My fathers has 38 siblings, the youngest 20 years old and the oldest 73 years old, there's no point in keeping track where they live, My mothers family are kind of all over the place too but nothing compared to my dads family.
They live pretty much anywhere where you can find Somalis with the exception of one cousin who lives in Ukraine.

The only country that I have been to so far and haven't seen any Somalis besides myself and the folks with me was in Ivory Coast.
Zero Somalis there, even in the Capital.

Somalis have an aversion to West Africa. It makes their skinniness more obvious and pronounced.

so who is left in somalia?
are your families, the ones left in somalia, what happen to them? couldnt they get space in the banana boats?

am not serious at all
but it begs the question if all the country's brightest and well off have left somalia, who do we expect to run and keep the peace in the country?
