Somali Political Rivals Agree on Path to Presidential Elections

Jan. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Somalia’s transitional government and a rival Islamist group agreed to start the process that will lead to presidential elections this month.
“The Transitional Federal Government and the Alliance for the Re-Liberation of Somalia have agreed to hold the elections for the president,” the African Union said in a statement today after a meeting in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa. The process leading to a poll will take place in Djibouti from Jan. 20 to Jan. 26.
Efforts are also under way to form an expanded parliament, which would elect the president and other state-officers, according to the AU, whose officials met representatives from the United Nations, Burundi, Uganda, Somalia and Ethiopia to review security after the withdrawal of Ethiopian troops. more..http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601116&sid=a.sYOj6Tn9ps
