Ahmed Hassan Awke (1943 – 16 November 2015) (Somali: Axmed Xasan Cawke) (Arabic: احمد حسن عوكة) was a veteran Somali journalist,[1] who spent most of his life in the media industry. Awke is often considered to be one of the best Somali journalists because of his very linguistic eloquence, and was often used as a favorite commentator.[2] He served as a special reporter for Somalia's late president Siad Barre until it collapsed in 1991. He hailed from the Jibril Abokor, a Sa'ad Musa sub-division of the Habr Awal Isaaq clan that predominately inhabits the Gabiley region.[3]
