New Vision (Kampala): THE chairman of the African Union Commission, Alpha Conare, has deplored the lack of funds to deploy desperately needed troops to pacify Somalia.
A number of countries, including Britain, USA, Norway and France, had pledged financial support to the Somali mission.
Countries like Burundi, Nigeria, Ghana and others have pledged troops but they cannot deploy due to financial problems.
If other countries do not commit troops soon, it will be a total disaster for Africa," the former President of Mali said during a press conference in Kampala yesterday.
In a country with an extremly internal chaos, as is Somalia today, and a small public budget, a very good factor that can help to improve the country's situation. But this help is destinated to pay the internal war; if these money would destinate in education, there will be a bigger possibility for Somalia skip poverty trap.
