I can see why they gave the money to people inside Puntland rather than the administration.
Puntland has a horrible corruption record and their administrations seem incapable of building infrastructure especially roads.
The EU cancelled a road project they were funding cause of Puntland poor mismanagement hence why their administrations can be trusted with FG money.

Maybe this is why Puntland's road network is by far the worst in Somalia.
