Brakuje danych dotyczących rozpowszechnienia palenia tytoniu w Somalii. Niemniej jednak w 2021 roku odnotowano w kraju znaczną liczbę zgonów związanych z paleniem tytoniu – 4 998 osób. Spośród nich 3 905 stanowili mężczyźni, a 1 093 kobiety. Zgony spowodowane paleniem tytoniu stanowiły 2,1% wszystkich zgonów w kraju, w tym 2,93% wśród mężczyzn oraz 1,05% wśród kobiet. To oznacza spadek w porównaniu z rokiem 2016, kiedy całkowita liczba zgonów związanych z paleniem tytoniu wyniosła 3 868, a odsetek wszystkich zgonów przypisywanych paleniu tytoniu – 4,53%. W 2016 roku wskaźnik śmiertelności z powodu palenia tytoniu wynosił 5,5% wśród mężczyzn i 2,2% wśród kobiet. Dane te podkreślają nieustanny wpływ palenia tytoniu na stan zdrowia publicznego w Somalii, mimo spadku wskaźników śmiertelności w ciągu pięciu lat.

African Region - Increasing Daily Tobacco Prevalence Trends (Male and Female)
- No Fire, No Smoke: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction
This figure, using WHO data, shows the steep gradient of increases in smoking prevalence estimates in specific African countries, where the projected increases (both sexes) in daily smoking are 5 percent and higher.
In countries that have experienced steep falls in smoking prevalence over the years, the graphs have begun to level off, for example in Australia, suggesting there remains a substantial number of people who, for whatever reason, are determined to carry on smoking. The WHO trend data to 2025 predicts only very modest falls in smoking levels in several countries and predicts some rapid increases, mainly in Africa, the Middle East, some parts of Eastern Europe and republics of the former Soviet Union. Some of the more extreme examples include Cameroon (from 14 percent to 43 percent); Republic of Congo (from 14 percent to 48 percent) and Bahrain (from 25 percent to 60 percent).
