The article will cover historical stations in the biography of President Adam Abdullah Othman, the man whom the Somalis love and appreciate in general. This sympathy for the president will not prevent him from stopping at his own point and reviewing the stations of his autobiography. Of its size and position
The purpose of the article is not to undermine the history of a militant and ruler who issues the rule of Somalia and the state of its independence, but not to lose sight of its negative role in the modern history of the Somali state, and that it has issued a trend that changed the course of Somali aspirations in exchange for access to power and stay in the government, which he could not achieve Try it.
Adam Abdullah Othman gained early political status from the legitimacy of the revolution. He was one of the Somali youth who joined early into the Somali Youth University (SYL) in the branch of Baldawin in Hiran. This branch formed one of the most active and prominent branches of the party. Later, he moved to the leadership of the upper party
He later became president of the Somali parliament under Italian colonial rule and head of the militant party. Later he became Somalia's first president in 1960 until 1967, when he lost the post to his comrade, rival and Prime Minister Abdul Rashid Ali Sharmarki
His personality was not characterized by leadership abilities and his greatest advantage was that he was a compromise man, in other words, to hold the stick in the middle to reconcile the interests of the elite of the Mujahideen and the Huayi politically
And from the stations that call for stopping, which can be seen through the personality of President Adam Abdullah, the incident, which paid him the Prime Minister Abdul Rashid Ali Sharmarki a landmark strike in 1963, when signed the Association Agreement with Moscow without reference to him and contrary to the concept of positive neutrality that Was followed by Somalia at that stage, that President Adam Abdullah, did not take any political action towards the Prime Minister
After placing Adam Uday in front of the reality imposed on him, the latter justified the position that he was subjected to the Sharmarki coup, that he could disrupt Sharmarki's signature of the Convention, but did not want to follow his behavior
He was aware that the direction of militarization was a Somali national option that Adam had no power to stop. He could have thrown him out of power if he objected so easily.
Politically, the president was not politically wise and in the tribal account, he descended from the small and very poor Wadajeen tribe in terms of the influence of its political elites, which were already ruled by others. This was based on the support of the tribal political elite from which Sharmarkey descended , In other words that the latter was a president under the shadow of
Of course, the impact of this social reality on politics does not necessarily mean that it is counted on the former president, but the purpose of talking about it is to refer to the political reality that existed in the country and its impact on public affairs and the course of political life
Sharmaki's work with President Adam Uday was the last one he had with the giant Hajji Mohamed Haj Hussein in 1956, when Adam Uday paid for the dismissal of Haj Mohammed of the Somali Youth Unity Party, because the latter had the option of achieving total independence by confronting the Italians directly
In the absence of Haj Mohammed, and his presence in Egypt was coup for him in favor of influential party, which led to Hajj Mohammed Hajj Hussein, later to the establishment of the Great Somali Party
Through the early anticipation of the removal of the historical fighter from the party, he was excluded at the state stage of the government to satisfy those who were below his level and for the external circles, especially Italy
And the difference between Adam Abdullah and Haj Mohammed Hussein, that the first has bowed to the makers of real, while Istisl II resistance to the policies of these, and surrounded by a large number of former comrades and who were involved in the new national party, he is the extraordinary man in modern Somali history, He was a great stardom
President Adam Abdullah Othman left the presidency in 1967 and was not in power as many Somalis thought. However, the actual president in the shadows was determined to announce his actual rule, especially since the former had lost what he could do if he returned to The presidency through the 1967 elections, and the signs of the low political position at the time that a song was issued on the occasion and among its words Waadiiga liitow leexadu ku siidatow
