Somali Prime Minister Gedi to resign

Somali Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi has arrived in Baidoa to resign in front of the Parliament later on Monday following a lengthy political feud with President Abdullahi Yusuf, officials and diplomats said. The Gedi-Yusuf split had weakened the government as it faced an Islamist-led insurgency this year.
