You are mistaking Radio Muqdisho with BBC Somali

 

BBC Somali Service was established in 1957 by the way.

 

 

So Giriig's songs is no way connected to BBC Somali since he made his collections way before them, maybe after 1957, they might have aired his songs.

 

 

 

Ps;

Didn't realize you said Radio Cairo, what kind of Radio was this

Bro I know this for a FACT, I read the full paper whose abstract is here: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=2461232

 

The full paper shows the actual songs played, when, the messages etc...

[Wadani]

Yes, he would. And don't call my adeer that Mooge guy, show some respect will ya.

Radio Cairo used to have Somali service as early as 1960s so it is possible that the song was played in the early 60s as well. The service was used to good effect for dhiiragelinta NFD folks and telling folks there to join Somalia and secede from Kenya...

Yeah Laftaydu ku tiri ku teen baan ku maqlay "Radio Cairo" ayaa lahaa laan af-soomaaliga ah, oo BBC-da wuuba ka horeeyay ama isku waqti baa la bilaabay...But I have no documented source...Just odayaal baan ka maqlay.
