We need to speed up urbanization or the costs of these droughts will eat up all the money that could have gone to development. We have people living in places without any groundwater, an entire settlement relying on trucks for drinking water. This is not sustainable.

Puntland should simply tell people living in places without any possibility of groundwater that water trucking will happen for a year and after that year they are on their own. These places should not be allowed to continue to grow in population.

If that was applied in middle east. Then we wouldn't see Gulf countries as we see it today. Government duty is to bring to services to their citizens.

For a city on the coast with access to sea water like Bosaso, or small towns like Qandala or Bandar Beyla solar powered desalination may become viable in the future. Towns like Rako Raaxo, away from the coast and with virtually no groundwater simply should not exist.

The gulf countries simply burn unrefined crude straight out of the ground and use that cheap electricity to desalinate. Saudi Arabia with 34 million people uses more oil each day than Brazil a country of 211 million. Most of it goes to desalination and Air Conditioning. Somalia and Puntland in particular does not have unlimited amounts of oil to do this kind of thing.

I'm sorry but I think brother @FBIsomalia is right. It is the government's duty to provide basic things like clean drinking water as difficult as it is to achieve it but you have to try.
 
The government should address the draught. It is devastating and shameful that there are people dying because of no water while there is a government who is supposed to represent them.

Who chooses to die of thirst.
