Well if it is a updated version of the SNM flag as you admit then why claim Cigaal created it? If a software is updated doesn't mean the original creator
didn't create it . The only thing Cigaal did was print money from Sudan but still that created conflicts and wasn't even accepted in many regions in Somaliland
as late as 2012 a decade after his death.

may be i used the wrong "created" word, but we all now his adminstration has designed the latest version of the flag. but you are wrong too when you say the only thing he did is printing money from sudan lool, you must be joking. both egal and rayaale failed to replace the somali shilling from togdheer and sanaag, not because they were rejected but they did not do their best to replace, they did not have the resources and the capacity todo so.

Well you can say his Gov might have altered it a bit, but the flag belonged to the SNM as early as the 80s. Dahir Riyaale was a different matter, but the reason
Egal failed to implant it was because of suspicions people had for him. Heck his administration only existed in parts of Hargeisa, Berbera and Gabiley as late
as 1997. When your sphere of influence is only limited to certain areas of course it will not be possible to implant it, it wasn't about lack of resources.
