Dr Maxamed Saciid Samatar (Gacaliye) a notable intellectual elite. Was part of SYL and the freedom for Somalia. He was a great asset to the diplomacy of Somalia. He held numerous roles in the politics of Somalia in 1960 and beyond.

Mohamed Said Samantar was born in Wardheer in the Somali Galbeed. While very young, he participated in the fight for his country’s independence. In 1949 he joined the Somali Youth League, a movement opposing the British occupation.

In 1960, M.S. Samantar joined the Somali Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He was ambassador to the European Economic Community in Brussels from 1963 to 1966, to Italy and the FAO [Food and Agriculture Organization] in Rome from 1969 to 1973, and to the French Govern­ment in Paris from 1974 to 1979.

He was appointed minister of state at the presidency in Mogadishu in 1979 and placed in charge of relations with the Western powers in a particularly touchy regional and international context involving the commit­ment of the USSR and Cuba on behalf of Ethiopia.
