@Generalissimo Aren't you in Somalia right now?
What's the word on the ground regarding this SSpot Bantu frenzy?
Haha I knew that this thread would go off-topic
Well I left Somalia a couple of weeks ago but from what i gathered when I was there it certainly isn't something people speak about in public settings (or not in public settings that I take part in)
And I was only around Banadiir and didn't go to the regions between Shabeelaha and Jubbada. I would say that at least 30-40% of the IDP in the Mogadishu area are Somali Bantus. They are the ones who are doing all the "dirty"and "low-status" work in Mogadishu that other somalis who are from the major qabiils are refusing to do out of pride.
I still remember when I asked some cousins and their friends in the neighborhood I was staying in that we should go and clean up the "mainstreet" where we usually used to drive on with our car because it would always be a hazard when it started to rain and the cars would get stuck. Niccas responded with
"We don't want to pick up the qashin in that public street with our bare hands like some Madow, what if some girls see us?"

I personally believe that as long as you speak somali fluently and want dhulka hooyo to prosper and are willing to work hard for your family and nation that you are 100% a somali citizen. But at the same time I don't want somalis to become a minority in their own country (a fear that has turned into a frenzy and almost a meme here on SS), so I don't care if its a radical influx of Habash, Bantus, Asians or dad cadaan I would be against it in most cases. But most Somali Bantus have been in this country for centuries and several generations and consider them only somalis and nothing else. Sorry for long rant haha
