    It explains, as you are technically of S Galbeed. Is Biciidyahan a sub of MX?

    Technically yes, but my great grandfather was from Mudug. Bicidyahan is MJ subclan.

    I see more of it now than ever, and it always invokes terrible ire in my gut, shout and yell at them, the same way I used to children of Daraawiish waving colonial flags and discussing illegitimate colonial demarcations between Somali territories.

    What even bothers more is endless attempts to redefine Somali nationhood and reinterpret history.

    Che,
    Your familiarity and interest with Habasha politics is surprisingly too close to home; are you by chance from the S Galbeed?

     

    I have a general interest since Addis  became closely intertwined with Somali politics. I have no immediate familial connection to Somaligalbeed, but clanwise, we live on both sides of the border.

    My grandfather on my dad's  side was born near  Wardheer and my other grandfather near  Buhoodle. To be blunt, I am a product of Cali Gari and Bicidyahan. 

    My family have lived in the South for past 80 plus years.

    Apart from that, I am amazed by the history of Ethiopian state and evolution of Somali thinking in regards to it.

    I was astonished by how many Somalis went goo goo gaga over  Abiy.

    Two things never change, the tyranny of Ethiopian leaders and their ambition on Somali territories. I am saddened a lot of Somalis don't see or choose not to see that.
