Who inhabited Jubaland first?

This is interesting read, specially the part about the castration. The Arsi(Caruusa) oromo who are eastern oromo also did this until recently, in the last 100 years. They did it to my grand uncle, my dad's adeer. if the oromo expanded to the north 100s of years ago, this means they kept this savage practice for that long. And the Arsi are supposed to be the more "civilized" of these barbarians.
sad where was this
 
Somalis, strictly. Then, Boran groups expanded and absorbed specific clans within the Somaloids, such as Garre, Gabra, and Sakuye -- these are people who know themselves to be Somali clan-wise but are acculturated into the ethnic Oromo umbrella due to medieval expansion of the southern Oromo. This happened around the 15th and 16th century. Before that, the Oromos did not live in those regions. The Oromo expansion happened both northwards and southwards simultaneously.
What languages did the Gabra, Garra and Sakuye speak before this expansion? What language do they speak today and how much of an impact did the Oromo expansion have on their DNA?
