MOGADISHU, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Somali leaders plan an election within 12 months, to bring an end to a string of transitional governments, and have adopted a political road map to get the anarchic Horn of Africa nation there, the United Nations said on Tuesday.

Under the road map, Somali political leaders will carry out a series of reforms related to security, the constitution, political reconciliation and good governance.

The planned reforms were recommended by a Somali preparatory committee on Aug. 23, with polls expected by Aug. 20 next year for members of a revamped federal parliament, local administrations and a president.
