Ahmed-Gurey, when did Cawrmale become Darood?
You can ignore the Marehan kids since they don't know anything about Kismayo, but my family has lived side-by-side with Cawrmale for a very long time and they have never been Darood.
Whenever Harti is mentioned in Kismayo, Cawrmale are mentioned separately. There are no Warsangali in Kismayo, just Cawrmale sheegato. There are conferences in Minneapolis from time to time between Harti residents of Kismayo, and only Dhullos & Majerteen show up, never Warsangali even though they are numerous in the city.
The below piece is from the TFG reconciliation charter:
Geographically Jubaland is a state that is formed on whatever land that lies west of River Juba. It starts from Doolow, Luq, Baardheere, Saakow, Bu'aale, Jilib, Kamsuma, Jammaame, Sanguuni, Yoontoy, Goobweyn and Jumbo where River Juba meets the Indian Ocean. In terms of regions, it is Gedo, Middle Juba (only west portion) and Lower Juba or Waamo on the western side of River Juba. In terms of clans, the state is inhabited by Daarood (Ogaadeen, Mareexaan and Harti) and Hawiyye/Samaale (Gaaljecel, Garre, Cawrmale, Sheeqaal, Dir, Ajuuraan, Gugundhabe-Jajeele, Dagoodi) and Digil/Mirifle in Gedo. Wardaay (in Waamo) and Baajun (in Kismayo and along the coast) are also there. The Bantus are also there along the river, all the way from Luuq to Jumbo where the River meets the Sea.
And lastly, how can a WHOLE sub-clan of Warsangali live all the way down south by themselves??? Even the much bigger Majerteen and Dulbahante don't have whole sub-clans living a thousand miles away!!
You can claim they are Warsangali and I will claim Galgale as Nuux Maxamud Salebaan but no Darood on this forum accepts Cawrmale as one of us, end of story.
