Embattled Somali prime minister refuses to resign
 Somali Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi on Thursday refused to resign despite a mass exodus of cabinet ministers and mounting criticism over the deployment of Ethiopian troops to protect his feeble 18-month-old administration. Government spokesman Abdirahman Mohamed Nur Dinari said Gedi was instead working to replace the 36 ministers who have quit the 102-member cabinet in the past week calling for Gedi's resignation, even after he escaped a vote of no confidence over the weekend.Posted by: Fred 2006-08-04 |
