With the election of Farmaajo, should Somalia abandon federalism

[TheLibertarianQuiche]

I believe Somalia now has a nationalistic and responsible government. Now we should hand over the keys and let them fully govern Somalia. Whether they rule justly is a different issue and will be decided at the end of their term.

Discuss.

I doubt it unfortunately. We may never get rid of federalism.

He said in his speech he was going to work with the federal states. It would be foolish of him to come after them.

Also it is too early to tell if the government is responsible.

In responsible, I'm not referring to Farmaajo specifically. We have had over 5 years of government and we should take the next step.

However I think Farmaajo shouldn't go after them but rather coax them to the table.

However if we do stick with federalism, I prefer non-clan based federalism.

Federalism is a cancer that will plague us for decades to come. Might even result in more conflicts

 

[XamarCade]

Federalism leads to kibirism

Federalism favours some more then others I won't deny that, but the reason why federalism has stood so strong is because for the first time govt actually reached the entire country which helps the locals and also gives ppl thier identity in a respective manner, stop focusing on destroying federalism and concentrate on how the country can come
Together to rebuild our army our economy and improve our image to the outside world

That is correct but I feel federalism has done its job which you stated. Now its time for Xamar to take the reins.
