Some residents in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo have rejected the proposal to deploy a regional peacekeeping force.
On Monday, in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, East African Community (EAC) leaders endorsed the deployment of a regional force to help stabilise eastern DRC, a move that had also earlier been discussed by military chiefs in the regional bloc.
