The Mayor of East London is Somali !!!!
The KULMIYE party chairman, Ahmed Mohammed Mohamoud Silanyo, on Monday attended a dinner banquet hosted in his honour in which he was presented with honorary plaque by Ahmed Omer, mayor of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
The event, sponsored by the local Somali businesses and community organisations, was attended by several traditional leaders as well as local Somali community representatives from across London. Silanyo said: “ It is an honour for me to attend this great dinner tonight and to be presented with such a gift. None of you, I think, was in this country in 1957 when as a young student I used to visit regularly Somali seafarers living in the docklands of Tower Hamlets”. “I never thought that one day, one of their children [the seafarers] will grow up to be a mayor and present me this gift [plaque]. I congratulate the mayor for becoming the first ever Somali mayor in the UK”. Silanyo has already visited several European countries and towns in the United Kingdom.
With a very tight schedule, he was nevertheless able to attend dinner with Somali community members in Tower Hamlets. Tower Hamlets marked a historic occasion in May 2009 with the confirmation of Ahmed Omer as the first Somali mayor in the UK, making him the borough’s forty-fifth mayor at the age of 45.

Re: The Mayor of East London is Somali !!!!
I think a correction is in order. I mean if the guy invited Silanyo to a dinner party, he must be a Silanyo supporter which in turn would make him a Somalilander and not just a Somali!
As you were.

Just like Camden, bengali followed closely by Somali. But than again Camden and Tower Hamlets waa isku dhow yihiin.
Next Mayor of Camden will be an AY supporter inshallah.

Re: The Mayor of East London is Somali !!!!
I think bengali are the majority in Tower Hamlets but they are followed by Somalis, as for the mayor

You must be a kid with access to the internet. This is what the girl gets getting to know you, exposing her in public.
As for the mayor, to those who know him, is he somali first or Issaq? That is the question. Does he serve somalis or his tiny geeljire clan?
