Yes, it's the famous mudulood professor Togane. Somalia's best poet and entertaining as well.
This is an excerpt from his "The piping times of peace in Somalia"
"That is all I have been trying
to teach
to preach
to practice
to proffer
to prescribe
What is it
that the Macavity Majerten have got
that the rest of the Somali clans haven’t got?
that was your question
that is what you want to know
The Macavity Majerten have
something in spades
that other Somalis have
only a smidgen of
That something is called
Moxie
The ability
to laugh at the lie called life
to look at the stars EVEN while wallowing in the ditch!
to never give up!
to never quit!
to roll with the punches!
to never lose the initiative
to outstare the enemy till he blinks!
to face difficulty
with sardonic smile
with spirit
with courage
with savoir-faire
with flair
with brio
with pizzazz
with panache
with chutzpah
with the cohonos
with sang-froid
with cool
with nonchalance
with élan
with impeccability born of patience
with Majerten Macavitism
with Je-ne-sais-quoi
that proclaims to all & sundry
just because I am going to kick the bucket
don’t expect me
to be scared stiff
to be scared silly
don’t expect me
to blubber all over myself
to slobber all over myself
like a poltroon!
like Scaredy Cat!
like Igal Shidaad! "
