Somalia PM says he will never step down
2007-10-16
(SomaliNet) Somali’s interim Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi said on Monday that he will hold the office even if his term ends. In interview with the London based Sharqal awsat newspaper, Mr. Gedi, who is at logger heads with president Abdulahi Yusuf, said he was so proud to serve for the nation and have no concern over his cabinet. “I know there some ministers who are pushing me to ask vote of confidence from the parliament but it is clear that they are hungry for my post and that will never happen,” said Gedi.

His latest comment came as the difference he has with the president Yusuf spread into the cabinet and parliament.

Meanwhile, two grenade bombs exploded overnight near a heavily guarded hotel which houses Prime Minister Ali Gedi in Baidoa city, 250km northwest of the capital. No one was reported hurt in the explosion as the security forces sealed off the site of the blast and began investigations
