Yousuf Godir Gladly to see a detailed information that was published in this web site. However, I intersted to bribg to light two points for correction:

At the begining of the following paragraph the term held by president Ali was two year transitional period. Also in the second paragraph the city of the Borama was not included thase destroyed by ragime Barre militarily. in the thir paragraph the date that elders met and declared the withdraw of the union was 1991.

I hope you succss

When President Ali completed his four-year transitional term, he was succeeded by President Mohammed Ibrahim Egal, who was elected by the Elders Council and Parliament. Mr. Egal was won two successive terms and led Somaliland for years until his demise during his second term in 2003 at the age of 78. A national funeral was held for Mr. Egal at the port city of Berbera- his birthplace.

General Barre ruled Somalia for 25 years at gun point. He used his so-called national army forces to destroy major northern cities such as Buroa, Berbera, Borama and the current capital of Somaliland Hargiesa. Aircrafts taking off from Hargiesa International Airport bombed Hargiesa City leaving behind more than 50,000 women and children dead during 1988.

Elders of former British Somaliland met in the eastern city of Burao on May 1990 to announce the establishment of an independent Republic of Somaliland on 18th Nay 1990, ending 26 years of occupation by leaders mainly from former Italian Somalia. They formed the first the transitional government of Somaliland with Abdurrahman Ahmed Ali as its first president.
