The Degoodi or Degodia (Template:Lang-so, Template:Lang-ar) is a Somali clan. Members of the clan primarily inhabit Kenya, but also large part of Southern Ethiopia and places in Southern Somalia, Like many Somalis, Degoodi members trace their paternal ancestry to Samaale, through their Gardheere ancestor. They are genealogically related to the other Samaale, but in particular the Garjante and Gaalje'el with which they share the same ancestor Saransoor Gardheere Samaale.[1][2]
