Maybe we should define the meaning of prominent in this context? two possible meaning noticeable or celebrated?

Certainly, Ayan Hirsi is one of the most noticeable Somalis while Ahmed Gurey is one of the most celebrated.

 

Meaning and context people without accusing each other of ulterior motives.

Agreed!

It depends on the 'people' you are referring to, sir. I wouldn't expect some people to recognize some names regardless of their prominence.

Regardless of their achievements, their names ring out. It says prominent, not distinguished, distinguish both of those words.

Sayidka

SYL

Xalane

A. H. Hussein( Hope he feels better odayga)

Siyad Barre
