Not 100% sure it's her, but it sounds like it is. Has there ever been any mention of her living in Mombasa, Kenya as a child? Where is obummer from again? Anyways, she claims mogadishu isn't safe for her so she can only go back to puntland (region way NE of mogadishu). Also there is a video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snAO1GPm0-w ) on her blogspot that clearly shows somalia is a shit hole -- even has sad music. not sure any of this means anything, just reporting what I found. Somewhere near the end there is a section where it sounds like shes made returning to puntland to do politics there a goal. but due to the wording it could have meant she just wishes better things for puntland.
text from her old blogspot, which links to the next article. the original site wasn't up anymore, but wayback had it.
"About Me
I am a student of the universe, I love learning and passing on what I learned to others who could benefit from it. As a child my father and grandfathers always welcomed my inquisitive personality, even encourage it. I am a loving mother of two and a wife to the love of my life. Nearly two years ago I decided to go back to school and obtain a bachelor degree before my child did, lol. I initially thought it would be a trying time in my life and it was, but it turned out to be the most rewarding and life changing time of my life, excluding the birth of my children. My quest to earn my degree and further my education has reawakened my desire for knowledge. This has let me to visit my home country of Somalia, particularly my fathers birth region of Puntland, also because its the only safe region for me to visit. My experience were profound as I embark on my three month journey, not only did I visit Puntland but I got to visit Mogadishu by birthplace. I also went to visit and deliver food to refugees and famine victims in Dobley and Dadaab refugee camps. I myself lived in refugee camp in Mombasa, Kenya as child decade ago, so it was rewarding, dangerous and live changing. I hope to share stories of the things I have seen, heard and the people who have touched my life on my journey with you on upcoming posts....welcome "

In an interview released by Bosaso Press in Garowe, Puntland, she first had a misunderstanding in Puntland and was surprised when she saw her eyes on the development of the major towns in Puntland.
The delegation was received at the airport in Bosaso on Thursday, and said that they visited the schools, universities, the port of Bosasso, as well as airports in several days.
"It was the first time I came to Puntland, and I think it was a bit unstable and I believe that Puntland is comprised of small villages without electricity or telephone. I am pleased, "said Ilhan, adding that it never endorsed this progress in Puntland.
He added that he had been reunited with his colleagues in the United States and encouraged them to arrive in Puntland without fear of peace, but said they were disappointed with their statements.
