The article shows the marxuum as a unique character. AUN!

Damn, you report a new Somali death almost every week in the west. I'm glad this wasn't gang related, but I hope his passage wasn't painful and ilahay janatul firdows ha ka warabiyo, amiin.

Do you know kind of cancer?

Inaa lilaahi wa ina ilaahi raajicuun! Ilaahey naxariistiin janno ha ka waraabiyo Marco Abdi, eheladiisii iyo qaraabadiisinan samir iyo imaan ha ka siiyo. I have met the marxuum on several occasions and he was one of the most decent human being you will ever meet. Again AUN, Marco.

His surname was Marco miyaa
It was that just his trading name

Cancer is no joke. I wouldn't even wish it on my worst enemy. It slowly eats you from from the inside out and you are dead within months of your diagnosis.

I also noticed the cancer rate of Somalis in the west has increased dramatically and more Somalis die from it. It's combination of the food, weather and all the chemicals that we are exposed to.

Aun to the restaurant owner.

he was one of those classy Somalis that are rare today. Aun. Yea I've noticed cancer rates are up in the Somali community in the west. I think it's caused by air pollution and gmo's in food although he could've been a smoker. i don't think it's such a big problem in Africa. Which leads to the conclusion that it's just a side effect of modern day living.

Yes, Marco was a name the marxuum, AUN, adopted later in life. His real full name was, Mahdi Abdi Baajeeyte.
