The Somali population has been inflated by NGOs for more aid money or their Somali employees seeking to beef up their clan numbers. There are no more than 15-20 million ethnic Somalis in East Africa.

The number of Somalis does not exceed 25 million. Look at the Somali cities, most of which are only 15kmΒ² and the rest of the land is baadiyo Where you only see A few nomads

Let's be honest I don't think we are even closer to 15 million 4 million northerners 2.5 million in the capital and at least 5 million in south and central that's makes us 11.5 million.

Incorrect walaalo, can you show me evidence as there is less than or more than 23 million Somalis as it is around 30 something million range.

Google Earth and my experiences a large Somali city and the Ogaden bush says otherwise my friend. The Ogaden claim to be the biggest Somali clan (which I don't dispute) but how big can they really be when I went days without seeing anyone?

You can also locate any Somali on Earth that is not purposely hiding from other Somalis, provided that I have their full name and qabiil. That to me says we are not a big ethnic group.

That was true in 2011, its 30-32M right now.


Somali population growth is really that stupidly high, it's over 4% by far the highest in the world. Somali population growth is so high, the UN is actually underestimating our fertility rates.

That’s impossible and if you had ever been there you would know it. I went to a lot of parts of SL and trust me beside hargeisa and burco these lands are almost empty

35 million is an overexaggeration. It's anywhere between 20 and 25 million. The Somali population isn't that big.
