SOMALI PRIME MINISTER'S RALLY: REMEMBER NEVER TO DROP YOUR GRENADE LAUNCHER.PM Ghedi Seen Below
In one of the most bizarre political rally's in history, the Honorable Ali Mohammed Ghedi had just begun his speach in the capital of Somalia, Mogadishu, in a football stadium attended by thousands of flag waving supporters, when one of his militiamen accidentally dropped his grenade launcher sending an explosion into the crowd, killing at least 14 people and injuring at least 30.
PM Ghedi had been elected in Nairobi, Kenya in 2004 and had hoped to bring stability to this war torn nation. But that is far from what is happening as tensions have emerged since the beginning of 2005, and all warlords are amassing weapons and preparing for another all out war.

PM Ghedi is hoping to bring the capital to Jowhar, which is above Mogadishu in the map below, where he has much support, since Mogadishu is still considered too violent a city to be the country's capital.
