Professor Cabdi Ismaaciil Samatar selected Senator

[repo]

I appear to have missed this. This is the most interesting development in these selections. This is very likely a future president we are witnessing, what's your opinion on this significant moment in history?

N&N saying the old man was handing out 2.5k in the hotel. Those UAE bucks came in clutch.

Find it hard to believe though

Abdi Ismaciil is a firat rate academic. If Somalis were smart, they would put more people like him in the upper house.

in the land called konfuria we only respect and obey strongmen while simultaneously calling for civilian rule.

He is a great academic but he has flip floppy tendencies, he didn't make it in the last few elections and sulked off to Somaliland. I watched his interviews on Farmaajo, his stance is useful for the opposition but he doesn't f with them either, if you want to be a leader you need to get your hands dirty and play hard ball with everyone.

I don't know much about him, but if he hasn't been caught stealing and killing, he's alright in my book so congrats to him.

You're confusing him and his brother Ahmed Ismail Samatar who is pro SL. Abdi Ismail has always been pro union and this is the first time he ran for a seat.

Abdi Ismail, Baadiyow, Gaandhi, Abdiweli Sheekh Axmed etc

People like this are always shadowed by people like HSM the epitome of the worst qualities in Somali politicians outside of Abdirahman Abdishakur.

We need more educated people in leadership roles and less clan motivated politicians from a bygone era

I wish me samatar the best
