They're just going with the flow. They are so used to hearing people being referred to as "Americans, Ghanians, Jamaicans, Canadians etc" that they think "somalians" is the right word to use. Correct them and then let it slide

John: Hello Cadeey how are you?
Cadeey: I am fine thanks! Thank God its Friday.*Smiles*
