The Hargeisa Market, Somaliland Fundraiser in St. Paul
April 9, 2022
The devastating fire that destroyed the Waheen market in Hargeisa, Somaliland greatly impacted the Somali community here in Minnesota. The fundraiser directly benefited those who had suffered loss of family, friends, and business there. Joined by other Republican candidates and Party officials, it represents a new Republican effort to learn more about our neighbors and increase my campaign’s outreach.
I’m thankful for the efforts of Shukri Abirahman and Imam Tawakal Ismail for inviting us to join. Also from the community and pictured above is Fadumo Yusuf, chair of Ward 6-3; Samsam Cisman, Republican candidate in Senate District 50; Abdirizak Alibos, executive director at the Waalid Organization, and Faisal Deri.
