- Abdillahi Suldaan Mohammed Timacade
Abdillahi Suldaan Mohammed Timacade was arguably the most prominent Somali poet in his times. He was born in 1920 in a small village called Galooley, near Gabiley in North West of Somaliland. After moving to Ethiopia and Djibouti in the 40 and 50s he came back to Gabiley and took part of the independence movements against the British colony.
Timacade was famous with numerous poems and his special euphoric poem during the celebration on 26th June 1960 when Somaliland recovered its independence from the British.
In his 50s, Timacade suffered from illness on his throat and was taken to Jomo Kenyatta Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya where he had gone through a number of treatments.
Timacade died on 6 February 1973 in Kalabaydh and buried in Gabiley.
