Time to name something after the father of the Somali National Air Force (SNAF) Gen. Ali Mataan Hashi!

[ReturnOfMariixmaan]

[UgaaskaBarakaysan]

That goes without saying sxb he will definitely be honored in the manner that he rightfully deserves. AUN Brigadier General Ali Mataan Hashi was a phenomenal person and a legendary figure that'll forever be remembered as the father of the Somali Air Force. May Allah take him to Janatul Firdaus.

[dalalos101]

Being a pilot is prestigious and honorable career and held at a high standing throughout the world, however it holds massive respect and admiration from the somali society as it is a sign of strength and power, we should definitely honour our first Somali pilot Gen. Cali Mataan Hashi AUN

Maybe you should build him a statue in Gedo. Me thinks the Hawiye masses have had enough of this factional, Darod, super hero story.

Insightful.

Fictional huh?

In 1963, the first Somali head of Isbital Martini and the first Somali with a surgeon's accreditation was Dr Mohamed Adan Sheekh (Marehan/Celi).

Dr Mohamed Adan Sheekh's Italian wife carried out the terms of his will which bequethed his estate to his charity for the building of a hospital in your own Hargeisa.

The MAS (Mohamed Adan Sheekh) Children's Hospital is the single most professional and modern medical facility in Somalia/Somaliland and it is the legacy of those "fictional stories" you seem to resent.

It's not only that, MAS Hosp is the ONLY free medical institution in the entire Somalia/Somalilans. Not only that, Dr Mohamed's charity established a continuing fundraiser with his estate so the hospital never asks for a dollar from any family. Beyond that Dr Mohamed's estate used the power of his name and image in the city of Turin to connect with the main university medical school in the region for a never ending supply of volunteer or on grant medical professionals to rotate going to Hargeisa

Mohamed, man of a South clan, wanted to built a free Children and Teaching Hospital in Hargeisa, capital of Somaliland the country without war for more than twenty years owing to his desire to help reduce the child mortality rate in the Horn of Africa then highest in the world where one of five children die due to diseases such as dysentery, malnutrition and cardiovascular


Another major aspect of the desire by late Mohamed Aden Sheikh was to establish a never ending stream of qualified local pediatrician’s thence the MAS hospital teaching program that has so far benefited a large cadre of local nurses, Doctors, lab and X-ray technicians
On 29 January 2012, the President of Somaliland Ahmed Mahmud Silanyo accompanied by government officials laid the foundation stone to start construction of MAS hospital at tits current location fully owned by the Italian MAS- CTH non-profit organization with attendant full cooperation full cooperation of the State owned Hargeisa Group Hospital adjacent to MAS.


Apart from the MOU a Convention exists between the University of Turin and the Faculty of Medicine of Hargeisa University pertaining to the manner and timing of the MAS Hospital training program for young medical graduates by Italian doctors and nurses.

The wishes of late Mohamed Aden Sheikh were fulfilled by his family in January 2013 when the Somaliland first lady Amina Mohamed Jirde ‘Amina Weris’ officiated at the opening ceremony of the MAS Children Teaching Hospital in Hargeisa for more on the MAS Children and Teaching hospital

The opening of the Mohamed Adan Sheekh Children's Hospital

Somalia: New Hargeisa Hospital Provides 24-Hour Medical Services for Children

Hargeisa — The opening of the first hospital specialising in paediatric illnesses in Hargeisa bodes well for Somalia, which has the worst child mortality rate in the world according to the United Nations.

The paediatric clinic at the Mohamed Aden Sheikh Children's Teaching Hospital opened January 26th, bringing free specialised paediatric treatement to the region for the first time.

The opening ceremony was attended by Somaliland Minister of Health Hussein Mohamud Mohamed, first lady Amina-Weris Sheikh Mohamud Jirde, Speaker of Parliament Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi, Minister of Planning Saad Haji Ali Shire, officials from the University of Hargeisa and a delegation from Onlus Somalia Association, a non-profit organisation Sheikh founded in Turin, Italy, in 2002.

