I have narrowed down the real difference between Past & Present Somali Presidents into three categories.

1. Those who earned the Presidency.




2. Those who stole the Presidency.


3. Those who bought the Presidency.

Why do you have 1, 3, 2 instead of 1 2 3?

Remove Cabdullahi Yusuf ninyahow.

I think a different category will be very befitting for Cabdullahi Yusuf, AUN though.

Those who begged for presidency to ajnabiga

come on, abdullahi yusuf brought invading forces

The only thing I agree with is the first two pictures.

Aadan Abdulle Osman Daar: First Elected Somali president who stepped down for his predecessor.

Abdirashiid Ali Sharmaake: First assassinated Somali president.

The rest, i am still sitting on the sideline.

Lol @ putting Abdullahi Yusuf in the same group as Adan Cadde and Abdirashid Sharmerke

come on, abdullahi yusuf brought invading forces

He didn't bring them, the Somali Parliament did, and their stay has been approved by the Current NGO President iyo his cousin ex Terrorists Sharif Sheikh Ahmed.

And Let's please stick to the topic were talking about track record here.

Those who come under as Earning the Presidency have some core things in common.

1. They served their country prior to their Presidency.
2. They fought for their Country.
3. They were elected into Power by those who represent the country.
4. This one only applies to A/Y he went to Prison for what he believed in not once but twice.
He went to Prison in Defense of his country & the dignity of it's people. He Later once again proved himself as an extraordinary leader by serving at the local level and Established the Federal State of Puntland.

5. Only A/Y was able to return Dawladimo back to anarchy Mogadishu. The Fruits of his labor is what is being enjoyed in the capital today.

Indeed Track Records speak for themselves. No Somali Leader will ever come close to AUN A/Y political and military accomplishments period!

the only thing i disagree with is AY, you are being tribalist

the only thing i disagree with is AY, you are being tribalist

I stating facts, so I guess the FACTS are being tribalist.

No one cares for personal opinion here, or you feelings towards a certain leader.
I am taking a look at track record, and indeed they speak volume.

WTF is your problem with Abdiqaasim Salaad? He left office a long time ago. The Somalia of 1999 when he took office is different from the Somalia of now.

As a Dhabayaco, i know u hate Ceyr, but let the man enjoy his last yrs of retirement, he is pushing almost 78yrs old.

He has done alot for Somalia than u can ever imagine or hope so. From his time as a Interior Minister under Siyaad to everything.

But of course, ur hatred for HG clouds ur judgment. Dadka iska dhaaf, hadii uu Allahaa Alla yahay.

Sheikh sharif and Abdullah yusuf should be in the same category. they were both selected because they possessed some sort of power before they were selected as president of Somalia. the first two earned nothing they were more like house negus. I agree that xasan qoslaye bought votes. I agree siad barre took it by force. I have nothing to say about salaad xasan.

Cabdullahi Yusuf was the pinnacle of Daba-Dhilifnimo.

You can try to cover for his wrongs, but the truth will always surface Knet.

One doesn't really have to dig deep to see the truth about that man.

Surely if he was as good as you depict him to be, there would be more Somalis praising him other than his kin.

I don't want to derail your thread.

Have a good day.

The Opinion of a Traitor hold no weight. Your leaders have a category of their own called Traitor. uff

At least we declared that we have nothing to do with Somalia 24 years ago. ironically all Somalis are coping us while blaming as the same time. puntland waxay qaadatay the exact same ideology of Somaliland waxaynu ku kala duwanahay ma jirto aan ahayn inaad been kula dhuuqaysaan xamar. xadhig aan jirin baad tidhaahdaan marna waanu xidhnay marnu waanu furnay kkk.

Siyaad Barre left bigger legacy (both good and bad) than the rest combined.

Below names didn't really do much. Just ex warlords turned transitional Presidents.

Ali naafto,
Salaad boy,
Ina YEY,
