Hudun (Template:Langx) is a historical town in the northern Sool, region of Somalia,[2] and the seat of the Hudun District.[3] Khatumo has effectively controlled there since around 2023.[citation needed]
Overview
Located in north west Somalia, Hudun lies 59 kilometres north by road from the provincial capital of Las Anod.[4]
Education
According to the Ministry of National Planning and Development in Somaliland, there are 9 primary schools and 1 secondary school in the Hudun District.[5]
History
On February 15, 1960, before Somaliland's independence, the first democratic elections were held in British Somaliland, and Ibrahim Eid was selected as the representative from Hudun.[6]
The Somaliland government did not hold polls here during the 2005 Somaliland parliamentary election, citing Hudun as a disputed territory.[7]
In March 2012, the militant group Al-Shabaab near Hudun was exterminated by Somali Federal Army and Ethiopian Army.[8]
In November 2012, the president of Khatumo State declared victory in the battle against the Somaliland army in Hudun.[9]
In January 2013, Khatumo militia based in southern Hudun were defeated and displaced by Somaliland forces.[10] The captured militia were imprisoned in Burao.[11]
In August 2017, the Somaliland government held a voting process for national elections in Hudun, which was opposed by Hudun residents as belonging to Puntland, and a clash took place between the Somaliland army and local forces in Hudun.[12]
In May 2021, voter turnout in Hudun and other Dhulbahante clan-inhabited areas in the Somaliland parliamentary election was significantly higher than in the previous election in 2005.[13]
Notable residents
- Hassan Dahir Afqurac, Third Vice President of Puntland
- Ahmed Elmi Osman, Fifth Vice President of Puntland
- Hodan Nalayeh, Somali-Canadian social activist and entrepreneur. (1976–2019)
Demographics
The City of Hudun is primarily populated by the Dhulbahante clan, with the Naleye Ahmed - Ugadhyahan sub-lineages of the Mohamoud Garad branch of the Dhulbahante clan are well-represented.[14]
