He is very proud of his mother tongue, unlike many arabophile Somalis. Congratulations to him for representing his mother tongue so unabashedly.
You will notice that one of the female presenters called Somali a "lahja" ie a dialect, when Somali is not a dialect. They were too polite to say it's rotana, as the arabised Sudanese call the indigenous non Arab languages.
I'm impressed with Nimcaan Hilaac, he didn't dabble in a few Arabic words, as unsophisticated Somalis like to do, but spoke his mother tongue loud and clear.
Labaatan iyo laba aamustiyo, shaqal irmaaneeya
Amraniyo tilmaamiyo gudbe, aade iyo jooge
Isku-dare, xiriiriye falkaab, ereyadeeni ah
Ebyaniyo haddaan magac-u-yaal, ku arkay joornaalka
Mar haddii afkaygii la qoray, aabbe iyo hooyo
Mar haddaan ammaahsigi ka baxay, lagu agoontoobay
Abaal waxa leh nimankii fartaa, soo abaabulaye
Amiirnimo sin iyo garab jirtay, nagu abuureene
Afafkaa qalaad iyo maxaa, eregta ii dhiibtey
Anaa macallinoo raba dad loo, furo iskuulaade

Somali clans are not same predecessors like Darood iyo Isaaq iyo hawiya iyo jareer or D&M .
The arab predecessors somali are Darood iyo isaaq others are the somali native of somalia .
At the end we all somalis
