NAIROBI, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Somali President Abdullahi Yusuf said on Friday his health was good after recovering from a bout of pneumonia and that he would soon travel for his annual liver transplant checkup in London.

"I'm fine, I am OK," Yusuf told Reuters in an exclusive interview from his hospital bed in Nairobi. "I had pneumonia, but the doctors have taken it out (treated it) and I am well now." (Editing by Charles Dick)
