Burhaan Magan Warsame Temitope
Spoiler: show
RL: Mohamed Yusuf Haji (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohamed_Yusuf_Haji)

Birthday: 16 May, 1941
Education: Djabidjan City University, degree in Philosophy and Theology
Political affiliation: Independent Faithful Movement (Dhaah Party)
Positions held: Leader and Commander of the Christian Action Front
Biography: An ethnic Maadaan, Burhaan Temitope was born in Attalaxia. He studied in a Catholic school until 1960, when she moved to Djabidjan City, enrolling in the Djabidjan City University. In the early 1960s, Temitope joined several Christian labour and political organizations. Following the 1963 coup d'etat, he was arrested for participating in anti-government protests. He was released in 1965, and he moved back to Attalaxia.

From 1965 to 1968, he lived between Attalaxia and Balona, where he had several jobs, including working for a Catholic newspaper. He was fired in 1969, and he joined Traditionalist Front, an anti-communist armed group. In 1969, he founded his own organization, the Christian Action Front, also known as DXAHK, and armed group which would carried in the 1970s terrorist actions against the Social Republic of Djabidjan. The Christian Action Front aimed to establish a religious state in northern Ardia. Their members and sympathizers were almost exclusively ethnic Maadaan. It is considered that around 300-400 people -including both government officials and civilians- were killed by actions of the organization.

In 1980, DXAHK entered in negotiations with the government to a peaceful resolution of the conflict, but the negotiations failed. The Christian Action Front continued its assassination campaigns for the next two decades, although their success considerably declined. In 1996, Burhaan Temitope would be deported to Djabidjan where he was sentenced to life imprisonment. In the late 2000s, the Christian Action Front entered negotiations with the government. In 2012, the Christian Action Front announced a "unilateral end of armed actions". In 2015, the organization was renamed as Independent Faithful Movement, or Dhaah Party, renouncing armed struggle in favor of "political action and mass resistance". However, the Dhaah Party has continued to be considered a terrorist organization in Djabidjan and it was not allowed to register as a legal political organization.

Burhaan Temitope currently lives in a high security prison in southeastern Djabidjan, and -with a few exceptions- not even his lawyers are allowed to visit him.

He is married and has seven children. Two of his sons are also currently in prison (a third was released in 2018, following the end of a 18-year sentence), and another son was killed in a shootout with armed forces in 1994.

Biography: Abadir Waaberi Shermake Barre, known simply as Abadir Barre, was born in 1948, in a small town in southeastern Djabidjan. He attended a Catholic school, before enrolling in a religious seminary in Nwapase.

Barre was involved in Catholic youth organizations, and was arrested several times during the Social Republic of Djabidjan. In the early 1980s, he was a member of the Christian Conservative Alliance. He enrolled the Zilepò State College, and was involved in teaching after graduating in Comparative Theology.

However, in 1984, he founded the Justice and Development Party (also known as MCIH), a right-leaning political party, strongly associated to the Maadaan minority. Before MCIH joined the Djabidjani People's Coalition in 1988, Barre was involved in the local politics in Nwapase, where he was elected several times.

He was elected to the national parliament in 1996, as candidate of the ruling Djabidjani People's Coalition. He would be reelected in 2000 election. Although he was defeated in the 2004 by an opposition candidate, he would be elected again in the 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2021 elections.

He has also served as Chairman of the Ethnic Affairs Council from 2016 to 2021. He was appointed Minister of National Convergence and Ethnicities in 2021, becoming the oldest minister in the current administration and the only ethnic Maadaan in the government.

Barre played a role in the negotiations between the radical Christian Action Front and the Djabidjani government in the early 2000s. However, Barre has supported the Djabidani government position that the Christian Action Front successor organization, the Faithful Movement, remains banned as a terrorist organization.

Abadir Barre is a Catholic and remains considered the most prominent ethnic Maadaan in the Djabijdani government and ruling coalition. Recently, Iskaabin Aamin-ah, an armed group established by former members of the Dhaar Party and considered a terrorist organization, has described Barre as a "collaborator in the oppression of the Maadaan people" and demanded his resignation and ostracism from the community.

Barre is married and has six children eighteen grandchildren.
