You have to be either Darood or Hawiye, but here is what Somalia's constitution states:

• Being a Somali citizen and a Muslim
• Having relevant knowledge or experience for the role
  
• Being not less than forty years of age
• Having a sound mind and not having been convicted by a court of a major crime

That's the unofficial requirement.
