[Ahmed Nabaddoon @Ahmed_Nabaddoon]

Somalia’s federal system is stuck in a cycle of crippling political deadlock. What should be the urgent priority for Somali leaders to finally break the governance paralysis?

When Somalia adopted its Provisional Constitution in 2012, it laid out the vision of a federal state. Yet the most difficult questions; how power is shared, how resources are allocated, and how disputes are resolved remain unanswered. The result has been recurring political conflict, mistrust between political elites and selective Fedral-State cooperation.

Today, there is a growing disillusionment on Somalia’s statebuilding process - both nationally and internationally - over how the state is being imagined and governed. For more than a decade, the same cycle repeats: FGS and FMS clash over power, resources, representation and how elections should be managed? Each time it ends with the same story of agreements collapsing, reforms stalling, partners grow in frustration and citizens losing faith in the promise of a functional state.

The cost is heavy and multi-layered: governance paralysis, halted development and weakened security efforts drains energy and resources from the bigger picture of stability. These are not isolated issues; they are symptoms of a federal system that has no credible and permanent way to manage political conflicts. Unfortunately, Somali political culture remain driven by personalities rather than anchored on predictable institutions.

Puntland state has walked away from the table when its interests are ignored; Jubaland has resisted federal oversight, specially over elections and security and at times erupting into violent clash; and even states like Southwest, Galmudug, and Hirshabelle, often aligned with Mogadishu, have had moments of serious tension.

Somalia has relied on temporary fixes like the National Consultative Council (NCC) to ease tensions briefly but vanish with each new administration. There’s no continuity, no enforcement, no trust and no legitimacy. At best, it offers short-term relief. At worst, it reinforces the belief that disputes are only ever managed through brinkmanship and bargaining, not institutions and rules.

For the #InternationalPartners, cycles of repeated political crises has led to diminishing confidence in Somalia’s ability to sustain reforms, fueling frustration and fatigue. With each breakdown, the willingness of partners to underwrite Somalia’s progress weakens, not because of a lack of resources, but because of doubts that agreements will hold. This erosion of confidence risks undermining long-term support for peace and development, leaving Somalia more vulnerable to instability.

The #solution isn’t another meeting, another national dialogue; it’s structure and institutions based on constitutional mandates. Somalia needs:

1) A permanent Intergovernmental mechanism to mediate federal–state disputes, backed by clear rules and shared FGS-FMS ownership.

2) The establishment of the Constitutional Court that serve as the ultimate referee; interpreting the law, enforcing agreements, and ensuring fairness between the center and the states.

Those twin institutions would transform Somalia’s federalism from rivalry to cooperation by stabilizing politics, restoring trust, and keeping leaders focused on public service, security and development. Without them, Somalia risks endless brinkmanship, donor fatigue, and widening security vacuum that extremists and external proxy agendas will exploit.

This should form part of the main agenda for future administration with the support of partners on a clear accountability frameworks. It’s time to build institutions that outlast leaders by turning fragile bargains into lasting peace and stability.

Unconfirmed reports say a Turkish-owned cargo ship carrying military supplies for TÜRKSOM, detained by Puntland Maritime Police Force, has diverted to #Djibouti instead of Mogadishu after its release. The vessel was released after a meeting in Bosaso where President Deni received Turkey’s ambassador to Somalia. Puntland said Turkey proved ownership of the weapons aboard.

Xamar xukun askareed kuma soo arag

MW Xasan shalay waxaa lagu doortay waa loo darsaday, ee bal ka warrama haddii berrina aan dhahno “ cid dhaanta lama haayo”!

Laba walxaad oo aan Xamar ku soo arkay haddii aysan is baddalin waxay fursad kale siinayaan MW Xasan.

1: Waxaan arkay shacab iyo siyaasiyiin xor ah oo aan shabaab iyo dowlad midna ka cabsaneyn oo rayigooda dhiibanaya.

2: Waxaan arkay siyaasiyiin qabsanaya kulano lagu dhaliilayo xukuumadda oo ammaanka goobta la leeyahay waxaa sugaya ciidanka dowladda. #Police iyo #NISA

Dhaqankaas inta uu jiro wey adagtahay in Xasan cid dhaanto la helo, ma ogi haddii dowladda gudaheeda dad mucaaradka agendahooda fuliya laga helo.

Mucaaradka howl baa u taal.

Kalmadda “جاھليّة” (jaahilnimo) afar jeer ayay ku xusantahay Qur’aanka, mid kastana wuxuu tilmaamayaa nooc ka mid ah fasahaadka bulshada: (1) Caddaalad-darro xagga xukunka (حكم الجاهليّة), (2) Fasahaadka qalbiga oo ku salaysan tuhun iyo male-awaal been ah (ظنّ الجاهليّة), (3) Dhaqanka aan habboonayn ee dumarka (تبرّج الجاهليّة), iyo (4) Qabyaaladda iyo isir-nacaybka (حميّة الجاهليّة).

Afartaan nooc ee Qur’aanku inooka xusay jaahilnimada waxay astaan u yihiin musuq iyo fasahaad bulsho oo haddii ay ku faafaan bulshada keena burbur iyo halaag.

Dagaalka ay #Puntland kula jirto daacish, wuxuu bannaanka soo dhigay farqiga u dhaxeeya Puntland iyo maamulada kale ee Konfur Galbeed, #Jubbaland, #Gamudug iyo #Hirshabelle oo aan dagaal ku qaadin argagixisada ilaa ay hor-kacdo dowladda dhexe.

Taas ayaa caddeyn noogu filan in PL ma ahane, maamulada kale oo dhan aysan dagaal kula jirin Shabab ee waxa dagaalka wada ay tahay dowladda federalka ah.

Maamul kasta hadduu isku xilqaami lahaa xoreynta deegaankiisa, waxaa yaraan lahaa culeyska iyo masuuliyadda dagaalka xoreynta ee loo daayay dowladda dhexe.

#Villasomalia waxay ku taageeri kartaa PL saadka, sirdoonka iyo diyaaradaha wax duqeeya ee dowladdaha taageero Soomaaliya.
