Career

Somali Air Force

Abade solo-piloted her first flight on 9 September 1976.[4]

Peace campaign

In the mid-2000s, Abade waged a peace campaign, encouraging lawmakers to come together and put an end to the long-standing civil conflict in her native Somalia. Attending every major political function dressed in the colors of the Somali flag, she reportedly commanded the respect of all the attendees.[5] For her efforts in the reconciliation process that took place in neighboring Arta, Djibouti, which saw the establishment of the Transitional Federal Government, she was accorded the nickname Calansida ("The Flag-bearer").[6]

Abade describes herself as a "patriot",[6] and as "a strong lady", on account of her military experience.[5]
