In the words of a famous HG traditional leader, "If you don't want to make a peace with him, don't meet him". I am not sure who the elder was but, I remember watching that on YouTube years ago. Ahmed Madobe is one of the most talented, experienced and conversant leaders in proper Somalia today. He is cool, calm, and collected. He uses humor to break the ice, which is a trait not known for most Somali leaders. Humor eases the scariest and the edgiest situations, and puts things into prospective.
