Somalia-1960 to 1969

[guhad122]

A nation doesn't become a nation if it doesn't know its history. Even though, our history for the last 20 years has been very bad, but remember that we existed as a nation way before that. I would like to collect historical information about elected Somali MPs from the Somali civilian goverments from 1960 to 1969. That civilian goverment was never perfect but I have to give them a credit for having elections. Please post any link that you find interesting about these MPS.
Here is one of those MPS:
Kenedit Ahmed Yusuf:
Hon. Kenedit was born in 1928 at Qallafo. He attended Quranic schools, later Italian Primary Schools in Mogadishu and in 1945 studies at Institutes established by the British Administration.

He joined the SYC, later called the SYL, in 1946. In 1951 he won a competition for a customs officer's post. After further studies, received a teacher's Diploma, and was sent to Italy for an advanced course.

He served as a teacher, and later as a head, Customs services, Mogadishu, until he got a diploma from the capital's University Institute. Rome University had him as a Political Science student from 1958 to 1961 when he graduated.

Upon his return home, Hon. Kenedit worked for a while at the Ministry of Finance and from September 1961 to earlier of 1964 he was Extraordinary Commissioner for Mogadishu City. Berdere sent him to the National Assembly as an SYL deputy in March 1964."

I hope the day will come when Like Kenadiid, I would an elected MP from either Kismaayo or Badhaadhe. My biography should not include my little family beef with the Ilka-Yars. I will be opposing AW who would be elected from Hobyo because rumor has it that he paid huge sums of money for his election.

The SYL was useless. It didn't fight to free Somalia. It didn't free Somalia. Other countries were involved in armed struggles to gain freedom from the colonizers. Somalia was handed its independence on a silver plate.

Without voilence, SYL led Somalia to freedom. I would rather get freedom through peaceful means and that is exactly what SYL did....I am not saying we didn't need to fight the Ethiopians, but kudos to the SYL, read about this MP from Afmadow:
Sheikh Mohamud Mohamed Farah:
Hon. Sheikh Mohamud was born in 1917 in near Dagahbur, Dagahmado District attended Quranic School and was in Mogadishu a pupil of prominent Holy Men, learning "Al Figih". In 1942 he studied at a Government school under the late Moallim Jama Bilal; in 1962 obtained the Diploma from the Institute of Islamic Displines, Mogadishu.

A member of the SYL since 1944, he was immediately appointed Inspector-General of all the local officies, and a member of the Central Committee in 1947. Two years later he and five other SYL leaders were confined to forced residence by the British Administration.

A Territorial Councillor from 1952 to 1956, Sheikh M.M. Farah was elected to the Legislative Assembly as a deputy from Afmadow in 1956, and again in 1959. During the second Legislature he became Minister of Grace and Justice. In 1960 he became Secretary-General of the SYL, holding the post until 1963. In the general election of March 1964 he was re-elected at Afmadow.

You are not getting ABM, Guhaad. Somalia was handed its independence on a silver platter in 1949 when the United Nations Security Council ruled Somalia would be under UN Trusteeship for 10 years which would prepare it for independence in 1960.

Somalia never had to fight for independence. We were given it on a silver platter.

The SYL was the first political party that rose as a RESULT of that preparation. The Italians were given the task by the UN to administer the preparation for independence which was overseen by the Security Council.

The SYL's history has went through 100% revisionism.
