Several actors have targeted Somalia's Gedo region, including the militant group Al-Shabaab, the Jubbaland administration, Kenya, and the Federal Government of Somalia. This has resulted in significant challenges for the people of Gedo, such as drought, floods, and inadequate infrastructure.The presence of Al-Shabaab has contributed to the region's insecurity, causing community displacement and economic disruption. Because of this insecurity, aid organizations have found it difficult to provide much-needed assistance during times of drought and flooding.

The conflict between the Jubbaland administration and the Gedo community has also harmed Gedo. The conflict has resulted in a lack of coordinated efforts to address issues such as drought and flooding, which has exacerbated the region's suffering. The federal government of Somalia showed little or no concern for the people of Gedo. Miraa's deals with Kenya determine whether there will the Kenyan border will open or close, the only time the federal government interacts with the region. The government never consulted with the community when resolving issues with Jubbaland authorities.

As a result, there has been insecurity, poor infrastructure, with little investment in roads, hospitals, and other essential services and a lack of coordinated efforts to address issues like drought and flooding. To address these challenges and improve the lives of the people of Gedo, immediate action is required. These action is expected mainly from the federal government of Somalia to take a lead role in this disaster and finding a lasting solution for the recurring tragedies in the region.

Bardhere requires both short-term and long-term solutions. The short-term solution is to mobilize all available resources to assist those displaced by the recent floods. The federal government is expected to provide the majority of the solutions to coordinate the crisis. It is well known that jubbaland and Gedo have a strained relationship. The federal government should not sit back and wait for Kismayo to act. Many people have been displaced and have lost their homes and businesses. To coordinate the situation, the international community should work directly with the authorities in Bardhere. All efforts should be made by the Somali community and diaspora to alleviate the crisis.

The most important long-term solution is to resolve the region's political crisis. This is expected from the Gedo community, Jubbaland, the federal government, and Kenya, which is a stakeholder in Jubbaland politics. If the crisis is overcome and all efforts are directed toward clearing alshabab from the region, the region has great potential.

Other solutions are named below: 

The recurring problem of flooding in Bardhere and the Gedo region is a result of negligence by regional and federal governments. The floods have caused untold suffering for the people living there, and urgent action is needed to prevent further damage. The solutions proposed, such as finding political solution to create envirenment for investment,  building levees and drainage systems, disaster relief funding, climate change mitigation, and early warning systems, can help prevent flooding and improve the lives of those affected. It is time for the regional and federal governments to take action to protect the people of Bardhere and the Gedo region.
