Osman Yusuf Kenadid

The Osmanya script, also known as far soomaali or "Somali writing", is a writing script created to transcribe the Somali language. It was invented between 1920 and 1922 by Osman Yusuf Kenadid of the Majeerteen Darod clan, the nephew of Sultan Yusuf Ali Kenadid of the Sultanate of Hobyo.

He should be in the list.

1- M Faarax Caydiid
2- K'naan
3- Ayan Xirsi


The only somalis to have mass exposure across the world.

Xirsi to be isn't really Somali due to her apostasy , but she is by DNA.

[zingii]

qabilist.

[melo]

qabilist.

Are you talking to me? Tell me 3 more famous Somalis than the 3 i mentioned. I am not talking just nationally. I am talking fii kulli caalimiyaa. Siyaad barre is only known by east africans and people who are interested in politics.

[zingii]

Not you bro, the post above you had me laughing.

[afisoone]

My favorite people in the world are:

1. Saciid Afisoone
2. Sayid Cabdule Xassan
3. ##################

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My least favorite is:

1. M. Farax Caydiid---------------Al-mooryaan. Somali is safe without Caydiid. That is fact deal with it the mooryaans.

Yep. Forgot about her.

I've been thinking.. should Ayan xirsi be number 1? She is very well known amongst Cadaan people, and every Somali i know knows her.

[union]

1. Iman
2. K'naan
3. Ayan Hirsi
4. Siyad Barre

No one else.

7.Aadan Cade

[melo]

1. Iman
2. K'naan
3. Ayan Hirsi
4. Siyad Barre

No one else.

Siyaad barre has NO BUSINESS being in there. My cadaan classmates know Caydiid from black hawk down. They've never heard of Siyaad barre. Siyaad is only known to East Africans, and people who study politics.

Black Hawk Down= Caydiid's fame. He was the man who chased America away.

Siyaad is irrelevant.

As for Imaan being the most famous Somali... .
