Riwaayad Siyad Barre laga alifay 1980s

Recommended Posts

Very accurate depiction of Siyad Barre's corrupt and inept inner circle and how they used to run the country. Riyaawad.

 

"Soomaalay dhagayso, kursigan qori caradiis ayaan ku qabtay qori caradiis ayaa la igaga qaadaya".

He ruled according to "Divide and Rule". In order to do that he got the help of representatives from all clans (the ones today crying foul). One of his last interviews he said "I was not the President of Somalia I was the gate keeper of Lazareti (a mental hospital in Mogadishu) now the door is open."

 

Indeed the only time he spoke the truth.
