An emergency fund to help fight hunger in the Horn of Africa will be set up if Heads of State adopt the proposal during a Summit recently held in Nairobi. The Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD) council of ministers proposed that the fund be set up as one way of finding a lasting solution to the disaster. The proposal is to be presented to the leaders who include President Kibaki, Sudan's Omar El Bashir and Uganda's Yoweri Museveni, at the 11th IGAD summit of the assembly of heads of state and government.
