Somali exiles in the 20th century

My grandfather and all his siblings (along with their father) AUN were exiled to seychelles for several years. I've never met them since they passed a long time ago.
After exile, they had to move to Djibouti and start a new life there. My parents says that they were involved in something but there's a big jump in narration and all we hear is that they ended up in Mogadishu decades later.

I also ask this because I studied in France, and in a history class they told us that political prisoners were sent to seychelles.

I was wondering if anyone knows anything about / or who has family that were 'exiled' sometime in the 1900s? and why they were potentially exiled? I only thought my family were reer badiyo.

Ina Cali Shire was exiled then given a medal. Was your family with him or is he parr of your family?
 
Yeah i think, they lost their Somali Culture. They are now full Seychelese.

That story was on the Somali Websites and Somali forums, many years a go.
I think some SSspot members know the Story well.
He had almost 100 kids. Ina ali shire.
Some of his grandkids became natives in scheylles. Some became politicians. Some still hold the sultnateship till today
