Mahad Mohamud
Mahad Mohamud, also known as Garyaqaan, is a 36-year-old Somali TikTok star and former Uber driver who was recently deported from the United States to Somalia after a tumultuous immigration journey that began over a decade ago. Originally hailing from Mogadishu, Mahad gained popularity on social media for his humorous and critical commentary on Somali culture and politics, amassing nearly half a million followers. His return to Somalia has been marked by fear of threats from the militant group al-Shabab, as well as challenges in readjusting to life in a country plagued by instability. Despite these obstacles, Mahad has reunited with his children after ten years apart and continues to navigate the complexities of his situation while seeking safety and stability in his homeland.
