25 years of EAC: Progress and challenges
It has been 25 years since the East African Community was revived by regional leaders. A lot has taken place since then to promote the idea of integration as a cornerstone for a united East Africa.

Daniel Kibet explores what could have gone wrong and what regional leaders ought to do to popularize EAC ideas among the citizens.
