is the second/third round on the same day?

Highly doubt it, a week later is how it's done in Europe and that sounds quite reasonable.

Run off elections in Europe happen weeks later because they have to create a new election and organize it for the millions of citizens that will be voting.

Run off elections in Somalia only have the 275 MP's voting.

Many MPs vote as a tribal block, how are they supposed to decide who to vote for within the same day?

MP tribal voting is at the minimum man. There is money involved here. No MP is influenced by qabiil when they have a wad of cash shoved in their faces. There is a reason why the MP's have bought their seats for thousands of dollars. It wasn't just for the hell of being an MP but because of the monetary gain in this election.

Why would that DM MP vote for that DM presidential candidate when the Darod candidate gave him the most money? Makes no sense. These MP's dont care about Darodnimo or Hawiyonimo.

The MP's have already chosen who they are voting for. If their candidate loses in the first round, they'll go for the second man that gave them the second highest bribe.

It all on the same day. All of it literally gets done within 6 hours.

Like Shirib said, it will be completed in one sitting. Mostly likely 2-3 rounds.

It's not the people who are voting where new elections have to be organized but 275 parliamentarians who do not move from their seats.

The presidential votings
All the day.
each mp will vote 3 times.
First round 30 candidates
Second round 3 candidates nearly two from each clan.
Third round 2 candidates from two clans
In the second, third rounds, each clans candidates will vote for their surviver.
