    I expected somalis to get some arab but it looks like 23andme only considers your recent ancestry.

    Because the reference Population is Somali it includes their non recent Arabian ancestry. Genetically they can be described as 50% Bantu 50% Southern Arabian like

    Accurate, if the person is indeed 93.2% Somali or close to it.
