East African community : United Military Force
Defense chiefs from the East African Community member states agreed on a proposal that creates the framework for military intervention if a member state falls into crisis.
The Protocol has to go through regular chain –The Sectoral Committee on Defense- the Council of Ministers – up to the Heads of State Summit for endorsement.
With the coming elections in four EAC countries, and the fears of civil conflicts arising especially out of election violence, that Member states need to clarify under exactly what circumstances they will be willing to surrender key elements of their sovereignty to a supranational military force.
Such issues are worth to be discussed and right decisions have to be taken to avoid a breakdown of institutions that facilitate democracy and good governance.
