You know already where its located...lakin I'll tell you the rest..

iskushuban also known as diarrhea heaven.lol was discovered by osman mohamuds and dishiishe & WArsangeli, dubays to be exact about 600 hundred years ago and was a home to the great kingdom of my great grandfather boqor osman.

There is no agriculture but is considered as a hidden gem compare to other cities in somalia due to the treasure that has been found in its ocean in the past, It is also rumored that it has mountains with higher elevations that hold caches of rare gems. the people there trade gums or beeyo, ivory, animal skins and incense and live off of fish.lol

hope that helped...i'll ask more about the family members who have more knowledge of it for ya inshallah. Cool
