Kagame is right: Why not invite Somalia to the EAC?

When it emerged that the frail government of Somalia had written to Kenya’s President Mwai Kibaki, the current chairman of the East African Community, applying to be admitted into the organisation, I sought the views of Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame.

Kagame tends to be outspoken on matters of regional integration, and is the regional leader who was easiest to reach.
