Laba-X Posted January 7, 2008 As of late, many people have humbly or haughtily carried the Somali name - some in a dignified manner and for laudable causes that affected millions and won many hearts, and others for ignoble causes that either brought about humiliation. The praiseworth former group will always be remembered in the colourful pages of Somali history, whereas the loathsome latter will meet or will have met an ignominious end. Who should and shouldn't be in the Somali hall of fame. Name one person from the past or present that should definitely be included in the Somali Hall of Fame and One person that should be included in the Somali Hall of Shame I will state the most obvious - Hall of Fame - Sayyid M A Hassan Hall of Shame - Abdullahi Yusuf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laba-X Posted January 7, 2008 Hadrawi - hmm... A very talented poet i must say, but what else? I think we can leave him in there for the time being simply because of his immense wealth of literature (though compared to many others he will be considered a lightweight) and his peace initiatives in Somalia!

Pujah Posted January 7, 2008 Hall of Fame – No one in the last 20 years. Hall of Shame - Abdullahi Yusuf and all his little stooges . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawdgirl Posted January 7, 2008 All of the Somali warlords belong to the hall of shame category, so list all of them or else you are not being fair to the rest? Mise you have some kind of hidden interest in one or perhaps few. Labo X, I don't agree with you on putting Sayyid M Xassan on the hall of shame as I heard that he killed many innocent people! So think about who is who among your famous Somali bloody killers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
