Faheema. Posted June 11, 2003 Hello nomads. I feel like I should be a little more proactive, it's been almost 4 months since I’ve joined this family and still haven't managed to become a “nomad”. I guess I am to blame for neglecting you guys, but hey, one has to get her priorities straight dee, when you got 4 babies, cat and a hamster to feed, lol. Anyways, I thought it might be a good idea to play a little guessing game that is both entertaining and informative. It’s called “Who Am I”. It’s pretty simple. You choose a public figure, (preferably a Somali) then you start by giving 3 clues of whom you’re talking about; it could be general thing about that person or vital clues (thought I prefer to give vital clues towards the end, makes the game a bit more challenging). Then whoever gets it right starts giving clues for the second person, and so on (you can’t start another without getting the previous one right). So, let me begin. Who am I? I am a Somali female I am in my late 60’s My work allows me to travel occasionally If nobody gets it right by this time tomorrow, (Insha Allah) I’ll give more clues. It’s an easy one… Good luck.

Abdinuur Posted June 11, 2003 I am not familiar with Somali public figures...dont ask me why...but my guess would be one of those Somali singers...it's hard to tell which one cuzz I dont know their age...but most definitely a Somali singer. Why...cuzz they travel occasionally to perform at different places...lol. Whatchu think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Changed Posted June 12, 2003 ok shyma i dont know the answer to ur question... but i think i know who illmatic was referring to ...boqol son...i think that how we write his name.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faheema. Posted June 12, 2003 BINGO... Gacanlibax1 , you got it right. She looks young for her age, but I do believe she is in her late 60's. Here's a little info about her... Edna Adan Ismail , an internationally renowned health professional and former WHO representative. Edna Adan Ismail personally contributed US$350,000 to the development of this much-needed maternity hospital in the capital city of Hergeisa. The Edna Adan Maternity Hospital provides antenatal care and supervised childbirth by trained midwives and doctors, acting also as an educational and training centre for a new generation of nurses and midwives. The hospital also hopes to undertake much-needed research on the reproductive health status of Somali women. As a long-term activist for women's rights, Edna Adan Ismail has continued her campaign to end the practice of female genital mutilation, primarily through the counselling of families attending the hospital. In Somaliland, infibulation (the severest form of female genital mutilation) affects almost 100% of women. Ms. Ismail is also a Somaliland's Minister of Family and Social Affairs illmatic , I see you already got the second cadidate.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
