I support increased funding for the South as it is severely behind Puntland and Somaliland and one of the biggest reason for this after security is the vast difference in funding.
However, the issue I have is with increasing the powers of the FGS over the states. Other than the fact that I don’t trust the Hutus and I believe they still have genocidal tendencies, giving a president in Xamar that much power is very dangerous. Imagine if Farmajo had that much power? Do we really want another Siyaad Barre? And don’t bring the qabiil talk because we all know Barre and Farmaajo had Hutus working for him. A strong Xamar is not in Daarood or Hutu interests unless we are able to overcome qabyaalad (which we are not).