A lifelong dream

"Before his death, [Sheikh] had long hoped to build a hospital in Mogadishu, but since the conflict did not recede there, he opted to implement it in Hargeisa," Mohamed said at the opening ceremony. "Even though he died, his idea survived and will endure."

Sheikh, originally from southern Somalia, had been the minister of health and the minister of culture and higher education under the Siad Barre regime, before being elected to parliament in 1980. In 1982, he was arrested for allegedly conspiring against the government of Siad Barre and was jailed until 1989, when he moved to Italy where he spent the rest of his life.

After Sheikh's death in 2010, his wife Felicita Torrielli and his friends from Turin raised funds to establish the hospital, and construction started in September 2011. Their efforts were supported by companies and agencies in Italy, Mohamed said.

Even the infamous modern day USC propaganda historian Mohamed Haji Ingiriis felt compelled to recognize the intellectual giant of post-colonial Somalia

Dr. Mohamed Aden Sheikh

A shepherd, medical doctor, communist, émigré and former Somali minister, Dr Mohamed Aden Sheikh Aw-Mohamud deserves a loving eulogy that touches hearts, but not the one for Tony Judt. Born in Somali territory in Ethiopia, he was one of the leading Somali intellectuals of his peers.

...

Prior to associating himself with Dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, Dr Mohamed Aden was one of the most revered cardiologists in Somalia. As a young graduate who specialised cardiac surgery in Italy, he began his career at Digfer Hospital. Barre found him to be a very intelligent and exploited him in planning a coup against the civilian government.

..

Soon after Barre’s rise to power, Dr Mohamed Aden was not only appointed as Health Secretary, but also the speechwriter and ‘thinker of the regime.’ For many years, he acted as a Gramscian and was the Malcolm X of Siadist dogma and its conjunction with philosophical assumption of Scientific Socialism as an ideology within dynasty (Mohamed Siad was both Elijah Mohammed and great demagogue in this case).

On his death, the city council of Torino, Italy where he lived commemorated the life of this intellectual giant. His former Italian wife speaks at 7 and then after her the Mayor.

You know and I know all that copy&paste home work was not posted for me to read. You just wanted the opportunity to post more of your Marexaan supremacist nonsense.

I couldn’t care less who was the first Somali to wipe his sh!t or his tribe. Obviously you do. You are hanging on to the past because you have no future. Today you don’t have a single man of merit bar the red lip baboon Farmaajo, a beggar guest in the African bunker, Villa Somalia. You don’t have a state or a functioning admin that you control or that represents you.

All in all keep living in yesterday, rewriting history. Because this is a forum where u are free to express your lies as facts. The only problem is reality will hold your Marexaan supremacist nonsense to account.

[theyuusuf143]

Mohamed aadan sheekh did it, because he knew the great number of innocent children that suffered at the hands of his cousin , the dictator siad barre. Atleast He washed your bad legacy. He is a true hero indeed.

[barbarossa]

That Dr. Mohamed Aden was a paragon of human decency anybody who ever knew him can attest to. Waxaa wax laga xumaado ah in ciyaal qabiil ku waashey ey maalinwalba isticmaalaan for fadhikudirir purposes, and in the process, drag through the mud the good names of Mohamed Aden iyo other historically prominent Somalis . What a shame!

At first I wanted to he equally condescending and sarcasticlly ask if you are ever not fake‐---

----but fortunately I am way past the childish adolescence that would have made me respond defensively.

Being a Somali though who knows his people very, very well; only superficiality causes the shamelessness to play a poor caricature of Mother Theresa.

Having quickly scanned your posting history, sure don't see any original reference (of yours) to that "paragon of deceny" expressed as an example or tribute anywhere.

So really, putting aside what you assume about my intention, what exactly causes one to object to a reference even they deem appropriate but remarkably seem to have never bothered with? Hmm.
