SOMALI Prime Minister Ali Khalif Galaydh has announced the formation of his government, the first in the strife-torn Horn of Africa country for nearly a decade. The cabinet consists of 25 ministers drawn from different clans and sub-clans. Galaydh’s authority has not been recognised by the warlords who have carved up the country, which has lacked a government and has been riven by factional warfare since dictator Mohamed Siad Barre fled in 1991. -AFP
