To answer your Question.
1. Muqdisho is the only place the weak federal government controls.
2. Muqdisho gets more then it gives. More than 90% of the Aid meant for Somalia goes to Muqdisho. AbdiWelli Gas Aka Mr. Tukarak Said it Best " Muqdisho is not Somalia and Somalia is not Muqdisho". All Foreign countries See Somalia as just Muqdisho.
3. Places like Puntland pay their own taxes to their local government and not to the federal government.
The better question why isn't the rest of the country getting the Aid money. Why does Turkey only invests in Muqdisho. Why Doesn't the federal government control Afgoye which is few miles from Muqdisho.
As someone from Somaliland this is what I have noticed. I am not for or against Muqdisho.
