We ought to stop entertaining online trolls who go around hoteping anything and everything there is. This guy on twitter or "x" is a well know somali hater and i once saw him and his fellow somali haters claiming land as far as berbera and borama.
I've noticed that usually somalis who pedal these claims tend to be cringy self hating arab simping hoteps who tend to fetishizing arabnimo. You'll see them cosplaying arabs and screaming ana carab and carb are the superior race clearly going against the very teaching of islam. They might as well scream ya carb similar to how the shia scream ya ahlul al-bayt.
You don't really need to look that far to find sources mentioning somalis living in zeila case and point look at ibn battuta an eye witness who described the inhabitants of zaylac as being black berbers and even included them alongside mogadishu the only two cites his travelled to on the somali coast as part of the coast of berber. Another eye witness who also described the inhabitant of zeila as berbers and also included them in the land of berber can be found in the account of al-yaquti. If you wanna go even older than this you'll find al-idrisi who included zaylac as part of the land of berber. A better question would be is there any arabic account describing the inhabitant of zaylac as danakil or afar?
Somalis didn't only live in zaylac but beyond that all the way to the ghoubbet. The ugaas of issa was said to have regiend over lands as far north as the ghoubbet. Afars where nowhere near zaylac meanwhile tadjoura was paying tribute to zaylac until the latter half of the 19th century.
The french treaty signed between the somalis and the french described the extend of the somali presence on the coast of djibouti and it even wrote down the names of various somali cheifes residing on these coasts in the 19th century. Here is what it:
