- The Roadmap [out of the transition] Signatories established Provisional Constitution issues be worked out in what eventually became Garowe Principles
- Garowe I ( Dec, 2011) established language on federalism, including 2 or more states as well as a National Constituent Assembly that would finalize and "adopt" Provisional Constitution replacing "national referendum" for the Provisional
- Garowe II (Feb, 2012) established the NCA to be 825 delegates based on 4.5 overseen by Technical Selection Committee
- NCA adopted the Provisional Constitution on 1st Aug, 2012.
- Shortly that summer the post-transitional FGS Parliament came into existence established by the Provisional Constitution (legitimacy is obsolete in the inverse, the prov const preceded them)
- Article 49, clause 4-5 of Provisional Constitution directly outlines 2 more states as they were before 1991 as basis for a Fed State
---How they would form or synergize is left up to political arrangement and statutory law (being granted certain number of senate seats as recognition) different to the 2 or more languages controlling what they are composed of which is constitutional law being stated in the Provisional Constitution
So my brother there is a 2 state requirement stated in an adopted binding Provisional Constitution in effect that is currently the most Supreme Law in the land and there are in fact recognized Federal States who have been statutorily awarded senate seats as recognition (why for example Gedo is not awarded senate seats but Hirshabelle is even though Gedo is almost 2X bigger than Hirshabelle and even bigger than current Galmudug and even Southwest States)
And finally, SSC has already been processed because her case is commensurate with Galmudug, the only existing Federal State in breach of the Provisional Constitution regarding what validates a federal state that can be recognized
Galmudug was approved because of "political cooperation" that was based on goodwill. In turn, SSC has been processed because of mutual beneficial return of goodwill. This is how mutually beneficial relationships self-police.
SSC is a done issue. It is a processed case because the laws, customs, and even political settlements underpinning what is the Federal form have implicated SSC's recognition.
