Etymology edit

Adado City is named after the 'Cadaad' tree that grows in the valleys of Mudug and Galgaduud regions of Somalia.

History edit

Adado has a rich history that dates back to its founding in the 1950s. The city was established by notable figures such as Sheikh Mohamud Hassan Sharmake, Sheikh Hassan Ali Dhore, Isse Eid, and others who played significant roles in its early development.

In 1978, Adado was officially recognized as a full district by President Mohamed Siad Barre, highlighting its growing importance within the region.

Following Somalia's Civil War, Adado emerged as a key destination for people fleeing conflict in both southern and northern regions of the country. The city's strategic location and relative stability made it a natural choice for those seeking refuge.

In 2008, Adado was designated as the capital city of the newly established Himan and Heeb State, further solidifying its position as a center of governance and administration.

In 2015, Adado played a crucial role in the formation of the Galmudug State of Somalia, hosting important meetings and negotiations that ultimately led to the establishment of the new state.

Throughout its history, Adado has remained a symbol of resilience and perseverance, overcoming challenges and playing a vital role in the social, political, and economic fabric of Somalia.

Transportation edit

Air transportation in the city is served by Adado International Airport as the largest airport in Galmudug. A major renovation took place in the airport in 2022, a new airport immigration was built in 2013 funded by the former regional state of Himan and Heeb.[1]
