Uganda’s President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni on Friday travelled to Arusha, Tanzania to attend the 20th Summit of East African Community (EAC) heads of of state.
According to Don Wanyama, Museveni’s press secretary, the leaders have a raft of issues to look at, including the implementation status of the EA Customs Union, progress report on political confederation, financial status of the community and report on having two deputy SG’s recruited competitively.
Other issues are endorsement of Kenya’s push for a non-permanent slot on UNSC, report on EPAs and promotion of motor vehicle assembly plant in the region.
President Museveni is also expected to hand over the rotational chairmanship of the EAC to Rwanda’s Kagame.
