    Im Darod and I agree the 4.5 system is ridiculous. There should be no tribalism in law, and we should have a proper democracy with rule of law. That being said, I do wonder about Barawani people. The ones I've met growing up in the UK tend to flip-flop between claiming Somali and reject it and claim to be Yemeni. That alongside the fact they stick to themselves made it pretty clear to me that they don't really want to be Somali.

    Hello! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. This really helped me for my school project, I’m glad that I chose Dada Masiti as my figure. In this project I had to come up with a way to commemorate Dada Masiti and chose a location (I choose a mural). My question for you is how would you commemorate her and where? Thank you again! :)

      @@natalierios9010 You're very welcome! I'm so glad to hear that we could help with your project and that you chose Dada Masiti-an incredible figure of Banadiri literature and spirituality-to focus on. Your idea of a mural is fantastic because it's a powerful celebrate her legacy. If I were to commemorate Dada Masiti, I’d create a poetry garden in her honor. The poetry garden, could be in her hometown barawa where she lived, it would be a peaceful space with her verses engraved on stones, surrounded by native plants. This idea celebrate her as a poet and spiritual leader while offering spaces for learning and reflection. What inspired your idea of a mural, and where did you imagine it? 😊

      ⁠​@@thebanadirfactor306I love that idea, such a beautiful concept! I was also thinking of locating the mural somewhere in her hometown. I decided on a mural because of the fact that poetry is a form of art itself. Also I think that murals tend to catch people’s attention. On the mural I would put a sample of her writing from Ya Rabbi Ya Muta’ali. This is because it tells part of her story and shows what she’s gone through. - Much appreciated!

But as important is solutions or ideas for solutions, and characters like Shariif Abubakar Yaawaalidi for example recently addressed that in his interview. If it is possible I think you should do an interview with him. He is a very important Benaadiri figure.
