Tawfiiq (Somali: Tawfiiq, Arabic: توفيق), also known as Towfiiq, is a town in the north-central Mudug region of Somalia.[citation needed] It lies beyond the Golol valley, 160 km northeast of the provincial capital of Galkayo.
The settlement was founded relatively recently, in the year 2000.[citation needed] Due to its grazing areas and natural lakes, it has evolved into a gathering point for livestock herders. In early 2011 Tawfiiq Primary and Intermediate school was also established in the town.[citation needed]
