I’m not that clear on internal Somali politics. But have a vague idea about why he cares about Somalia.
Guess who is the is the Minnesota 5th District Representative is in the House of Representatives. Guess what Minnesota District has a significant Somali-American population.
So if this a contentious issue in the Somali diaspora, and I don’t know if it is, my theory is this all about Rep. Ilhan Omar.
