EAC an economic opportunity

[NidarNidar]

“I think EAC countries also see Somalia’s … successful investments by Somalis in EAC countries,” Mohamed Abdi Waare, political analyst and a former president of Somalia’s Hirshabelle state, told Al Jazeera. “They also see its vast blue economic potential in its long coastline, the opportunities to participate in the reconstruction of Somalia and to leverage Somalia links with its diaspora, its links with the Middle East and its strategic location.”

“With massive natural resources, the rebuilding and reconstruction boom after the defeat of al-Shabab, Somalia will provide an excellent opportunity for regional investment in its blue economy, its infrastructural rehabilitation and its real estate and construction industries,” he added.

Doesn't the EAC want to form into the EAF eventually (East African Federation)?

The EAC is a potential precursor to the establishment of the East African Federation, a proposed federation of its members into a single sovereign state.[6] In 2010, the EAC launched its own common market for goods, labour, and capital within the region, with the goal of creating a common currency and eventually a full political federation.[7] In 2013, a protocol was signed outlining their plans for launching a monetary union within 10 years.[8] In September 2018, a committee was formed to begin the process of drafting a regional constitution.[9]

We can always leave, might as well take advantage of investment from people within the EAC.
