Threats to regional peace and security in East African countries.

      Аннотация: The tranquility hitherto enjoyed by citizens of East Africa appears to have significantly atrophied; no longer is it possible to sleep with the two eyes closed nor is it reasonable to freely traverse wherever one chooses; as natural threats plague man so are man-made threats, and of late, the most dreadful and severe of the threats to humanity is that of terrorists who could strike at any time, and most often times when they do, innocent lives are wasted and valuable properties are destroyed with impunity. This study seeks to establish if there are indeed threats to mankind and if the answer is in the affirmative, bring to the fore the variants of threats with which man-kind is faced; in Great Lakes of Africa there are threats, terrorism and civil wars being the most potent to which appropriate recommendations were proffered so as enable mankind, live a more peaceful life than presently.
