Great program acquainting us with some of the verses of a great Somali poet and historical figure, Sh. Haji Ali Abdirahman.
We, Somalis, should be forever thankful to have men and women like Idaajaa who have dedicated their lives to the collection and preservation of our cultural and historical past for posterity. They are, without shadow of a doubt, the true custodian of our heritage and our way of life.
