Hawiye are always running scams so I’m sure SL thought about it but didn’t trust them.
‘Hello Sir, I’m a former Mogadishu warlord who’s fallen on hard times. I have some bags of rice I stole from U.N. humanitarian aid from ‘93 that I’ve hidden in a bunker but I need $1,000 to get it out. If you could kindly wire the funds asap I can give you ictiraaf. Please hurry before Qoslaaye steals the rice!’
I am gonna buy some land in Hargeysa though if the ictiraaf is looming
