On March 25, EAC and SADC held a summit that was chaired by President Ruto and Emmerson Mnangagwa of Zimbabwe.
The summit resolved to appoint Uhuru, Obasanjo, Zewde, Samba-Panza, and Motlanthe to lead the peace process in the DRC.
The Eastern region of DRC has, in recent weeks, witnessed escalated violence, with the humanitarian situation deteriorating as the armed M23 rebels push deeper into the region.
The rebels have captured the town of Goma in the North Kivu province, which is home to more than a million people.
Rwanda has been accused by the DRC of supporting the M23 rebels.
However, President Paul Kagame has denied supporting M23, saying the Rwanda military has been acting in self-defence against Congo’s army and militias hostile to Kigali.
