Biggest danger to Somalis are Somalis themselves, hate, envy, and selfishness are what is destroying Somalis in Somali galbeed or Somalia proper, once we are united Oromos or others can not penetrate us. But while we are eating each other Somali galbeed will be lost slowly and NFD is already seeing a population shift where big cities like Garissa is becoming more of a Kikuyu city. Just look at Diri Dawa of Somali Galbeed where the Somali ethnics are only 24.3% contrary to 20 years ago where they were the majority.

 

Wikipedia.org

That information is not accurate, SPDP got 74 seats in 16 kebele in 2008 election out off 189 seats in all 24 kebele thats 40% of the seats. The somalis in Dire Dawa make between 40-60% but its very difficult to get exact numbers because its multilingual city, the group that dominate the politics in dire dawa hail from Gur-gura clan(largest group in Shiniile/Errer)) they have most importent seats(Speaker of the Council, Justice/Security and Legal Affairs, City Manager etc.) and they are multi lingual in some area they only speak oromo language. That’s why any census will not be accurate in this case, the census in wikipedia is probably based on language.
