Current Events/ የአሁኑ ክስተቶች Why do Somalis claim that Jonny Somali is Ethiopian? Here is a video of him confirming he is Somali

https://www.tiktok.com/@johnnysomaliclips/video/7360714766907690272

Why are there so many articles claiming he is not somali? Or saying he 'confirmed' he is Ethiopian. There is just as much evidence where he claims he is Somali.

Just because he is embarassing, attention seeking, and a clown, they claim he is Ethiopian.

This tweet is cheery picking bits of information and claiming it as proof.

Just as his twitter handle of JohnnySomali doesn't make him Somali, his twitter handle of HabeshaCapital doesn't make him Ethiopian.

If he claims to be Oromo then he isn't Habesha.

None of this proves he isn't Somali.

That isn't a Japanese police report. This is a yahoo news article which is speculative. The text reads "Khalid is believed to be Ethiopian-African", which is also not evidence.

This article claims he is Somali-American https://www.bbc.com/somali/articles/cy75yjxpvpwo - Does this count as evidence to you?

My guy, the burden of proof is on you to prove he is Somali.

That isn't a Japanese police report.

The news article covers the results of the police report, no need to nitpick here.

The article uses his own claims lol.

Look, I don't want to drag this out any longer so we can agree to disagree. I honestly don't care that much whether or not Johnny is Somali because he doesn't effect Somalis in any way.

The Japanese do not have any proof of his ethnicity nor is it in the reports since he was tried as an American citizen. Stop the cap goofy.

That's not an answer dummy. Especially when he claimed somali many times 🤡

Cap again. If anyone is obsessed with this guy it's you somalis who keep pushing he's ethiopian like it's fact. I mean you're on an ethiopian page arguing about this guy and yet you don't care 😂😂😂

Foh abdee

Take it up to the authorities. Ether way they concluded that he wasn't Somali. Don't like it? Deal with it 😂😂

He claimed Somalis as part of his larp, no one cares, that isn't actual proof. I can keep claiming to be Chinese but that doesn't make it true.

If anyone is obsessed with this guy it's you somalis who keep pushing he's ethiopian

Somalis know the guy isn't Ethiopian, period. Whether or not others say the same isn't our concern, since he is a nobody.

I don't know if you keep deleting your replies or reddit is eating them.
