Angelina Jolie oo ah gabadh  caan ku ah xaga jilista filimaanta ayaa waxay hadiyad uga dhigtay ninkeeda Brad Pitt diyaarad helikopter ah xuska maalinta dhalashadiisa awgeed sida uu cadayeeya wargeyka caanka ah ee loo yaqaan  The Sun.

Diyaadaradan oo qiimaheeda lagu qadaray ilaa 1 malyuun oo dolerka  mareykanka ah ayaa hada la soo duldhigay fooqa sare ee guriga weyn ee ay ku leeyihiin koonfurta dalka faraans ee loo yaqaan Miraval.

Diyaaradan ayaa labada jilaa ugu safari  doonaan  magaalada Cannes oo ay ka dhacdo bandhiga filimada ee aduunka kadib marka ay  Brad ”farxadi waa naxdin” kaga dhigto maalinta dhalashadiisa . lamaanahan ayaa shaaciyay inay is guursan doonaan 11ka bishan ogosto wakhti ay dhacayso bandhiga 65aad ee filimada oo lagu qabto magaalada Cannes.

Hearing of the death of Dr. Abdishakur Sh. Ali Jowhar struck me as a thunderbolt out of the blue. At no time can one be prepared for death but at times like this it is simply unbearable. The following eulogy poem is therefore a tribute to my friend, eminent scholar, unique thinker and philosopher, medical doctor and above all my irreplaceable intellectual soul mate and hero who was snatched by an untimely death in a tragic and unforgivable car accident on one of Somaliland’s deathtrap roads, between Dilla and Borama, on 13th May 2012.

Dr. Jowhar was a man blessed with the gift of gab and it was our mutual love for words and ideas that brought us together. It is therefore imperative that I remember him in the way he knew and respected me best, as a poet. In time, I will write an obituary about him to share his life as I knew him with his fans and the general public but now let me try to touch on his character, his intellectuality, his passion, his bravery, his kindness, his wisdom, his patriotism, his rebellious thought and his modesty as well as his humor, his sarcasm and his flare with language in the following poem: Geesi Loo Hanweynaa ( A Greatly Sought After Hero).

Brief Biography of Dr. Abdulshakur Sh. Ali Jowhar

Hearing the sudden death of an old friend and school mate was so shocking and sad. Today is a very sad day of all the people of Somaliland, and particularly the people of Borma city where Dr. Abdul Shakur Sh.Ali Jowhar was hailed from.  Dr. Abdulshaku Sh. Ali Jowhar was the son of a preeminent religious scholar and a legend, Sh. Ali Jowhar.

The great doctor has descended from a prominent family whose history spans back to the ancient Muslim city of “Adarri” (Harrar) and Zeila.  Let me first of all take the time to send my  heartfelt condolence to the large Sheikh Ali Jowhar family. Dr. Abdulskakur came from an extended and very large family that resides in several Horn of Africa countries such as Somaliland, Djibouti and Ethiopia. His father Sheikh Ali Jowhar was a well-referred, preeminent religious scholar who was so famous in the Horn of Africa and beyond.

His father was not only famous but was a “legendary” religious scholar who spent so much time in spreading Islam through the Horn of Africa. Dr. Abdi Shakur went to both elementary and Middle school in the city of Borama, the Republic of Somaliland. His successfully completed his high school was in prestigious Amoud Secondary school, the modern Amoud  University. He successfully received a scholarship to learn medicine from Egypt where he attended and successful graduated from a medical college in Alexandria, Egypt.   He has completed his medical school and became a physician from a prestigious medical college in Egypt.  When he became a medical Doctor, he was immigrated to Canada where he started practicing his specialty (psychiatry) medicine. While practicing medicine, He went back to Graduate School in the medical field of psychiatry in Canada. For nearly 20 years he was practicing psychiatry in both Canada and the United States; but Toronto, Canada was his home base city. Moreover, Dr. Abdulshakur was a man of multi-talents, he was not a psychiatrist also, but was also great advocate and defender of the Somaliland cause. He was also an avid writer in international politics in general, and the Horn of Africa and middle in particular. One can read his in depth political analyses comprising of so many political topics in the internet.  His lost will open a gigantic void in Somaliland. In his short life, he was a man who touched huge number of people and he will surely be missed. His family and him recently moved back to Somaliland and opened a private medical practice in Hargeisa.  We will surely miss him. May God bless his soul!
