None of these sources are credible. If you want demonstrate that Hobyo has a port, is ancient, or is a city, you need to provide proof. Random sources that mention these terms is extremely sloppy.

Port: Being entirely a beach, Hobyo cannot and is not a port. Ancient: Existing prior to Early Middle Ages. Proof of burden on the claim. Must back up with credible source. City: Obvious misnomer for a town with a few thousand individuals. Hobyo has never been a city. Burden of proof, again, on you. -Sageleaf
