Hadaaftimo Declaration

There is a famous declaration that came after a Grand meeting was held in Hadaaftimo in 1993 were the elders and the former Sultan Abdisalam declared that Somalia is one and the Warsangelis will not recognise any other entity.

Also Hadaaftimo suffered the horrendous attack of the rebel SNM in 1989 but suffered badly after the Hadaftimonians counter-attacked with the help of Somali government.

Hadaaftimo is the seat of current Sultan of Warsangeli, Sultan Saed Sultan Abdisalam Sultanate of Mohamoud Ali Shire (Warsangeli Sultanates), which also have known as the Makhir Coast Sultanate.
