what did he change? the Somali Republic under Afweyne's Kacaan was one of the least developed countries in the world.
The Somali Republic was a beggar state, completely reliant on foreign aid, whether it was financial, humanitarian or military. Imagine being proud of being an aid recipient!
Now just to quantify Afweyne's ineptitude and failure, understand this, the Somali Republic was the largest per head recipient of aid in all of Africa!
Now, how did all of this aid materials on the ground:
Reality check. The World Bank:

The Kacaan's economic performance was abysmal, records show it lagged behind sub-Saharan Africa for its entire reign.

The picture becomes very clear if we look at GDPs of regional economies at the time we see in comparison to the Afweyne's kacaan
Tanzania: $10.4 Billion
Ethiopia: $8.9 Billion
Kenya $8.5 Billion
Uganda: $7.4 Billion
Gabon: $3.7 Billion
Papua: New Guinea $3.9 Billion
Gabon: $3.7 Billion
Zambia: $3.7 Billion
Madagascar: $3.5 Billion
Senegal: $2.8 Billion
Malawi: $2.1 Billion
Somali Republic: 1.3 Billion
Tanzania's GDP was almost 10X that of the Afweyne's Somali Republic! Zambia was almost 3X! Absolutely abysmal figures a
The story is not different when we look at GDP per capita:
Gabon: $4619
Papua New Guinea: $1215
Uganda: $601
Zambia: $562
Tanzania: $513
Senegal: $449
Kenya: $484
Madagascar: $371
Malawi: $298
Somali Republic: $250
But, objectively speaking, for all other Somalis, the Kacaan was a disaster
These are theories@popoff facts about Siad Barre:
- He had weird gibberish like accent. Some still doubt he was Somali and not Oromo.
- He was an evil man.
- There was story about him and his mysterious bond with Jinn. Some say his soul was possessed over the last 13 years of his life.
- Some say he wasn't a Muslim. It's believable considering how he denounced the Qur'an in public and declared his undying affection for Marxism.
- Some conspiracy theorists say that he had consensual relationship with a horse?!! the dude was a freak no doubt about that.
I mean at the end of the day he died in a toilet in nigeria so I’m content
You right. I was just curious , ! genuinely just wanted to understand. I think i got a rough ideas about himI think we should avoid these topics for the time being, talking about prominent/controversial figures from the past invites nothing but further division. We have a job to do now and we need to focus on unity and fixing our home
My only problem with anti siad opposition is that they failed to form a government after Siad left power.So ok guys let me get to my question. I am being genuine here so please easy on me . Educate me. when said barre is talk about people either love him or hate him? give me a lesson.
Xawaadle aren't a big clan by any means but they absolutely despise him, I think there's more to it than small or big clans.Trust me I know how popular he is. Most of my dad side risked their life to overthrow him and my mums family will literally burn you alive if you don’t address him as supreme aabe siyad so trust me I know he’s popular but not by the big clans by minorities or less relevant clans in xamar like benadiri or mursode
I mean he did massacare them......Xawaadle aren't a big clan by any means but they absolutely despise him, I think there's more to it than small or big clans.
We as a people have proven time aint the cure to madness and reconciliatingI hate with Siad Barre with a passion but he died 25 years ago. Let's focus on the living.
We as a people have proven time aint the cure to madness and reconciliating
We lack political will and are fragmented thanks to tribes and shit and see each other as enemies while we are surrounded but actual onesWell what is ? I mean we have to find a way forward.
