This guy is the O. J. Simpson of Japan, appeared all over major headlines in Japan, and still isn't on the Japanese Wikipedia? Why don't we create something about him there? MaghrebiFalafel (talk) 18:40, 8 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

He has stated numerous times that he is of Ethiopian (Oromo) and Yemeni descent. In this clip https://x.com/dlkadadkadiinta/status/1777549230900642273?s=46 he explains why he cosplays as a Somali American when in reality he is an American of mixed ancestry with immigrant parents.
