| Video Discription | (19 Jun 1995) T/I: 10:45:36 STORY: AIDEED LOCATION: MOGADISHU DATE: 15 JUNE 1995/FILE DURATION: 1.00 Ousted warlord proclaims himself president The two main rivals of Somali warlord, Mohamed Farah Aideed, have demanded that he reverse his proclamation of president of Somalia and instead lend his support to a national peace conference. Aideed was acclaimed as the new head of state on Thursday (15/6) during a conference attended by his most loyal followers. Their action was in retaliation for a similar conference held by Aideed's rivals last weekend when he was ousted as leader of his clan's militia, and replaced by his one-time friend, Osman Atto. Aideed's former right-hand man, Ali Mahdi (also a self-styled president), said they would send notice to other Somali clans to prepare for mobilisation against Aideed if he failed to step down as president. It is generally believed that Aideed, otherwise known as "the General" by his followers, feels he has earned the right to the presidency, but has, until now, been prevented from achieving it by rival clans. The United Nations considers Aideed to have been responsible for the deaths of numerous peacekeepers who were attempting to restore law and order in his country.
