Interim Somali president Abdiqasim Salad Hasan finished consultations with the clan-based parliamentary groups in Djibouti on Wednesday and has requested that all groups adhere to a Saturday deadline for recommendations and advice for prime minister candidates.

Sources in Djibouti told IRIN that the president was not expected to announce his choice of prime minister until next week, after extensive consultations.

The president and parliament remain in Djibouti - where the peace process has been hosted since May - until a government has been formed and announced.

Sources in Djibouti told IRIN that it was unlikely that the president would be travelling again in the next month.
