I’ve heard that rumor before as well, but the camel belonging to Warsan is new
I don’t believe any of it though, Bossasso sounds a lot like the ancient name the Greeks have it, Mosylon. Replace the M with a B and it sounds a lot like a corruption of the name. I think Warsan was still in Meydh back then

Moosylon ( Mosylon ) : Μοσυλλόν and Μόσυλον .
L ↔ S .
M ↔ B .
Boosaaso : B oo s aa s o .
Moosylon : M oo s y l on .
-on (-ων ) is a Greek suffix .
the suffix -ō̆n (-ων ) known as the " Strabon suffix " .
