ROME, Italy (Reuters) -- Somalia's Prime Minister Ali Khalif Galaid arrived in Rome with a delegation of ministers and businessmen on Sunday on a three-day visit in Italy.
Ali Khalif was accompanied by Foreign Minister Ismail Mahamud Hure, Interior Minister Dahir Sheikh Mohamed, the finance and reconstruction ministers and a group of deputies and businessmen.
Ali Khalif, who was named prime minister by President Abdiqassim Salad Hassan in October, will meet Prime Minister Giuliano Amato and Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Rino Serri on Monday.
On Tuesday, he is due to meet the foreign affairs committees of Italy's upper and lower houses of parliament. He will fly back to Mogadishu on Wednesday.
President Abdiqassim Salad was elected by a parliament-in-exile in neighboring Djibouti in late August. The country had not had a central government since dictator Mohamed Siad Barre was ousted in 1991.
In what could be an important step for the peace process in
Somalia, one of the faction leaders opposed to the new
administration of President Abdulkassim Salat Hassan,
has now declared his support for it.
This is a significant step towards reconciliation
President Abdulkassim
At a ceremony in the capital, Mogadishu, Hossein Haji Bod signed
an agreement that his faction would back the new government.
He said he wanted to work for reconciliation among all Somalis.
"I took the decision after I considered the difficulties our people a
re facing," he said.
He denied that he had accepted a government post or money and
said he was now going to put his armed vehicles and militiamen
behind the government.
"I have to lend my moral and material support to the administration,
because I have renounced my previous position for the sake of the Somali people," Mr Bod said.
Correspondents say that the decision could be a significant move
towards internal political reconciliation.
Security
Until recently Mr Bod was aligned with Hossein Aideed and
other militia leaders strongly opposed to the peace process that
emerged from the Djibouti peace conference earlier this year.
His stronghold is north Mogadishu and he is a former deputy to
Ali Mahdi Mohammed, who is now a member of the 245-strong assembly .
President Abdulkassim expressed his happiness at Mr Bod's
decision saying that the government now considered him "a
Somali elder working for peace and reconciliation.".
"This is a significant step towards reconciliation," he said.
The government has pledged to disarm the militia and their
warlords, who have split the country into ruling fiefdoms.
Thousands of gunmen have joined up to provide security
or the new administration in Mogadishu.
But there have been attacks on prominent supporters of the peace
process in recent weeks.
And the faction leaders have ordered their fighters not to join the
government's new forces.
Only two days ago five Mogadishu faction leaders opposed to the
new government met but failed to reach an agreement on forming
a stronger alliance that could have threatened the existence of the
government.
Hero's welcome for Somali president
BaydhaboSomalia's new President Abdulkassim Salat Hassan, has arrived in
Mogadishu to a hero's welcome and tight security.
Mr Salat who is his country's only elected
president in a decade arrived with his
newly-appointed prime minister, Ali Khalif Galayadh, and
members of his transitional
government.
He was appointed by a number of clan elders and other senior figures
at aspecial conference in Djibouti in August with the help of East African
leaders, but not all the warring Somali factions accept him as a legitimate choice.
A convoy of about 100 vehicles carrying Mr Salat and his entourage
drove through the streets of north
Mogadishu and included 1,000 heavily-armed security guards.
Hero's welcome
The president was welcomed at a military airstrip just outside the capital
and was treated to a national anthem and a red carpet.
Children climbed trees and lined the streets as women dressed in
traditional clothes sang his welcome.
Nr 4Others lined the streets waving flags and flowers to welcome the ne
w president.
Mr Salat's motorcade raced through the streets of north Mogadishu
to hotel Ramadan which will be his temporary home.
One enthusiastic teenager, 14-year-old, Abdallah Issaq summed up
what the war-torn country needed.
"We need a president and security. There is no education.
We need schools," he said as he waved a flag to welcome the president.
Estimates say up to a million people have been
killed in a civil war among the divided clans of Somalia.
Future challenges
After several failed peace conferences Somalia's
245 member parliament elected Mr Salat at a specially
convened conference in Djibouti.
Prime Minister Ali Khalif Galayadh has promised to announce
his cabinet in a few days.
Speaking to journalists before arriving with the president in
Mogadishu, he admitted that he faced a daunting challenge.
"I think we have a handle on the issue of security. There may
be some freelance elements, or one or two hotheads, but as
far as we can tell there is no organised resistance," he said.
Most of the clans from the north of the country say they will
not recognise the government.
The BBC's East Africa correspondent, Cathy Jenkins, says
after decades of rule, most warlords don't want to give up their power.

Mar aaan Axmed su’aalnay wixii ugu naxdinta badnaa intii jeelka ku jiray waxa uu ku jawaabay: "waxaa iigu naxdinta badnaa markii ay ku dhinten 3 nin oo maxaabiistayadii ka mid ahaa maydkoodiina nalagula jirey godka 1 casho, oo ay meeshaas ku googo’een oo markii Dixirigii ka soo baaxay anagii na cunay ka dibna maydkaas lafahiisii ayaa nalaga saaray oo waxaa ay yiraahdeen waa ay isku dilayaan ee lafaha uun ha laga qaado, sababtoo ah in nala dilo raali baan ka ahayn anana hadaanu haysano wax aan isku dilno waanu is dili lahayn, waxaa kale oo ka mid ahaa maalin maalmaha ka mid ah ayaa waxaa naloosoo saaray banaanka oo waxaa la soo bixiyey kutobo Quraan ah waxaa nalagu yiri kuna istaaga kitaabada, hana lagu kaadsho, kadib waxaa dhacday in inkii noogu horeeyey intuu qaaday uu dhunkadey, intayadii kalana aan sidaas oo kale yeelnay, ayaa askartii waxay maalintaas nagu ciqaabtay in ay na figeeyaan kuligayoba.

Axmed waa uu ii waday xgwarankii uu siinayay wargeysa Sahan oo wuxuu yiri "dadka halkaas ku jira wax ka warqaba ma ay jiraan, tusaale ahaan aniga xaaskaygii waa la dumaalany waxayna ii haysay 4 caruur ah, wax meesha lagu soo xiro waxaa ugu danbeeyey rag 41 nin ah oo laga soo xiray dhinaca iyo Doolow, magacyadoodana aanan wax ka aqoon, dadka halkaas ku xiran qaarkood waxaa ay ka gudbeen noloshii aadaanaha waxayna u gudbeen midi dugaaga, mana dhiman mana noola, marka aan suureeyana dhibaatada halkaas ka jirta oo aan soo aragnay waxaan oran karaa TACDIIBUL ISLAM, Dhibaatooyinka aniga halkaas iga soo gaarey waxaa ka mid ah, waan ku xiniiyo belay, midi way way dhamaatay, intay dilaacday sidii ay u dheecaameysay, tii kalena waa la iga saaray korkaygana waadba aragtaan, Mudadaa aan xiraa 11 17ka bilood ah hal maalin ma qubaysan oo nalooma ogolayn"
