly, the current political class fails to realise shared autonomy along with responsibilities nurture strength from the periphery to the sum of the whole at the centre whereas concentrated power at the centre weakens the periphery, and by extension the whole. There shall be no return to the failed model of a single point of failure: Xamar falls, and the rest follows to fail. Instead, if the centre collapses, there shall be seven or more centres to maintain order at the periphery, and to keep the nation on a live support grid till the centre could be resuscitated.
