Mohamed was the fourth president of the country and served from January 26, 1991, and until January 1997.
Ali Mahdi’s appointment in 1991 was immediately opposed by one of the leaders of the USC, General Mohamed Farah Aideed.
Somalia declared three days of mourning during which the national flag was lowered to half-staff in honor of Mohamed, who was 86.
The seaside capital was brought to a standstill, with all the main roads blocked by the army and police. The hearse was transported to a mosque where the late president’s family paid their last respects.
Mahdi was born in the Mahaday District of the Middle Shabelle region in 1939 and became a member of parliament in 1968.
In 1969 he joined the civilian parliament before the military coup.
In the 1970s Ali Mahdi turned to business and succeeded. He also worked for the Somali Ministry of Health, specifically for the Malaria Project.
