They even have one of the best Somali markets I have ever seen

That's just a rumour. The ones in NFD speak perfect Somali just like the rest. The ones deep in Kenya and Tanzania from the colonial days though can't. People mistake the two

Lower shabelle and the ones in Kenya have now just started to connect with each other over the last few years. Same way the Ogaden from Kenya help the ones in jubaland. Word around town Garre business men in mandera and moyale are starting to fund and buy weapons for the Garre in LS.
