So, I was reading this article and it said that there was a drought between 1973-1975 it was considered one of the worst droughts to people who lived at that time in North Africa and East Africa. Ethiopia was affected a lot, however, at that time their government wasn’t so great and there were wars whereas Somalia had a good central government. Since, it had a good central government loss of life was minimized and the cost of drought relief for that long drought was 604 million USD. Therefore, if we want to minimize loss of life and the cost of recurring droughts. A good central government is needed in place. Currently, Alshabab controls a large territory so therefore that would impact the people living there as Alshabab would use that against them as they did before back in 2011 and 2016.
Therefore, the one that is coming now is going to be disastrous because unfortunately the government is not at a level where it’s supposed to be.

However, people can prepare for the next ones.
I saw what a couple of you wrote, but it’s important that the government has more control for those things to be implemented better. Also, it’s important that the government does what’s best for its people instead of being corrupt. I hope they know that serving their people would increase the country’s profit more than serving themselves. I remember reading somewhere that Allah(s.w.t) increases the fortune for those that help others. Especially those who help people who are close to them.
The Prophet (sallalahu alayhi wa sallam) also said, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but will be the foremost on the Day of Resurrection." The narrators of this Hadith said: Allah said (to man), 'Spend (in charity), for then I will compensate you (generously).'" (Bukhari)
